AKU Ultra Light GTX

£145.00

A surprisingly narrow and unforgiving fit that will only suit women with narrow feet. They’re lightweight, though, with a soft, medium-high ankle cuff. The Gore-Tex lining will keep your feet dry, and the suede and mesh uppers are very breathable. But the very lightweight sole and narrow heel don’t provide much shock absorption, which doesn’t inspire confidence on rough terrain, ...

AKU Trekker Lite GTX 2009

£148.00

The AKU Trekker Lite GTX is a relatively lightweight boot, as the name suggests. It is also relatively well-priced for what you get in these days of global economics ramping up the price of gear. The boot is lighter than the higher-priced leather options but it still benefits from a good set of practical features for hill and mountain walking. ...

AKU Zenith Leather

£135.00

A 3-season boot that features a Nubuck leather upper with minimal stitching for maximum durability; ankle, upper and toe box are all stiff and supportive; stiff Vibram sole unit with aggressive lug pattern; no Gore-Tex inside so this won’t be too sweaty. You may want a waterproof lining but as the upper is virtually stitch-free this boot won’t leak easily ...
