Inov-8 says: 

Our toughest ever boot just got even tougher. Now boasting a new super-durable nylon ripstop upper material, the ROCLITE PRO G 400 GTX V2 is fully kitted out for the gnarliest of hikes and all fearless adventures. With enhanced comfort, improved protection and increased support also featuring as part of the V2 upgrade, this waterproof boot is ready for the wild, no matter how tough the distance or terrain. A GRAPHENE-GRIP rubber outsole delivers the world’s toughest traction and completes the package.

Our Verdict

These newly updated Roclite Pros have built on what was already a fantastic hiking shoe; they have improved the durability of the overall shoe, and the new midsole has enhanced comfort. The shoes are incredibly comfortable straight out-of-the-box. The graphene sole is very well laid out and grippy, which gave me confidence in various conditions, including wet rock and grassy slopes; with the tread not being massively deep, it may need help in the worst muddy conditions.

The new honeycomb durable nylon ripstop upper material is hardwearing and provides excellent protection. The Gore Waterproof Lining also does its job wonderfully. Overall, this is a very capable boot that offers many advantages. A fast and light hiking shoe with the support of a hiking boot and the cushion of a trail runner.

In-depth Reviews:

• Roclite Pro G 400 GTX V2 Review – “A Boot that offers more protection and comfort than the award-winning original”

Features

• New super-durable nylon ripstop upper material features a tighter weave that increases durability and better protects the GORE-TEX membrane underneath. Super-tough yet still flexible.
• Updated heel lock panel gives even greater support and stability over the toughest of terrains. It works by pulling from the bottom hook to your heel bone, providing a locked-in fit and feel.
• The introduction of the trusted POWERFLOW MAX midsole cushioned foam gives greater energy return and underfoot bounce, plus more durability. Makes your boots last longer and your hikes more energy efficient.
• Graphene-enhanced rubber delivers the world’s toughest grip – insane sticky traction AND increased durability, no compromise. 50% stronger, 50% more elastic, 50% harder wearing, scientifically proven.
• Renowned for their versatility, the 6mm deep ROCLITE lugs bite and hold across all types of terrain, no matter how hard or soft. They’ve also been carefully positioned to prevent debris from sticking to the outsole. Water dispersion channels give extra grip on slick surfaces.
• A rockplate, called META-PLATE PRO, aligns with the foot’s metatarsals, providing underfoot protection from rocks, while working in tandem to aid the natural flex and spring through every stride.
• GORE-TEX XCR (Extended Comfort Range) protection is waterproof and breathable, keeping feet dry and comfortable. The high-cut padded ankle collar further enhances protection and comfort, as well as increasing stability under a backpack. = Stack heights (midsole only) of 20mm in the heel and 12mm in the forefoot, combined with an 8mm drop, help deliver more underfoot comfort.
• The lacing system has been designed for fluid lace movement when putting the boot on or taking it off. Adjustments are easy to make to ensure the perfect, comfortable fit. The top two hooks on either side include grooves that grip the laces when tied, aiding a secure hold.
