What is its waterproofing ability?

Thanks to their PFC-free waterproof lining, these boots keep your feet dry for up to six hours, even in damp conditions. The materials used for the upper are water-repellent and tests in the laboratory as well as field tests validate their waterproofing ability.

What’s the grip like?

The OUTDOOR CONTACT rubber outsole, together with the 5 mm studs, provide solid grip on soft, wet or dry ground. The efficiency of these boots has been verified in the laboratory and in field tests, guaranteeing good stability, no matter what the surface.

Foot support

Thanks to its mid upper and two self-locking hooks, the lacing can be adjusted very precisely, thus strengthening ankle support. The leather insert positioned in the mid-foot area secures the foot.

How durable are they out in the field?

Designed for uneven trails, these boots offer protection at the front with their rubber stone guard, at the back with their synthetic reinforcements, and they are reinforced by leather inserts in the most exposed areas. These elements make them more shock- and rub-resistant.

How much it weighs

Weighing 985 g in UK size 9, they remain lightweight and dynamic, while still offering an excellent level of protection.

Comfort and cushioning

With its midsole made of thick EVA foam, it absorbs shocks effectively and offers optimal comfort, even over long distances. Perfect for staying comfortable even when the terrain becomes more demanding.

How to care for your boots

Leave your boots to air dry, without any source of heat. Remove dried mud using a hard cleaning brush, and treat stains with warm water. Regularly restore waterproofing with a suitable spray. Only store them away when they are completely dry.

Eco-design sits at the heart of our products

We design our products by reducing their environmental impact, from the design phase. This entails using recycled materials, PFC-free coatings, more water- and energy-conservative processes, such as the dope dyeing technique, which colours the fibre at source, thus reducing water consumption and polluting effluent.

Storage advice

Store your boots in a well-ventilated room away from light and moisture.

Test

To meet your requirements, Quechua products are tested in the mountains in conditions you will encounter during your hikes.
Our teams, as well as a tester panel (made up of partners, ambassadors and customers), test products throughout their development until they go to market.
