Danner Enters New Territory with Thorofare Boot

Published by

For Fall 2019, Danner will be expanding its offerings to hunters and outdoor enthusiasts with the release of two new boots: the Thorofare and the fifth generation Pronghorn. While the Thorofare charts new territory for Danner,  the Pronghorn is one of Danner's enduring designs–but with a few upgrades.

The Thorofare is truly unlike anything Danner has produced in the past. Danner designed the boot to tackle even the most extreme slopes, terrains, and altitudes. The boot includes GORE-TEX, making it both waterproof and breathable, and a rubber rand from heel to toe for durability. Every feature of this boot is designed to keep you comfortable in the worst of conditions, and on top of that, it's a damn good looking boot.

FEATURES:
• GORE-TEX waterproof breathable lining
• Full-grain leather upper construction with one piece vamp for durability
• Full rubber rand provides full heel-to-toe coverage for protection from the harshest conditions and terrain
• Pull ball bearing lacing system quickly tightens and distributes comfort around the foot
• Vibram® Tsavo outsole provides versatile traction control
• Dynamic Response System (DRS) provides optimal support and stability under foot
• Made in USA
• $499.95 (Direct from Danner)

Also for 2019, Danner is releasing their fifth generation of the Pronghorn boot with some sweet upgrades. The Pronghorn will now feature Danner's Terra Force Next platform, with an upper built from Danner's 851 last.  Danner has taken all the best features from the old and the new and rolled them into this hunting boot. Additionally, you have several options for color and camo patterns and levels of insulation, making this boot useful no matter what kind of climate you are hunting in.
