The Icebug Rover 2 RB9X GTX is a waterproof hiking shoe built around Icebug's RB9X rubber outsole, which grips wet rock, roots and packed trails better than the softer rubber on most hiking shoes. A Gore-Tex membrane keeps feet dry, and the 12 mm drop and cushioned EVA/polyurethane midsole make it comfortable for long days on mixed terrain. At about 11.8 oz it is a mid-weight shoe, not a fastpacking racer. It suits hikers and walkers who deal with rain and slick ground and want traction first; rivals like the Salomon X Ultra or Merrell Moab are lighter or softer but rarely match the RB9X grip on wet surfaces.
