Absolutely ??

North face makes the best hiking shoes by far, the quality and long lasting of the shoe is surpassed by none.

Awesome hiker!.

The sole is good and grippy, they broke in really easily and are very comfortable to walk in. Very supportive.

best shoe ever

I found these shoes over 15 years ago and couldn't believe how perfectly they fit and felt so comfortable. I have worn out a couple of pair and always get a new pair when its time to. They work in the forest and on the streets and great when its wet outside.

So Good I Bought Twice

Second pair I've purchased. Tough on the outside, comfortable on the inside. Great stability-- like 4 wheel drive for my feet.

Reliable and comfortable hiking shoe

This sturdy shoe is comfortable and well-tailored. I enjoy using the shoe for hiking, camping, and disc-golfing. The outer sole is flexible enough for comfort yet also allows for grip without tearing up trails.

One of My Favorites

These are my new all-weather go-to shoe. Very comfortable. I like the shoe so much that I also bought the Hedgehog 3 hiking boot, too. This will be the first shoe I look for when the current pair needs to be replaced.

I will buy The North Face shoes again

Very warm. There is an isolation layer in the middle of these shoes, so, even if I walk on ice or snow, my feet will never feel cold. Also, these shoes are light-weighted, I don't feel tired after long-distance walk.

I would and have bought them again

This is my fourth pair of Hedgehog shoes dating back several years. What I like most is the style is more similar to a regular running shoe and looks less like a hiking shoe. So I wear them all of the time. And being water proof means I can wear them on wet mornings without looking like I am going on a hike.

Go-to all-purpose shoe that I buy every year

I have purchased Hedgehog hiking shoes every year for over a decade now. They are exceptional shoes. They really are waterproof and they hold up really well in all sorts of conditions. The only thing that wears out on them is the traction, which is the only reason I have to replace them every 9-12 months after frequent use. I use them in all kinds of environment and they are my go-to all-purpose shoe.

A good shoe gone bad?

I've bought myself a new pair nearly every year but this shoe is a shadow of what it used to be. Cheap sole that wears prematurely, fabric lace loops.

Destroyed my heels

They have a seam right along the back of the heel that just rubs and turns my heels into a mess every time I tried to hike in them

About The North Face Hedgehog 3 Waterproof Hiking Shoes for Men

FEATURED REVIEWS

Hedgehog 3 shoes are the best around. Pricey but worth it!!

By Tim C.

I require an orthotic in my shoe due to a motorcycle accident decades ago. After years of searching for the right shoe that would support the orthotic heel cup insert while providing a shoe that looks good and lasts is simply a great thing.

Must buy!

By Stephen

I specifically buy this line because this is the most dependable shoe that I have worn for work and it is extremely comfortable! I'm and HVAC tech and I need something waterproof and breathable and this shoe does it! It doesn't matter if it's the low top for summer or the mid for winter this is a great pick!
