Boreal Tacul

£125.00

This 3-4 season boot has a very precise feel about it, making it appear ideal for scrambling, mountaineering and generally more precise footwork. The lacing extends right down to the toes to enhance the fit too. The upper is a mix of materials and you do get a very high rubber rand to protect the upper from scrapes. Inside the ...

Zamberlan Baffin GT

£145.00

This 3-4 season boot was only available as a men’s model last year, but now there’s a women’s version too. It’s built around a very tough 2.6mm nubuck leather and there is barely a stitch in sight. The huge rubber rand around the toe adds vital extra durability, while a Gore-Tex waterproof lining guarantees dry feet. The ankle cuff is ...

Brasher Kanaga Peak 2010

£155.00

With a swing of my leg, the edge of my boot slashed a step in the snow that was wide enough to support my weight. Another swing and another step followed. Onward and upward, step by step, I climbed into the chilly Lakeland fells. I was wearing the Brasher Kanaga GTX, a new winter boot from a brand best known ...

Scarpa New SL

£155.00

This was the benchmark 3-4 season boot for many years. The current version offers less support to the ankle. In a way this is good as this new ankle certainly allows an easier walking action. The boot is also lighter too. You get the same one-piece leather upper and very aggressive sole unit. That stiff upper is ideal for use ...

Mammut Mount Trail XT 2009

£160.00

The Mammut (formerly Raichle) Mount Trail XT has been a frequent favourite of Trail’s when provided by the manufacturer as a 3-season boot, and it was ‘Best in Test’ in May 2009. However it has now been submitted by the manufacturer for inclusion in the 3-4 season category. The boot features a solidly built leather upper that is not one ...

Hanwag Altai GTX 2008

£170.00

The Hanwag Altai GTX 3-4 season boot looks very light from afar due to the styling, but it is also lightweight on the scales. The upper is made from Cordura with suede overlays, and double stitching reinforces the seams. A wide rubber rand around the whole boot helps to protect it on rocky terrain. Underfoot there is a very aggressive ...

AKU Utah Micro GTX

£170.00

If I could only have one pair of boots in my outdoors wardrobe, they’d be crampon-compatible and stiff enough to hold an edge in the snow, yet flexible enough to allow comfortable walking below the snowline . Sadly, such products are few and far between. However, occasionally a manufacturer pulls up its socks and delivers just what I am after ...

Raichle Mt Peak XT

£170.00

A frequent Trail favourite 3-4 season boot, the Mount Peak XT now gets a full rubber rand, to make it even better for the winter walker than a year ago. The boot is based around a quality leather upper that is not one-piece, but it has minimal stitching. There is a Gore-Tex waterproof lining too. The double tongue of last ...

AKU Utah Micro 2008

£170.00

The AKU Utah Micro is quite a lightweight 3-4 season boot but it’s not light on functionality, and looks it ideal for general year round hill-walking on a mix of terrain. The upper is a simple, single-piece leather design and the unusual tongue has virtually no stitching to leak or fray. A Gore-Tex waterproof lining guarantees dry feet, and a ...

Kayland Apex Trek

£180.00

This is a new 3-4 season boot that’s bursting with credibility. I love the low weight, especially when you realise that it is not lacking performance either. The upper is a mix of fabric and leather plus a waterproof lining and a big rubber rand to prevent scrapes with rocks ruining the upper. There’s excellent stiffness in the toe and ...

Scarpa New SL 2009

£185.00

The Scarpa SL has defined the 3-4 season boot category for many years. It is a classic design that is ideal for British conditions with a one-piece leather upper that is virtually free of stitching to fail, and its 2.8mm thickness means it is very water-resistant. Treat this material regularly with proofing products and it will last a lifetime and ...

Kayland Apex Trek 2008

£190.00

If weight is your priority in a 3-4 season boot, the Kayland Apex Trek is a very good option. But it’s not lacking performance-orientated features either. The upper is a mix of fabric and leather, plus there’s a waterproof lining and a big rubber rand to make the boot ideal for scrambling and mountaineering as well as crunching over mixed ...

Kayland Apex Trek 2009

£190.00

The Kayland Apex Trek 3-4 season boot is very lightweight for its class and yet it benefits from a great package of features and is no slouch in terms of performance either. The upper is made from a combination of fabric and leather with an eVent waterproof lining. The rubber rand extends around the front of the boot for improved ...

Salomon Alp 7 GTX

This 3-4 season boot is a great introduction to winter hill-walking as it offers all the main features a winter walker needs without a huge price tag. The upper is mostly made from leather with a dash of fabric at the tongue. Good stiffness at the toe and heel provide support and protection for the foot, while a deep rubber ...
