In the most demanding of conditions, lace up the Women’s Jannu II GTX, a classic technical hiking boot from The North Face®. The upper on this high-cut boot is engineered from full-grain, one-piece leather with Gore-Tex® waterproof protection and breathability, and is complemented by a rubber toecap, heel mudguards and debris-beating tongue. Stability-wise, the boot’s X-Frame™ crib lends support for the kind of side-to-side movement that is inevitably encountered on undulating terrain under a heavy load, while Heal Cradle™ technology keeps heels precisely positioned and protected. Sure-footed stickiness on slick surfaces is ensured by a Vibram® rubber outsole that incorporates grippy, self-cleaning lugs. This is a boot to carry you through the longest of hiking hauls.

NORTHOTIC™ FOOTBED
The Northotic™ is a multi-density footbed that provides enhanced stability, support and cushioning on the trail.
GORE-TEX® FOR FOOTWEAR
Provides durable waterproof protection from rain and snow.
VIBRAM® OUTSOLE TECHNOLOGIES
We collaborated with Vibram, long respected for quality and durability, to create various outsoles (Vibram® Humbolt Outsole, Vibram® Mikeno Outsole, Vibram® Walsh Outsole, and Vibram® Rubber Outsole Compound) with superior traction, stability and protection.
NORTHFIT™
NorthFit™ outfit the outdoor athlete with the most precise fit between the human foot and a footwear last, as they both relate to the demands of the activity.
X-FRAME™
X-Frame™ is a form-embracing, TPU crib placed on the medial or lateral side of the hiking boot. This structure governs pronation while also bolstering support for side-to-side movements seen on trails and uneven surfaces.
HEAL CRADLE™
The North Face® Heal Cradle™ consists of a polyurethane (PU) foundation with five pegs protruding vertically from it. A soft EVA panel is placed over the pegs, locking the two together like building blocks. The top layer of soft EVA has a slightly cupped shape that literally cradles the heel, helping to stabilize it in the process. It also works with the underlying PU to absorb impact. Lastly, it offers more lateral/medial stability, positioning the foot for a smooth transition into the next stage of the stride cycle.
