It's common to find boots with unnecessary features that add extra weight to your feet.

The Freemont Mid is a lightweight boot that has features and benefits you will actually need and use.

Northside believes that connecting with nature can be more affordable, by removing a bunch of fancy features that don't improve your experience.

So here's what really matters (explained in plain English):

• Waterproof Seam Sealed Construction - Freemont Mid is sealed with specially made waterproof tape that creates a water-tight barrier, keeping your feet dry when hiking in wet conditions. So you don't have to worry about bringing along a change of socks.
• EVA Midsole - Serious cushioning for your feet to provide you with all-day comfort while hiking in your Freemont Mid.
• Heel Pull Strap - The strap makes it easy to get your feet in and out of the boots. So you can get right to your outdoor adventure without spending too much time putting them on.
• Washable/Breathable Insole - New insole every time you wash, but still gives you the same comfort and performance benefits as it was brand new. Allows air to circulate in and around the insole, keeping your feet cool through hikes in hot weather.
• Rubber Traction Outsole - The pattern on the sole is designed for exceptional grip when the trails are wet and slippery, keeping you safe and on your feet.
• Speed Lacing System - This allows for quick and easy lacing of your boots without wasting any precious time.

You can invest a lot of time and money in your outdoor adventures, but you shouldn't have to overpay for the fancy gear you don't need.

Northside believes that footwear for the regular person doesn't have to be overpriced, packed with useless features, or require an instruction manual to understand.

We aim to connect families with nature by providing footwear that's built and priced with the features you actually need, to do the things you actually want to do.

30 Day Try On Period

Please feel free to take 30 days to try on your new Northside boots to make sure they're the right fit for you. All we ask is you look after them, keep the tags on and don't wear them outside so if you do need to return them for any reason, they are in a resaleable condition and don't go to waste.
