Salomon Quest 4D GTX (2012)

£150.00

The Quest 4D is a great-looking boot, with split-suede and mesh uppers and decent rubber bumpers at the toe and heel to keep them looking fresh. The narrow heel and comparatively wide forefoot gives them an incredibly secure feel, and this, coupled with an excellent lacing system and two offset locking eyelets, means your feet stay comfortably in place, even ...

Meindl Softline Ultra GTX (2012)

£150.00

These have the feel of a serious boot, with a stiff chassis underfoot that provides stability and support, particularly over rougher ground. This becomes useful on longer walks too, because feet don’t tire as quickly as with softer-flexing boots. There is a decent enough ‘rocker’ in the sole that provides a pleasant walking action on harder ground. Although made from ...

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 ...

La Sportiva Trango S Evo GTX (2012)

£235.00

La Sportiva Trango S Evo GTXs are at the top end of the scrambling boot range both in terms of capabilities and cost. In truth they are very lightweight mountaineering boots, but despite this they fully deserve their place in this review. This is because scrambling is such a diverse branch of mountain sport, and at the higher grades it ...

AKU SL Trek GTX (2012)

£200.00

AKU has come up with some great scrambling boots in its time (the Croda being a particular favourite of mine), and this tradition has clearly continued with the recently developed SL Trek GTX.

La Sportiva Trango Alp GTX 2012

£240.00

The clue is in the name, as the La Sportiva Trango Alp GTX is very much an Alpine-orientated boot. It has a neater and narrower profile than some other options we looked at, which makes it feel slightly better for climbing and mountaineering on a mix of snow, ice and rock. The boot is slightly lighter than others, which again ...

Mammut Monolith 2012

£220.00

The slightly lower price of the Mammut Monolith compared to many other boots makes it instantly attractive. The boot sports modern styling, thanks to the mix of materials on the upper.

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 ...

Boreal Triglav 2012

The Triglav is the fabric version of Boreal’s all-leather Nelion, which costs £220. The fabric Triglav is a little lighter than the Nelion as well as being lower in price.

Scarpa Manta (2012)

£240.00

The Scarpa Manta has been the benchmark 4-season boot for longer than I can remember, which has made it the first choice for many hill and mountain walkers to consider when purchasing a dedicated boot for use on snow. The current version, which remains unchanged since 2009, boasts a stitch-free leather upper with a rubber rand, making it extremely durable. ...

Asolo Sherpa GV 2012

£200.00

The Asolo Sherpa GV is an exceptionally well-priced boot, because not only does it cost a full £40 less than the best boot we tested, but it also has a much better set of features than other boots in its price range. So you get a one-piece leather upper for maximum durability and water resistance. But just to make sure ...

Scarpa SL Activ 2011

£220.00

The SL Activ is the latest version of the multi-award-winning and quintessential 3-4 season boot, the Scarpa SL. This new version holds true to the heritage of this boot by having a good stiff sole with an aggressive lug pattern, so you can kick the edges into the snow or crunch through scree with stability and comfort.

La Sportiva Trango S Evo GTX 2011

£225.00

The La Sportiva Trango S Evo GTX is the lightest 3-4 season boot we looked at, at just 1724g (size 46 pair), and yet it has the performance to compete alongside the heavier boots even on the toughest terrain. The lightweight upper is made from synthetic materials, but you also get a full rubber rand to add extra durability. The ...

Mammut Appalachian GTX 2011

£185.00

The Mammut Appalachian GTX weighs in a little lighter than some other comparable boots we looked at, and it also gets a Gore-Tex waterproof lining, which makes the price very impressive compared to alternative options. You don’t get a full leather upper; however the textile is only around the tongue so it should not detract too much from the performance. ...

Alt-Berg Mallerstang 2011

£180.00

If there is one manufacturer that is able to make boots fit everyone then it has to be Alt-Berg. Thanks to their five width fittings it should be easier to get an Alt-Berg boot to fit than any other brand I know. The Mallerstang is only available in a men’s version, however, so half the population will have to miss ...

These are a well-styled boot, perfect for walking in most terrain. The stiff sole unit and thick leather build give them great support and foot protection. The high ankle also helps with support on loose ground, while also providing just enough cushioning without becoming too bulky or warm. Comfort is also helped by laces which reach far down the boot, ...

Meindl Air Revolution Lite

£169.00

These Meindl boots fall into the stiffer, more robust category of fabric footwear, attempting to be a viable three-season boot. They have a really stiff sole and they did feel heavy on the foot – a sense exacerbated by their stiffness. The tread pattern has very deep lugs that really improve grip in grimy fields and on hillsides. There is ...

Scarpa Trek GTX

A classic walking boot, the Trek is suitable for use on hills and mountains with quite a stiff midsole and all over support.
