Erem Xerocole Desert Hiking Boot – Men’s

The Xerocole (Zee-Ra-Kohl) is Erem’s performance men’s desert hiking boot. Whether you’re hiking in Moab or tackling the Arizona Trail, the Xerocole provides all day comfort, best in class breathability, durability and protection while on the trail. And the best part? The Xerocole is Biocircular, meaning it is made only from materials with 100% proven paths back to nature, is repairable through the Erem Reboot program, and can be re-streamed into new, ‘tough as a cactus’ boots over and over again.The Xerocole is designed with a roomier fit. Therefore, We recommend if you have wide or fuller feet choose your normal size. For people with a narrow or low volume foot, we recommend sizing down 1/2 size from your measured or usual size (e.g if you are normally an 11, go with a 10.5). These boots were built for some of the worlds toughest and most beautiful terrain. Using only materials with proven paths back to nature, it’s amazing that something so sustainable can also look good, feel good, and be so durable in rugged desert conditions. Erem is changing the footwear game, and we’re here for it.
