Hiking expert Julia Clarke was thoroughly impressed after testing these boots in the Scottish Highlands for her four-and-a-half-star review for Advnture.
"What stands out above all else with these shoes is how comfortable they are straight away," said Julia, who took on several long-distance treks over tricky terrain.
"They’re secure without rubbing in the way a good pair of trail runners is, and the sole is really robust without being so stiff as to limit movement."
She was also keen on their stable Max-Grip outsoles, which feature 4mm lugs for maximum traction.
"The build delivers just a nice, stable ride where I’m never worried about turning an ankle, and that even went for when I was bushwhacking through overgrown and steep terrain carrying a stretcher."
