Brasher Tora GTX 2011

£60.00

The Brasher Tora GTX is a new boot that appears to be a good development of the Chichon, which has won this test in recent years. The outsole is very aggressive with good stiffness, making it ideal for rougher terrain. The upper has a Gore-Tex lining to keep out the wet plus a very good stiff toe box and a ...

Regatta Guideway Mid 2011

£40.00

The Regatta Guideway Mid is a very good low-priced boot with a mid-cut ankle cuff and a waterproof lining that is good for general outdoor use. The upper has plenty of leather to protect the mesh for greater durability. There is decent stiffness in the ankle area and sole too. The lugs are reasonably aggressive for grip in mud. But ...

Meindl Magic Junior Mid 2011

£45.00

The Meindl Magic Junior Mid is a well-proven boot costing £5 more this year, but it retains all its great features. There is good stiffness in the sole and upper to protect the growing younger foot. A rubber rand at the toe should increase the durability of the stiffened toe box. Underfoot there is a reasonably grippy lug pattern for ...

Peter Storm Coleburn 2011

£30.00

The Peter Storm Coleburn is a very low-priced boot with a low ankle cuff to provide comfort straight from the box.

Berghaus Raid Junior 2011

£50.00

The Berghaus Raid Junior is a well-established boot that remains unchanged again this year in terms of design and price. The fabric and suede upper hides a waterproof ling. The upper feels quite durable too and seems able to offer good protection for a young, growing foot, while the outsole is Vibram branded. But the Vibram sole has shallow lugs, ...

Merrell Chameleon Strap Mid 2011

£50.00

The Merrell Chameleon Strap Mid’s ankle cuff is lower than conventional boots but very stiff, so although only mid height it is very supportive. An unusual Velcro fastening coupled with elastic lacing helps kids put these on. The style is very modern too. The lugs have reasonable depth for grip and the toe box is fairly stiff to protect the ...

£48.00

The Columbia Youth Switchback Mid 2 Omni-Tech’s low-cut ankle cuff ensures comfort from the box while an Omni-Tech waterproof lining keeps the feet dry. There is good protection at the toe as well. Underfoot there is a reasonable pattern of lugs for grip and some reasonable stiffness for taking the stress out of uneven terrain. But there is no heel ...

Keen Skyline Mid 2011

£60.00

The Keen Skyline Mid is a mid-cut boot with a lower ankle cuff than others in the test. What is striking about it though is the stiffness in the sole and toe box, which means it offers far better protection on rockier ground than others. The forefoot is also wide so it may suit some kids’ feet better than narrower ...

Boreal Aspen 2011

£40.00

The Boreal Aspen is a brightly coloured boot with a good ankle cuff height for general walking plus a waterproof lining to keep feet dry. The outsole has a good, deep pattern of lugs for grip and long-term wear. Importantly the toe box is very firm for maximum protection, and it gets a rubber rand too for durability. But other ...
