Should I go up a size?

Yes. They run small, so we recommend the next size up. This leaves room for your foot to swell during activity and for a hiking sock.

Are they suitable for wide feet?

They have a close fit: if you have wide feet, choose the next size up.

Are they really waterproof?

Yes: the ULTRASHELL® membrane is waterproof to 10,000 mm (Schmerber) and breathable. It protects against rain and wet ground but is not designed for immersion.

Do they need breaking in?

They feel a little stiff at first, but a few outings are enough to soften them up.

Stitching, assembly and finishing are carried out in Vietnam.

How should I care for these shoes?

Clean them by hand with lukewarm water and a soft brush. Do not machine-wash or tumble-dry them; leave them to air-dry away from direct heat. To restore water repellency, use NIKWAX Fabric & Leather Proof.

What are the delivery times for this product?

All orders placed by midnight are prepared the next day. In France, orders placed before 1 pm (excluding weekends) with Chronopost 24h are dispatched the same day. Delivery then depends on the carrier and takes 1 to 4 days in France. Delivery times for Europe and the rest of the world vary by destination.

Can I return the item if the size doesn't fit?

Yes, absolutely. You have 30 days to return it and get a refund or an exchange. Return shipping is free. The item must be new, unworn, unwashed, and have its original tag.

Who did we design them for?

For demanding women hikers who want a lightweight, built-to-last mid-cut boot, from fast hiking to challenging hiking on all types of terrain.

How waterproof is it?

Our ULTRASHELL® technology: a waterproof membrane rated to 10'000 mm Schmerber, with breathability of 80'000 g/m²/24h. It protects against rain and wet ground.

How much support?

The mid-cut upper supports the ankle. Adjust the lacing partway through your hike to hold your heel in place on descents and prevent rubbing.

What about grip?

Vibram® XS-TREK rubber outsole: 4-5 mm lugs for reliable traction uphill and effective braking downhill, on dry and wet ground.

All seasons, all terrain

In the mountains, conditions can change without warning. Waterlogged trails, scree and temperature shifts. When your boots weigh you down or let moisture in, you slow down and use up more energy.

This high-cut hiking boot is designed to let you move freely. Its membrane is waterproof and breathable, its RipStop upper resists abrasion, and its grip stays reliable on dry and wet ground alike. Light and responsive, it supports every stride and keeps your footing stable from start to finish.

Because on a hike, freedom of movement starts underfoot.

In summary This content is written by AI

Customers appreciate their comfort, light weight and good foot support, as well as the quality of the finish and the grip of the soles. Many point out that they run small and recommend taking one or even two sizes up, depending on foot shape. The second pair of insoles is often appreciated. A word of advice: allow some time to break them in, as several customers reported rubbing around the ankle or blisters on the heel, sometimes after just a few kilometres. They are suited to hikes on different types of terrain.

High-quality product. I needed to order one size larger than my usual size and one size larger for hiking. The product matches the description. I recommend it. The after-sales service is excellent, friendly, and responsive. A very good experience.

I'm very pleasantly surprised by the comfort of these hiking shoes. I do Nordic walking and trekking, and I find them very efficient, comfortable for my feet, and for the price, I think they're very affordable. They suit me perfectly, and we'll see how long they last.
