Our take on the Oboz Women's Katabatic Mid B-Dry

The Oboz Women's Katabatic Mid B-Dry is a mid-height women's hiking boot with a waterproof B-Dry membrane, a lace-up upper and Oboz's TRAIL TREAD rubber outsole. It uses an 8 mm heel drop and a stability-focused sole, aimed at three-season day hikes and wet-weather trails. It is priced at $71.67 at the store tracked as of October 28, 2026, which is also the highest price seen since then, so there is no cheaper point in the recent record to wait for.

Questions and answers

Is the Oboz Katabatic Mid B-Dry worth it?
At $71.67 as of October 28, 2026, it is a low price for a waterproof mid hiking boot. It suits three-season day hikers who want ankle support and wet-weather protection.
How does it compare with the low-cut Katabatic?
The mid version adds a higher collar for ankle support and a bit more weight. The low-cut is lighter and cooler for fast hikes on easy trails.
Is it really waterproof?
Yes. It uses Oboz's B-Dry waterproof membrane, and owners report dry feet in rain and shallow puddles. Waterproof liners breathe less, so expect warmer feet in summer.
What is the heel drop?
It has an 8 mm heel-to-toe drop, which is higher than many trail runners. Hikers used to a lower drop may need a few walks to adjust.
What is in the box?
The box contains the pair of boots and the stock laces. Insoles and care products are not included.
When is it cheapest?
The lowest recorded price is $71.67 on October 28, 2026, which is also the only price in the record. There is no cheaper point to wait for based on that history.
