If you’re a frequent hiker, explorer, or outdoorsman, you’ve gone through your fair share of footwear. For that reason, you can never have enough hiking shoes. Backups for your backups are always good to have unless you don’t have any at all. Then, well, you’ll need some. Either way, adidas has you covered today with an excellent Amazon deal. The adidas men’s Terrex Free Hiker 2.0 sneakers are $80 off, down to $120 instead of their usual $200. They’re built for all-day outdoor adventures, with performance features that will improve your experience like step-in stability, an EVA stabilization frame, and BOOST energy capsules — more on that below. This deal won’t last long if you’re interested and there are a couple of styles on sale right now.

Why shop these adidas Men’s Terrex Free Hiker 2.0 sneakers for off-trail hiking?

Anyone looking for a reliable and solid pair of hiking shoes would certainly be happy with these. They’re comfortable, which is perhaps the most important point you could make, but also flexible and supportive. That support comes in the form of proprietary technology from adidas. For example, the EVA stabilization frame provides a stable footbed regardless of terrain. Moreover, the adidas BOOST energy capsules give your feet extra power and momentum by offering a springy return.

They also feature step-in stability with the frame and external heel clip, and a continental rubber outsole that offers excellent traction while protecting your feet from wet and dry elements. An adaptive stretch knit collar hugs the ankle to prevent dirt and debris from sneaking its way into the shoe. A couple of styles are available, like black and beige, or carbon and black, along with sizes ranging from men’s 6 up to men’s 14.

What you’ll really want to know, however, is how they hold up. They were made for the great outdoors, after all. The answer is very good, whether on the trail or off. Even rocky, challenging terrain is no match for these mid-top hiking shoes.

But then there’s the price. Normally $200 they’re on sale today for $120, which saves you $80. That is a great deal that you cannot beat for such a reliable pair of hiking shoes.

Accutron DNA series: A modern twist on a legendary watch brand
A closer look at Accutron DNA's sleek designs and innovative features
Accutron DNA series

If you’re familiar with the Accutron watch brand, you already know about their rich history — not just in innovation, but in style. They introduced the first fully electronic watch in 1960. Throughout the 1960s, their mechanisms were used to keep time in U.S. satellites and on various NASA space missions, paving the way for the modern era of electronic and quartz timekeeping. And the brand has continued to release modern watches inspired by their rich heritage.
Design and aesthetics

Accutron continues that tradition with the Accutron DNA series, having introduced four new colors in July 2024: green, blue, orange, and red. We had the opportunity to experience the red model firsthand. Each version of the DNA line offers distinct accent combinations, adding to their individuality. While the case is stainless steel on all models, the finish and tone differ based on the chosen strap.

A stylish steel watch pays tribute to Vacheron
Vacheron Constantin Historiques 222

To celebrate its 270th anniversary and usher in the new year, Vacheron unveiled a steel variant of the Historiques 222, a watch that dates back to 1977.

The original Historiques 222, the brainchild of Jorg Hysek, was rolled out with a pioneering design. Most watches had a sports-like look in the '70s, but the Historiques 222 changed all that, bridging two worlds with a formal and casual design. It featured an integrated bracelet and a case topped by a fluted bezel and stamped with a Maltese cross at 5 o'clock. It also featured an ultra-thin Calibre 1120 and measured 3.05 mm, making it the world’s thinnest full-rotor automatic movement at the time.
