About this deal

One thing to note is the casual, sneaker design of the Adidas Skychaser. Compared to other hiking boots, they are light and stylish enough to wear as streetwear. They are a smart choice for hikers who get out on the trail a few times a year but want to make the most of their boots.

The fit of these shoes comes up true to size with a form-fitting and supportive mid section and comfortably roomy toe-box. However, the transition from mid section to toe box is a sharp transition and the shoes were noticeably tighter around the start of the ball of the foot. Walkers with narrower feet will find these shoes great, however, anyone with wider feet may not find these a good fit. It may come as a slight surprise to find out that the Adidas Terrex Skychaser Tech GTX, a lightweight shoe from one of the world's largest apparel brands, scores higher than expected on the sustainability front. I’m a journalist who covers gear for Forbes and writes about the outdoors for publications like Outside, Travel and Leisure, and SELF. You can read my comprehensive tested review of the best hiking boots which includes the Adidas Terrex Skychaser 2.0 as the best value hiking boot. The Skychasers feature a waterproof Gore-Tex membrane on the interior that keeps our water as long as you do not submerge the boot above the ankle cuff. Is The Adidas Terrex Skychaser 2.0 A Lightweight Boot? Comfort feels like the real USP of the Adidas Terrex Skychaser Tech GTX. Straight out of the box these boots felt great and continued to feel great throughout three long days of walking and scrambling.

Customer reviews

The rise in popularity of lightweight, cushioned hiking footwear over the last few years has opened up a whole new world of choices for walkers when it comes to boots and shoes. And some, like the Adidas Terrex Skychaser Tech GTX, even take their inspiration from the world of trail running shoes. The sole is constructed from Continental Rubber, of tyre fame, with directional chevron-shaped lugs that offer plenty of grip. Finally, an Adidas 'Boost' midsole – the kind you'll find on some of the best trail running shoes– offers support and responsiveness. Adidas Terrex Skychaser XT review: performance and comfort Regarding the shoe itself, the upper is made from about 50% recycled material, the midsole plate is bio-based, and the water repellent finish is PFC-free. Price and competition

The padding around the ankle is good too. As mentioned at the start of the review, the Skychaser Tech could easily fit into the hiking shoes category, but it's that high and padded ankle cuff that sets it apart as a boot for us. Not only does it add an extra layer of protection against ankle bashes and debris entering the boot, but when it's all laced up that extra layer of padding around the ankle also adds an extra layer of comfort. The Adidas Terrex shoe line tends to run true to size, although the shoes run slightly wider than brands like Nike and Scarpa. If you have narrow feet, you may want to size down a half a size. Is The Adidas Terrex Skychaser 2.0 Good For Winter? Minimal padding and bulk make these an excellent choice if you get hot feet while walking or for walking in warmer conditions. They're very breathable too – good for spring, summer and autumn walks.

One big downside was the amount of heel lift we experienced; there was a lot of movement while walking and while we didn't experience any blistering, this was disappointing. It's a situation that could potentially be partially remedied by some silicone gripper dots on the inside of the heel cup.
