Design details
What is OUTDOOR CONTACT© grip?
The grip of our soles is certified.
The boot must pass laboratory tests to define its friction coefficient on smooth surfaces.
To validate these tests, we assess the quality of our soles out in the field, by a panel of representative testers over 500 kms.
How do we test waterproofing?
Our boots undergo an intensive test in the lab to guarantee their waterproofing ability. They are immersed in water and folded to simulate actual hiking conditions. This test ensures that your feet will stay dry for at least two hours, even in rainy or wet conditions.
Why choose a good pair of socks?
When walking in the forest, on the coast or every day, your feet are presented with numerous constraints. If your shoes rub, this can be unpleasant, especially when you’re also sweating. And the cold can be really uncomfortable if you don’t have adequate protection.
Which socks should you choose?
A waterproof boot will always be less breathable than a non-waterproof one. That’s why Hike 500 Mid and Hike 900 Mid socks are the preferred choice to wick away perspiration and reduce chafing in this pair of boots.
How to care for your boots

- Treating stains: Brush with warm water,
