Both versions, however, used the "Boost" midsole that makes them so comfortable (and which is not used in the lower-tier sorta-lookalikes such as the Anylander).
I have both the low and mid versions of the GTX, love them, have also used them for traveling. One other thing I really like about the GTX is, the Gore-Tex makes them very easy to clean and keep looking new.
FWIW, you can get this same shoe from the OP in a different color, also from adidas through their ebay store, for $52.80 with the current coupon active there:

Regarding comfort... yes, they are good. But not as comfortable as a squishy shoe like https://slickdeals.net/f/19112065-adidas-men-s-adizero-aruku-shoes-core-black-cloud-white-grey-one-32-8?v=1&src=SiteS
Per Adidas... While GORE-TEX remains their premium waterproofing for high-performance hiking and trail running, you will also see RAIN.RDY and Climaproof used on their more entry-level or lifestyle-focused outdoor gear.
Per AI...

In the world of outdoor gear, RAIN.RDY (an adidas technology) is generally considered waterproof, but there are some nuances to how it works compared to other materials.
Here is the breakdown of what that label actually tells you:
1. Waterproof vs. Water-Resistant
RAIN.RDY is designed to be fully waterproof. Unlike "Water-Repellent" (Shed.Rdy) which only beads off light mist, RAIN.RDY uses a laminated membrane and taped seams to prevent water from penetrating the fabric even during heavy downpours.
2. How it Works
The tech relies on two main layers:
The Membrane: A microscopic barrier that is "breathable." The holes are small enough to block liquid water droplets from coming in, but large enough to let sweat vapor escape.
The DWR Coating: The outer shell usually has a Durable Water Repellent finish to prevent the surface fabric from getting "soaked out" or feeling heavy.
3. Comparison to Gore-Tex
While Gore-Tex is the industry gold standard for extreme durability and breathability, RAIN.RDY is a proprietary alternative.
RAIN.RDY is excellent for casual rain, hiking, and golf.
Gore-Tex typically handles higher "water column" pressure (think hurricane-level rain or sitting in wet snow for hours) slightly better.
4. Maintenance Tip
If you notice water is no longer beading on the surface of your gear, the waterproof membrane is likely still fine, but the outer DWR coating has worn off. You can usually restore this by washing it with a technical cleaner (like Nikwax) or giving it a quick tumble in the dryer on low heat to reactivate the coating.
I also got a VERY HIGH foam running shoe and while it was just as comfortable... the high foam was very squishy, and was the most comfortable shoe I have ever walked on. BUT these are not bad, I have never experienced pain wearing them.
I will also add that there seems to be plenty of room... I'm a 10.5 wide, so I purchased a 11 and it worked for me very well.
