The Outlander from Lems is a 100% waterproof gusseted hiking boot with a grippy, lugged tread. They are now constructed to be zero drop, but the optional insoles have a 3.5mm drop. This can make it a great option for transitioning.
Stay above the slush in the Outlander! Plus, use them throughout the year for longer hikes when a little support can help do some of the work so you can stay out and about longer.
While this boot itself is zero drop, as of June 2024 the optional insoles have a small drop (1.5mm for the Minimal Cork insole or 3.5mm for Adventure Poly insole). You can see their breakdown of which models have which insoles here.
We find most of our customers go up half a size in this model. The Outlander is unlikely to stretch over time.
The Outlander uses Lems's Standard shape last. Fit information:
The Outlander has a firmer sole that offers a little more support than other minimal shoes. The outsole's tread pattern, material, and lugs will give you have a great grip in various conditions.
The Outlander provides very little ground feel, and may be a good choice for people with tenderness in the soles of the feet to get more room for their toes while experiencing a protective walking experience. Some customers may like being a bit higher off the ground with up to 2cm stack height in winter, as you will be further away from the cold of the ground.
The Outlander uses a variety of materials for textural interest and style.
Upper: Nylon and leather
Lining: Polyester with breathable 100% waterproof membrane
We recommend using a waterproofing spray on the uppers so that any dirt or slush will slide off, making maintenance easy. However, the boots are fully waterproof by themselves. Spot clean, and wipe street salt off the leather portions to keep them looking gorgeous longer.
The Outlander can be used for hiking any time, and their waterproof quality makes them a great choice for winter or just rainy days. They are extremely comfortable for days when you'll be up and about for many hours, like long treks through nature or sightseeing around a new city.
If you're used to extremely supportive and stiff footwear these are a step in the right direction: get closer to the ground while giving your toes room to spread out. Let your anatomy and movement adjust closer to a barefoot experience before diving all the way in: it's a gentle way to start your transition.

Shipping Options:
Discounted Flat Rate according to Region via Canada Post
We are introducing Discounted Flat Rates for customers based on where you live in Canada.
Once your cart total reaches $100* or $200, a flat rate will be applied to your check-out based on your postal code.
The flat rates include: free, $5, $10, and $15 (based on your cart total and where you live)
*if your cart total is under $100, regular Expedited shipping will be applied
Why the new shipping rates?
This new tiered flat rate system was created based on a need for our small business to catch up with rising costs of shipping, whilst also giving our customers a better shipping rate than if they were to pay at full cost. To make this fairer for everyone, we created these flat rates based on the region of the shipping address, as shipping costs are determined by region.
