Zamberlan 540w Rise GT (2012)

£150.00

A tough and sturdy boot and as a consequence, heavy. It doesn’t feel cumbersome, though, thanks to a great fit – with a narrow heel and wide forefoot – and a nice rolling action that seems to spur you forward. They’re well padded, which makes them feel very comfortable and supportive, but quite warm, too. An excellent lacing system spreads ...

Zamberlan Monster GTX (2012)

£200.00

In the UK Zamberlan is best known for its tried and trusted range of fellwalking boots. Quality and comfort have been the company’s hallmark, so it was interesting to get hold of its first pair of scrambling boots over here to see how they shaped up. The minute you get the Zamberlan Monster GTXs out of the box it is ...

Zamberlan Vajolet 2012

£240.00

The Zamberlan Vajolet is a very ‘European’ style of boot, but it also benefits from a great range of well-designed features. Firstly it is relatively lightweight, thanks in part to the fabric upper. The mix of materials on the upper are protected by a rubber rand that encloses the front half of the boot. Inside is a Gore-Tex waterproof lining ...

Zamberlan Baltoro 2011

£170.00

A winner of past Trail ‘Best Value’ accolades, the Zamberlan Baltoro remains an excellent choice for hillwalking throughout the year. The instant appeal is that slightly lower price tag than some of the opposition, and you are still getting a very good package of features. So there is a good-quality leather upper that offers stiff protection for the foot, as ...

Zamberlan Ultra Lite GT

£150.00

These have a look of quality about them. Or maybe it’s the opulent looking brass-coloured lace loops. Actually the leather used is thick and of a good quality and there is a quality rand surrounding the whole shoe that protects the expensive leather from scrapes. The boot uses quite a snug-fitting last, so this is more likely to be suited ...

Zamberlan 159 Quantum GT Plus

£120.00

Very generous sizing and an exceptionally broad toe make these a great bet for women with wide feet. The combination of nubuck and mesh uppers offer a great compromise of breathability and support. They’re very flexible at the toe, making them pleasant to walk in, but they don’t provide much of a platform to push off from, leaving them less-suited ...

Zamberlan Steep GT 2011

£170.00

The Zamberlan Steep GT features a leather upper; Gore-Tex waterproof lining; stiff toe box for foot protection; good sole unit lug pattern for grip in mud; reasonable stiffness for general hill-walking; double stitching on upper for increased durability. But 1904g (pair, size 11) is relatively heavy for a boot that is not as stiff as some lighter boots.

Zamberlan Tofane GT 2011

£280.00

Norwegian welt stitched boot construction was commonplace until the 1980s. Such boots were heavy and required breaking in, but they would last a lifetime. Since then lighter boots with bonded construction have taken over. So why is Zamberlan now reintroducing welt stitched construction on the new Tofane GT?According to Zamberlan the Tofane’s Norwegian welted construction ensures retention of the boot ...

Zamberlan Torre GTX 2010

£290.00

The Torre GTX is designed specifically for Alpine use and it is only available through Zamberlan’s Alpine specialist stores. As you’d expect from a boot dedicated to Alpine use you get slightly lighter upper construction to keep weight to a minimum. There’s good reinforcement though with a solid toe box and a full rubber rand. The ankle cuff is a ...

Zamberlan Baltoro 2010

£160.00

Zamberlan has always made top-quality boots, and the Baltoro has been designed for the British hill-walker who is heading to the Scottish hills and other 3,000ft peaks in the Lakes and Snowdonia. You get a one-piece leather upper, so there is no stitching to fray on the rock and that also means there is very little chance of leakage. A ...

Zamberlan Vioz Lite GT

£145.00

A mid-cuffed, low-sitting boot, with reasonable amounts of flex in the toe make the Vioz Lite a boot that’s ideal for low to mid-level walks, and a good one at that. Excellent amounts of shock absorption under the heel really help to make them feel lively on the trail. Grip is good over most terrain with well-spaced lugs in the ...

Zamberlan Kid GT 2010

£55.00

The Zamberlan Kid GT is a proper boot, designed for the hills. The upper is very supportive with a good solid toe box and some good stiffness in the upper too to protect the foot. There’s a Vibram sole unit with reasonable stiffness for rockier terrain too. This boot offers most of what many children heading to the hills will ...

Zamberlan Vioz Plus GT 2010

£195.00

The Zamberlan Vioz Plus GT has a full-grain leather upper with minimal stitching; Gore-Tex waterproof lining; full rubber rand; incredibly stiff, supportive upper; stiff outsole; aggressive Vibram sole unit; incredibly durable boot for the toughest terrain. But it weighs 2030g (pair, size 11); may offer more performance than walkers will need; pricy if you don’t need this performance.

£145.00

The Zamberlan Rise GT weighs 1388g (pair, size 42); Gore-Tex waterproof lining; good stiff toe box and heel support; Vibram outsole with good lugs for grip; good upper stiffness generally for hill and mountain walking.

Zamberlan Storm

£100.00

A lovely boot with a tough yet attractive leather and Cordura upper and a really solid toebox and heel counter. The lacing works well and the tall ankle cuff, combined with a fairly stiff midsole, makes it very stable on rough and uneven ground – it’s definitely at its best in the hills and mountains. The sole unit provides good ...

Zamberlan Expert Plus GT 2009

£190.00

The Zamberlan Expert Plus GT is a new 4-season boot for 2009, but it follows traditional design lines, being made from thick one-piece leather. The upper is almost stitch-free so this boot won’t leak easily, but there is a waterproof lining too in case you forget to treat the leather properly. There is a double tongue inside so that a ...

Zamberlan Mountain Lite HBS 2009

The Zamberlan Mountain Lite HBS is a very traditional 3-4 season boot that incorporates the classic features that many more mature walkers will have tried, tested and decided are ideal for British hill-walking. It has a one-piece leather upper, which means it is likely to last a long time as there is nothing to fall apart. To make the boot ...

Zamberlan Steep GT

£155.00

A very narrow boot, and it definitely needs careful trying on before buying, but it absolutely oozes quality. It’s a little less stiff than some, but still plenty supportive enough for rougher ground; and as you’d expect, the Gore-Tex liner kept water out no matter what. Overall, it’s a superb boot but the red nubuck upper is likely to appeal ...

Zamberlan Venture GT

£90.00

One of the heavier shoes on test, but still a fair bit down on a good boot, and it didn’t feel at all clumsy, so loses no marks. It is very stable and offers plenty of support, both in the upper, which is a split-leather/Cordura blend, and in the midsole, which seems to flex perfectly both front to back and ...

Zamberlan Rise GT MNS

A heavy boot, but it doesn’t actually feel heavy on, due to an excellent fit, with a narrow heel that almost grips the foot and a sweet rolling action that seems to propel the foot forward. It’s reasonably well-padded and the lacing’s excellent, making it easy to get a really stable fit. The thick split-leather/Cordura upper offers support and bags ...

These days sandals are morphing into enclosed multi-activity shoes, so that your feet can benefit from the ventilation of a sandal as well as the protection offered by an enclosed shoe. The Zamberlan Cliff has an upper of leather and synthetic materials that combine in an enclosed toe box. Adjustment comes from the elasticated laces on the top. It also ...

Typically of Zamberlan the Koala GT is a very robust children’s boot that is built to tackle tougher terrain than most.

Zamberlan Crest XCR/Venture 2009

£90.00

The Zamberlan Crest XCR/Venture multi-activity shoe won ‘Best in Test’ in 2008 and 2007, and for my money it is still up there. Typically of Zamberlan the Crest is a functional shoe for those who demand performance in the mountains and so it is built to take plenty of abuse. You get a Gore-Tex XCR waterproof lining to guarantee dry ...
