Hiking boots don’t all have to look alike if they have a more niche purpose or target audience – and the THE NORTH FACE Chilkat III Hiking Boots is a great example.
This boot looks a bit different with the high-rise shape and thick sole. Users are buying this in the hope that it will prove to be a reliable winter boot.
Is this the case or are they disadvantages in the design?
The Salomon Authentic LTR GTX Hiking Boots have a traditional look to them that will appeal to anyone that wants a simple boot that will hold up to long walks.
There is nothing excessively heavy duty in the specification but there are promises about comfort, durability and protective materials.
Is this product able to live up to the expectations of buyers?
Walking shoes don’t have to be massive, rugged boots to be effective and the Salomon Evasion 2 GTX Hiking Shoes promise to be a great example of that.
These walking shoes are a lot lighter with less material and apparent support than traditional boots.
At the same time, they look good with the different colours and shapes in the suede/leather materials.
This looks like a good choice for casual walkers but it is comfortable and protective?
The Meindl Bhutan MFS Hiking Boots are a smart looking boot that has a little more style for men than some of the other rugged models on the market.
How long that look with remain after some long walks is an important question, however.
There are also some great sales promises here about the quality of the materials and the performance of the boot on long walks.
So, can this walking boot hold up to the terrain and the high expectations of users?
The Northwest Territory Ladies Peak Walking Boots are a women’s walking shoe that doesn’t immediately look like every women’s walking shoe – which is a good thing.
Some models can appear to be thin, light and a little too focus on style.
There are lots of promises in the specification about this hiking boot. There is talk about the premium quality with the leather upper, the waterproofing across the shoe, the solid gum rubber sole and supportive heel.
It looks like it will hold up to long walks but does it deliver?
