TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Are they warm enough for winter?
The combination of the insulating insole and padded upper provide effective comfort in the cold.
First tested in the laboratory and then in the field with a variety of users, the comfort temperature of our boots varies from -8°C when static to -17°C on the move
Do they provide protection whatever the conditions?
Protecting you from the cold, snow and rain, our boots include a thin waterproof membrane that keeps your feet dry while allowing them to breathe. In addition, its midsole insulates from the cold of the contact with the snow, so you can walk in complete confidence
What is thermal comfort?
The thermal comfort of your boot keeps your feet warm while maintaining air circulation to prevent build up of moisture. Designed for regular use, their waterproof membrane wicks away moisture while preventing water from getting in
Are they 100% waterproof?
We made sure that your shoes are waterproof thanks to tests carried out in the lab, simulating half immersed feet in water, use and ageing on the pitch
Traction or grip? The differences
For traction, imagine the studs of shoes like claws that grip the floor when climbing.
For grip, grooves under the soles act like the tyres of a car, keeping you stable on slippery ground! With them on, you'll make light work of the winter terrain
What does the Snow Contact technology provide?
The combination of non-slip components and the specific design of the studs ensure good grip and traction on snow. The studs are positioned and precisely designed to grip the snow and evacuate water. However, for use on ice, add non-slip grips
What resistance do they provide over time?
Our engineers carry out analysis to check that our products hold the road! They test all the following: resistance of the straps with checks of the gluing, UV resistance, abrasion and ageing. Nothing escapes their attention to ensure your complete satisfaction
What should you wear for a snow hike?
Here are our tips for braving the winter:
- Wool socks for maximum warmth,
-Breathable socks adapted to every adventure to keep your feet dry,
-Choose a pair suited to the height of the upper (mid-height or high)
How to preserve the waterproofing?
Imagine your waterproof boots like a shield against water. Its water repellent properties make it waterproof, breathable and lightweight. However, this power needs to be refreshed to remain effective. All you need to do to refresh the material and keep it ready for bad weather is to give it a quick spray
How to dry the inside of your boot.
To effectively dry the inside of your damp boots, remove the insole, use newspaper to absorb moisture and change it regularly. Avoid direct heat sources which might damage the material and dry them in a warm, dry and ventilated place

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
Our Decathlon Sportslab laboratory, based in Lille, also contributes to the innovation and development of our Quechua products. It brings together 4 themes, each with their own area and technological tools: Body shape (in particular from 3D analysis) Movement science Thermal comfort (with its four climatic chambers) Behavioural and sensory sciences In particular, we test the holding of seams, gluing, toxicology, resistance to UV and abrasion.
Warranty
2 Years
Agree by
To meet your requirements, Quechua products are tested in the mountains in conditions you will encounter during your hikes. Our field test engineer, our product manager, as well as a panel of testers test the products throughout their development until they are marketed.
