£20.00

This lightweight multi-activity shoe from ALS weighs 592g (pair, size 9). It has a neoprene lining with mesh upper, an elasticated lacing system and a rubber sole that provides good grip. It’s easy to pack and carry as additional footwear and great for watersports. However,  the sole is very flexible and the shoe isn’t waterproof. It’s not ideal for rocky ...

Hi-Tec Altitude II

£30.00

These sandals from Hi-Tec are not as comfortable as some at first, but some tweaking soon ensures a good fit with plenty of support. The neoprene-lined straps feel very comfortable next to your skin, and the soft microfibre footbeds are great. Great to walk in, offering plenty of support and good traction. The footbeds hold your feet still, even when ...

Peter Storm Adventure

£40.00

This lightweight multi-activity shoe from Peter Storm weighs 956g (pair, size 9). It has a waterproof-lined suede leather and mesh upper, rubber toe bumper for durability and a very stiff sole that’s ideal for rocky ground. There’s a reasonable lug pattern on the outsole, providing a good grip on mud and grass and represents superb value for money. However,  spending ...

Regatta Plateau X-LT Trail

£42.00

This multi-activity shoe from Regatta offers a broad and roomy fit, with ample padding, making them very comfortable to wear. The suede/fabric upper isn’t waterproof, which makes it cool and incredibly breathable, and the beefy toe and heel bumpers offer plenty of protection. It's quite low at the ankle, but that’s not a problem. On dry trails the Plateau performs ...

£45.00

The Peter Storm Adventure Low weighs 1040g (pair, size 11); low price; waterproof lining; rubber toe rand; very stiff toe box; stiff outsole ideal for rocky ground; aggressive outsole lug pattern. But it does not feel quite as comfortable or as well-fitting as higher-priced models.

Karrimor Colorado Low Weatherlite

£50.00

This multi-activity shoe features Weatherlite waterproof lining; tough leather upper; solid toe box; rubber bumper on toe; excellent heel support; aggressive sole unit lug pattern; good cushioning. But 1244g (pair, size 11) is heavier than some; feels a bit ‘clumpy’; waterproof lining may not be as breathable as higher-priced options.

Hi-Tec Multi-Terra Mid WP

£50.00

These multi-activity shoes from Hi-Tec have a fairly flexible midsole and padded upper that makes them feel snug straight from the box. The rolling motion of the sole unit feels a little odd at first, but works well once you get used to it. They are quite a high cut, which will suit some, but can be a little harsh ...

Karrimor Whirlwind Weathertite 2010

£50.00

At just £50 the Karrimor Whirlwind Weathertite offers an incredible set of features and a good performance to match. It is based around a conventional design of synthetic leather and mesh on the upper with a waterproof lining from Weathertite. The result should be dry feet as well as good breathability from that mesh, and good durability from the synthetic ...

Regatta Rockfold XLT

£50.00

This lightweight multi-activity shoe from Regatta weighs 1152g (pair, size 11). It has a waterproof-lined suede and mesh upper, a very supportive heel cup and stiff, protective toe. Underneath, it has good, aggressive lugs for mud and grass and comes at a superb price for what you get. However, it’s not as well-cushioned as it could be and the sole ...

Contour Track

£55.00

A clumsy looking shoe, but it’s well padded and reasonably broad, so feels very comfortable from the box. The speed-lace eyelet makes them easy to get on and off. Feels like a short boot rather than a beefed-up trainer and is reassuringly supportive on the hills. The deep tread is superb on soft ground but it loses out on weight ...

Salomon Exit Aero

£55.00

With a mainly mesh upper and no waterproof lining, this is the cheapest and one of the lightest shoes tested. It has limited midsole support, and leaks like a sieve, but it will work superbly in dry, hot climates or on well-surfaced trails; and will also do a great job for the fast and light brigade, who don’t mind getting ...

Merrell Moab Ventilator

£55.00

This multi-activity shoe features a very breathable mesh upper; rubber and suede leather reinforcement; very supportive heel; excellent cushioning; typical great Merrell comfort; aggressive lug pattern on Vibram sole. But sole flex is little squishy, so not ideal for rocky paths; toe box could be a little stiffer; mesh upper extends low down so water will get in easily.

Berghaus Gusto

£55.00

This multi-activity shoe features a suede and mesh upper which offers durability and air flow; rubber rand all the way around; stiffened toe box; supportive heel cup; sole resists pressure of stones well; aggressive sole lugs ideal for mud; close fit at toe due to lacing. But a little more toe-to-heel and lateral stiffness in the sole would be good ...

Contour Track

£55.00

These multi-activity shoes from Contour are very comfortable, with padded mesh uppers and a secure fit. The stiffness in the midsole and fairly high ankle cuff provide good support over most types of terrain, and there is adequate protection at the toe and heel. The Tracks are quite heavy, mainly because of the chunky sole and extra padding on the ...

The North Face Momentum II 2009

£55.00

The superb price and weight set the The North Face Momentum II multi-activity shoe apart from others. But it also benefits from a very functional sole unit that is well-cushioned and also reasonably grippy, which makes it ideal for off-road running. Heel support is great too, which again adds to its performance when running. The upper is mesh and very ...

Regatta Fast Track X-LT

£60.00

At first glance £60 seems like a good price for a pair of shoes for walking, and it certainly would be if you only really wanted them for casual use and really easy trails, but the Fast Track has a flimsy midsole that lacks the kind of lateral support needed for rough and rocky trails, and the tread pattern doesn’t ...

This multi-activity shoe features men’s sizes up to 14; women’s to size 10; mesh upper for maximum airflow; reasonably stiff heel cup for support; heel end of sole is nice and stiff; reasonably aggressive sole lug pattern for mud; okay for running. But forefoot and toe flex is very soft and limits comfort on rocky ground; soft toe box limits ...

Hi-Tec V-lite Radar II Event

£60.00

Lightweight, with a lovely soft fabric upper reinforced with narrow strips of synthetic tape that make it feel more like a running shoe than a boot. Great protection and support for such a lightweight shoe. The eVENT lining is both waterproof and breathable and the outsole grips well on most surfaces. Durability may be an issue with heavy use.

Salomon Exit Peak

£60.00

Really comfortable from the box. A good lacing system gives great support right across the foot and there is plenty of room for your toes. Lovely to walk in on dry ground, with a very grippy sole and flexible uppers. No waterproof lining means that wet feet are inevitable on damp ground, so best-suited to dry paths or travelling.

This multi-activity shoe features an eVent waterproof lining; external skeleton design to protect upper; stiff toe box for boot protection; supportive heel cup; well-cushioned sole; good sole stiffness for a variety of uses; aggressive Vibram lug pattern on the sole; a superb price. But the mesh that extends close to the sole means this won’t be as durable as shoes ...

This multi-activity shoe comes at a superb price for what you’re getting. The V-Lite Radar eVent is very light and yet it boasts the key features that anyone heading outdoors might find useful. Firstly it has a waterproof upper, thanks to its eVent lining. The toe box is very stiff, so it will provide good protection on rocky ground. Underfoot ...
