Walk in the forest, on the plains, or in the undergrowth, in all types of biotopes for hours without discomfort
Woodcock hunters know what it is like: walking long hours, sometimes all day, and often over a good number of miles to successfully catch a bird in the right spot can be pretty intense. With these boots, developed with the help of teams from a chemical laboratory specialising in rubber, you can penetrate bands of thick vegetation and walk across steep and slippery ground without any problem.
These boots with their insulating neoprene lining are designed to keep your feet warm and reduce moisture
Because we're always thinking of the comfort of hunters, our engineers have created the 900 warm boot. The goal? Insulate your feet from the cold while reducing the feeling of moistness in wintry weather conditions with a 4 mm neoprene lining.
A flexible boot that is pleasant to wear and supports your ankle. Excellent, right?
All keen hunters share a common need: a good pair of boots that can withstand vegetation. Proper support for the foot and ankle is also essential when moving through valleys, patches of saplings, or dense forests of tall trees. In view of this, these boots mould perfectly to the shape of your foot for more stability: our engineers have developed a specific form to allow you to be comfortable on all terrains.
In concrete terms, how does this new shape ensure a better support for your foot in the boot?
After listening to feedback and collecting the opinions of our users, our engineers made the choice to "scrape" the area under the ankle so that the heel remains in place. The perimeter of the instep was reduced to ensure better ankle restraint. Overall, these two actions ensure your foot is fully supported. This is essential when you crouch down, when you kneel, and if you cross small streams, for example.
Feet feel like you are wearing slippers: Put on these boots, such a feeling of comfort
When hunting woodcock, it is not rare to walk 5, 10, 15 or 20 kilometres if you are out all day. It is therefore essential that your feet do not get sore. This is why our new insole is more malleable, absorbent, and elastic, while the walk is more flexible and lighter.
A heel cushioning similar to that found on running and trail running shoes
Indispensable for all hunters, the 900 warm boot, presented here, has a removable insole, for cleanliness, in polyurethane. Simply put, it absorbs shock when walking. Your foot feels fewer impacts and suffers less fatigue: The force of impact with the ground is absorbed. Specifically, you can walk a long time without discomfort, while having a nice feeling of lightness.
More about this removable insole
Our designers wanted this insole to be removable for a specific goal, relevant for hunters: To be able to quickly and easily dry them if hunting sessions come in quick succession, so you can always start a hunt with dry feet. We know that it’s not rare for a hunter to set off in the early morning and in the afternoon as well... Clever thinking. We’ve done it.
Do not hesitate to venture out over difficult terrain: the 900 warm boots guarantee a superior grip quality
To increase your chances of shooting a woodcock, you sometimes need to venture onto muddy ground or make your way on wet trails. Are you afraid of slipping? No worries, this pair of boots offers exceptional grip. How? Thanks to the outsole and the 5 mm deep treads. This provides enhanced grip on slippery ground and helps to remove mud while walking.
To make sure your boots last and stay flexible, follow our maintenance advice
We know you can't wait to try out our boots. To keep them in good condition, clean after each use with water and/or Ph neutral soap (avoid using hard brushes or abrasive sponges). Then wipe them with a cloth or leave them to dry in a well-ventilated place away from heat sources. Store them straight and unfolded to prevent the natural rubber from breaking down and cracking at the folds.
How to properly protect these waterproof boots, for hunting in all environments?
To protect your rubber boots all year round, we recommend using a silicone-based spray on the upper (boot restorer spray available on the website) a few times a year. The silicone creates a protective layer between the outside and the rubber, making it is possible to extend the lifespan of the product. Store boots upright, away from humidity, preferably in a dry, well-ventilated place.
