These featherweight boots bend like a contortionist

With a pair of good wool socks, Lems Boulder Boot are the perfect shoe for casual camping trips and packing for travel in general. Not only are they ultra lightweight at under 10 ounces — which makes them arguably the lightest boot out there — but the water-resistant nylon and full-grain leather roll up into a ball so they're not taking up half your carry-on.

While it's not waterproof (decision was made to not sacrifice breathability), it has a natural barefoot fit that makes it not only super efficient, but damn comfy as well — for everything from campfire to fireplace, wooded hike to city exploration.
