The Hanwag Alaska Wide GTX is a men’s trekking boot built for backcountry adventures and extended mountain hikes. Its wide fit and robust construction make it suitable for walkers who need extra room without sacrificing support on uneven terrain.
Featuring a nubuck leather upper, this boot combines durability with a bit of give as it adapts to your foot shape over time. The built-in Gore-Tex membrane keeps moisture out while allowing perspiration to escape, so feet stay dry when conditions turn damp. Underfoot, the Vibram Fuora outsole offers a lug pattern designed for grip on rocks and loose ground, helping you stay steady on steep or slippery paths.
Gore-Tex is a waterproof, breathable layer that blocks rain and puddles but lets sweat vapor pass through, helping to prevent damp, uncomfortable feet. The Vibram Fuora sole uses a tough rubber compound and deep treads to provide traction, durability and stability across a variety of surfaces.

Hanwag says about the Alaska Wide GTX
Comfortable, robust and enormously versatile – an absolute trekking classic. The Alaska GTX copes with everything from day trips to demanding hikes and week-long outdoor trekking adventures. Thanks to its GORE-TEX lining, it keeps your feet dry even in mud and rain. This significantly reduces the risk of blisters. The high upper has a one-piece construction that stabilises and protects the ankle area. Built to last: Even after many years of service the Alaska can easily be resoled ready for further use. Made over a Wide Last, which provides extra room at the front and ball of the foot, the Wide version prevents pressure points for wider feet at the forefoot.
