NEW BALANCE HIERRO V9 GORE-TEX® | BREATHABLE AND WATERPROOF TRAIL SHOES

Waterproof trail running shoes to face any weather

When the terrain gets wet and the sky is unforgiving, the New Balance Hierro v9 GORE-TEX® is the answer: a hiking and trail running shoe designed to accompany you year-round, rain, snow, or shine.

WHY THESE SHOES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE

The Hierro v9 GORE-TEX® combines total water protection with New Balance's most advanced cushioning. This is more than just another trail shoe: it is a technical tool that solves the biggest problem in hiking and trail running in wet climates—wet feet—without sacrificing breathability, grip, or comfort on uneven terrain.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• GORE-TEX® Membrane — waterproof fabric that protects against wind, rain, and water without compromising foot breathability.
• Dual-density Fresh Foam X midsole — softer top layer for immediate comfort and a firmer base layer that provides stability on uneven surfaces.
• Vibram® Megagrip™ outsole with Traction Lug™ — redesigned tread pattern that offers superior grip on both wet and dry terrain.
• Toe Protect Technology — reinforced toe cap that protects the foot from impact against rocks, roots, and uneven ground.
• Gusseted tongue — secure fit that also prevents dirt and small stones from entering while hiking.
• Mesh and synthetic upper — breathable and durable material that protects the foot without adding weight.
• Lightweight — 345 g (12.2 oz) per shoe, a controlled weight for its level of protection.
• 4 mm drop — heel-to-toe height difference designed for a natural and stable stride.

EXPERT ADVICE

If you usually go walking or training in areas with mud, rivers, or frequent rain, GORE-TEX® makes a real difference compared to a conventional trail shoe. However, since it is waterproof, it is slightly less breathable on very hot days, so save it for autumn, winter, and spring, or for high mountain routes.

NEW BALANCE GUARANTEE — FEARLESSLY INDEPENDENT SINCE 1906

New Balance was founded in Boston in 1906 as a small company making orthopedic arch supports, established by British immigrant William J. Riley. Almost two decades later, it remains one of the few privately owned global athletic brands, with its own factories in the United States and the United Kingdom for some of its collections—a commitment to local manufacturing that few firms in the sector maintain. As an official distributor, at Core Surfing we guarantee the authenticity of every pair and direct brand support for any issues.

USAGE AND CARE

Clean mud and dirt with a soft brush and warm water; do not use a washing machine or dryer. Always let them air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, which can damage the GORE-TEX® membrane and midsole foams. If storing for the season, do so in a dry, ventilated place with clean soles to preserve the grip of the Vibram® rubber.
