Vasque Inhaler

This light-on-any-feet model requires music – or chirping birds – to make it work.  The soundtrack of adventure plays on as gravity-defying traction pushes you across rolling and extreme terrain.  Active Junky testers chased down a pair of these 872g fast movers with positive results.  More similar to high performance European models we’ve tested, Inhaler promotes hot weather superiority; the resilient toe rand, bouncy midsole and easy lacing fit day hiking to extended trekking.  Moderate volume makes this model more athletic that others in the Vasque line.  A beefy upper tongue is the only overkill on a streamlined, supportive hiker. Active Junky envisions three-season adventure travel in a panelized build tuned for speed and agility.
