abrasion resistanceSeamless front stone guard to resist abrasion in the wild- Grippy soles on natural footpathsThe sole’s design is the result of long research carried out in our labs. It is composed of a specific rubber formula which optimises grip and traction. Since not all needs are the same, we are always looking for the best solution to develop on loose, country trails such as unpaved forest paths.
- Designed for use on country trailsOur walking shoes are designed for use on off-road trails. Indeed, we choose the components of the sole and upper of our boots and test them to ensure that they are ideally suited to walking on loose trails (e.g. unpaved forest paths) or rocky trails (e.g. rocky coastal paths). Road use (tarmac) may lead to premature wear on your boots and cause discomfort. They are not suitable for mountain walking.
- Tested for optimal durabilityLaboratory tests were also conducted to test the following elements: tearing eyelets and straps, gluing, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion resistance of outsole and upper components, accelerated ageing. These tests allow us to improve the quality of our products and prevent premature wear of our hiking shoes.
- How to maintain your leather shoes?After your hikes, we advise you to: - Leave your shoes to dry near a heat source - Brusquely brush, using a hard-bristled brush, the dry leather to remove any mud and dirt - Use a soft-bristled brush or nubuck eraser to remove any stains - If the stains are stubborn, clean them using a brush and a little warm water - Leave to dry - Brush again using a hard-bristled brush - Spray with a waterproofing product: this will make the leather shine and bring out the colours
- How to choose the size of my walking boots?Try on both shoes, standing up, with the socks worn for hiking. Try on several models or sizes if necessary. Check two comfort points: - the heel seating - the front of the foot on a downward slope Avoid any pressure points when fitting. Feel free to walk to test the comfort. Gradually start using you shoes during your first few hiking trips to break them in.
- How to choose the right combination and size of your hiking socks?There are numerous causes of blisters when hiking: rubbing, a crease in the sock, moisture, a wrong shoe size. Therefore, it's important to choose the right shoe size and sock material suited to your shoes. You need to choose a sock size that’s adapted to your foot to avoid any additional folding of the material:these folds may form because the sock is too big and therefore there is too much material around your foot, or because the sock is so small and is pulled towards the inside of your foot.
- What material and pair of socks goes well with the NH500 shoe?You need to manage moisture as best you can when walking: you will sweat, it is often inevitable. The NH500 shoe is breathable, it will wick away moisture from your perspiration. It is therefore necessary to choose a light and breathable sock as well. You should go for the Hike 100 low or mid socks. they contain moisture-absorbing cotton and have a reverse terry-knit structure that wicks moisture away from your foot. They are high enough to protect your ankle from the shoe
