Mens Terrex Anylander Mid Top Rain.rdy Hiking Shoes - Waterproof Men's

Our review of the adidas Mens Terrex Anylander Mid Top Rain.rdy Hiking finds these shoes aimed at hikers who want a waterproof, lightweight mid-top that balances protection with everyday comfort. The single biggest reason to buy is the RAIN.RDY membrane that reliably keeps feet dry on wet trails while the EVA midsole keeps weight down at 390 g (size US 9) for less fatigue on long walks. The shoe blends practical trail traction, supportive cushioning, and a modern look, making it a sensible option for day hikes and damp conditions.

Key Features

• Waterproof RAIN.RDY: The waterproof membrane keeps feet dry in rain and puddles so you can keep going when trails get wet.
• Lightweight cushioning: The EVA midsole provides step-absorbing comfort without adding excessive weight, helping with trail endurance.
• Traxion outsole: Lugs designed for rugged terrain maximize grip in multiple directions for confident footing on loose or muddy surfaces.
• Mid-top support: The mid-top profile offers added ankle coverage and a more secure feel than low-cut hikers during uneven terrain.
• Sustainable materials: The upper is made in part from a blend of recycled and renewable materials, reducing environmental impact while maintaining durability.

Who It's For

These shoes suit day hikers, commuters who face wet sidewalks, and anyone who values a waterproof mid-top with lightweight cushioning and solid multi-directional grip. They are particularly good for people who want a modern-looking hiking shoe that transitions easily from trail to town.

Those who need heavy mountaineering boots, extended multi-day backpacking footwear with thick protective soles, or a very rigid ankle system should look elsewhere; the Anylander prioritizes agility and comfort over extreme durability and maximal underfoot protection.
