Had bought a couole pairs of the Hoka Anacapa low GTX for wirk and they're great shoes. I noticed in this new version the top is mesh. I can tell you they're waterproof. Only thing I don't lije about them is there's a clicking noise everytime I take a step. I looked at the reviews on Hoka and apparently it's not just this shoe it's all their newer models. It's a great shoe if you can get over the clicking noise.
