Karrimor KSB Peak II Event

£80.00

Broad at the toe, yet narrow at the heel, the KSBs have a fairly distinctive fit. They’re reasonably well padded, feeling good from the word go, yet not too hot in milder conditions. The boots have a moderately stiff midsole, well-suited to all-round walking, and they’re reasonably light, so won’t feel clumsy on easier paths. An eVENT membrane provides the ...

Raichle Sierra GTX

£90.00

These fabric boots from Raichle are really comfortable from the off, with a medium-high ankle cuff and plenty of padding where it’s needed. Slightly wider than some, they allow you to really crank up the laces for a super-stable fit, with no heel-rubbing on the climbs and no toe-banging on the descents. Plenty of toe and heel protection too. They ...

Scarpa Ranger GTX

£110.00

These three-season boots from Scarpa are very comfortable right from the word go. They fit well, with a good amount of room in the toe, a comfortable heel and a soft, supportive ankle cuff. The streamlined, classic design is a pleasure and the luxurious leather upper is instantly eye-catching. The Rangers perform exceptionally well over all types of terrain, especially ...

The North Face Dhaulagiri GTX 2009

£115.00

The North Face Dhaulagiri GTX weighs 1548g (pair, size 11); suede leather upper; Gore-Tex waterproof lining; good cushioning underfoot; Vibram sole unit; good boot for easier terrain. But minimal stiffness in sole and toe box so not as impressive as hyped-up appearance suggests; pricy; sole lugs not as aggressive as some others.

Scarpa ZG40

£120.00

These three-season leather boots from Scarpa, although slightly narrow, are well padded and lightweight and reasonably comfortable from the box. The laces pass through leather eyelets, which grip well and therefore help maintain the correct tension across the foot throughout your journey. The narrow fit might stop you tightening them quite as much as you’d like, but they still hold ...

Scarpa Infinity

£120.00

Well-placed padding make these feel superb when you first pull them on, but they’re quite narrow and difficult to lace tightly, resulting in painful toe banging on descent. A good medium-stiff midsole and nice high cuff should have made them very stable, but the fabric panel directly above the ankle bone is a little too soft and doesn’t offer the ...

Brasher Trailmaster GTX

£120.00

The 3-season Trailmaster builds on the success and performance of the Brasher Hillmaster, the UK’s most popular walking boot, by being a little more aggressive in its design. The upper is thick nubuck leather with minimal stitching to ensure it is water-resistant as well as durable. A Gore-Tex lining makes the boot waterproof. This upper is a little stiffer than ...

Salomon Quest 4D GTX 2009

£130.00

Take a good look at the new Salomon Quest 4D GTX 3-season boot and you’ll recognise the outsole, which is a development of Salomon’s trail running outsole. It gives this boot an excellent ride that takes the wearer close to the ground with a good level of cushioning and stiffness to protect from the pounding. There is a good depth ...

Asolo Flame 2009

£130.00

The Asolo Flame has been around for a while, and it is a popular boot. It is reasonably lightweight, while its stylish fabric upper is certainly more interesting than a brown leather boot. There is a Gore-Tex lining to guarantee dry feet. The reasonably supportive upper appears well-made and able to take a fair bit of abuse. The toe box ...

Scarpa Nepal

£135.00

This 3-season boot came first in Trail April 2006 and for my money it is still the best option for the sort of tough mountain walking that most Trail readers like to do. As with all the best boots, the upper is a virtually stitch-free nubuck leather design, to ensure maximum durability after years of abuse on Britain’s highest peaks. ...

Meindl Burma Pro MFS

£140.00

The Burma is a modern classic 3-season boot that regularly does well in Trail tests. The boot is based on a top quality nubuck leather upper that is free of too much stitching to enhance durability and water resistance, while stiffness in the toe, heel and upper help support the foot on rough rocky ground. You get a Gore-Tex waterproof ...

Scarpa Trek 2009

£150.00

This is the classic Scarpa Trek with a modern twist of style and function. Firstly you get a classic quality leather upper with minimal stitching so there is little chance of leakage. Inside there is a sumptuous leather lining that gives the boot a wonderful feel on the fit, straight from the box. The upper is nice and stiff, so ...

Meindl Burma Pro MFS 2009

£175.00

The Meindl Burma Pro MFS is a modern classic that changed the marketplace when it arrived on the scene many years ago. It has been a frequent winner of 3-season boot tests in Trail. Its success has been due to a mix of features that are all dedicated to performance on the hill. So you get a good leather upper, ...
