TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
OUTDOORCONTACT© Grip
The grip of our soles is certified.
To get this certification, the boots must pass laboratory tests to assess the grip coefficient on different surfaces (smooth, rugged, dry, wet).
To validate these tests, we have the quality of our soles assessed in the field, on hikes, by a panel of testers covering 500 km.
The soles of these boots have a grip rating of 4/5 and are OUTDOORCONTACT©-certified.
Designed for hiking use
Our hiking boots are designed for use on hiking 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). Intensive use on roads (tarmac) can lead to the premature wear of your boots and cause discomfort. Not suitable for hiking in the mountains.
Tested for optimal durability
Laboratory 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.
Comfort
Our country walking boots promise one thing and that’s heightened comfort for the wearer; to this end, we have included different ingredients in this boot to take care of your feet such as the EVA foam midsole (flexible thermoplastic).
We have also made the insole removable for greater hygiene (washing possible).
