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. The upper has a waterproof lining to keep feet dry, plus panels of suede to increase durability. Underfoot the lugs are widely spaced to prevent clogging. But there is very little stiffness in the Peter Storm Coleburn’s sole or ...

£110.00

The Anatom V3 weighs 1524g (pair, size 11); suede leather and synthetic upper; Tri.aria waterproof lining; Vibram sole unit with good, deep lugs for grip and wide spacing to prevent clogging. But sole unit is surprisingly bendy, limiting performance on rockier ground; boots with less stitching may be more durable; lambswool footbed is not as comfy as standard footbeds; toe ...

Rohan Lapka Tech 2011

£125.00

The Rohan Lapka Tech weighs 1416g (pair, size 11); synthetic and suede upper; Barricade waterproof lining; very aggressive Vibram outsole lug pattern for mud; good sole stiffness for rocky ground; solid toe box for protection. But boots with less mesh and stitching will be more durable; this is the Brasher Lithium rebranded, so it may suffer from the same durability ...

£40.00

The Timberland Trailscape is a low-cut shoe has a breathable mesh upper, making it ideal for walking in warm weather far from any puddles. There is protection around the shoe with suede. The lacing is easy for children thanks to a quick-release drawcord design.  But as this is a low-cut shoe it does not offer the ankle protection of a ...

The North Face Prophecy 2010

£35.00

The The North Face Prophecy is a low-cut shoe with very open mesh, which affords excellent breathability. The outsole has a good lug pattern too to provide great grip in the mud. As it is very light it is great for running around in, and it looks pretty good too. Great for use in dry locations. But the ankle cuff ...

Merrell Siren Ventilator Waterproof MID

£80.00

An incredibly soft, lightweight and comfortable boot that is really a mid-height multi-activity shoe. They flex easily and breathe exceptionally well, making them a good choice for casual summer walking. They’ll keep out water, too. A good lacing system ensures a snug enough fit, and the moulded heels help keep feet comfortably in place. The very low ankles don’t provide ...

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, ...

Grisport Ascent

£57.50

The Ascents are soft and comfortable unisex boots that will especially suit walkers with wide feet. They’re best-suited to low-level terrain, as the soft uppers and flexible midsole don’t provide much support. However, they have a a chunky sole that grips well, especially on rock, and the heel and toe are reinforced to protect from knocks. They’re very lightweight, and ...

Hi-Tec Lite Fast Hike II MID WP

£60.00

A bit of a hybrid between a multi-activity shoe and a full-on walking boot, but much closer to the boot end of the spectrum than it is the shoe, with a semi-stiff midsole and some good protection for the toe. The fit’s quite roomy, and with only two speed-lacing eyelets each side of the cuff, it’s not so easy to ...

Regatta Rockfold Mid X-LT

£60.00

The Rockfold is really a high shoe rather than a full-on boot and very much aimed at the more casual walker, with minimal midsole support and a shallow tread pattern that will only really perform on good surfaces. In its favour, it’s superbly comfortable, thanks to a broad, boxy fit and a substantial amount of padding, and the waterproof lining ...

Keen Targhee

£35.00

The Keen Targhee is a low-cut children’s shoe with a very breathable upper, making this ideal for summer walks. The rubber toe bumper is ideal for extra protection and the heel cup offers good support. Better still the wide forefoot is ideal for broader feet. But as this is a low-cut shoe rather than a boot it more easily allows ...

£85.00

The Merrell Chameleon Arc Mid weighs 952g (pair, size 5); waterproof lining; rubber toe bumper; Vibram outsole with reasonable stiffness. But it’s a mid-cut boot so not as protective as those with higher ankle cuff; outsole lugs not as good as some others for grip as no heel breast; upper not as durable as those with less stitching; upper not ...

Berghaus Torc ST 2009

£120.00

The Berghaus Torc ST weighs1728g (pair, size 11); Gore-Tex waterproof lining; rubber rand around much of the upper for maximum durability; extremely aggressive outsole lug pattern; stiff upper and sole for rough terrain. But rubber on upper bunches uncomfortably at flex point; all that rubber is likely to make this boot hot and sweaty.
