Which is better for long backpacking trips?

The Taurus Pro GTX Mid. Its split leather upper and stability-control sole handle heavier loads and rough ground better than the lighter Innox Pro.

Which is better for fast day hikes?

The Innox Pro GTX Mid. It is lighter, more flexible, and has a support frame that keeps it stable without the leather boot's weight.

The Taurus Pro's split leather upper should outlast the Innox Pro's textile and synthetic upper, though both use rubber outsoles that wear with mileage.

Is the Innox Pro worth the extra $10?

If you want a lighter boot and value the higher rating, yes. If you want maximum durability and grip, the cheaper Taurus Pro is the better buy.

Do both keep feet dry?

Yes. Both are listed as waterproof with GTX membranes, so wet weather is covered on either.

Which has better traction?

The Taurus Pro, with 5mm-deep lugs on its LOWA LIMA outsole. The Innox Pro is slip resistant but has a less aggressive tread.
