Men's Walking Boots

Tough, protective and supportive, the men's hiking and walking boot with a high cut tackles the most demanding terrain. Ankle support and grip for the mountains and loaded trekking: here's how to choose yours.

The boot, for demanding terrain

A men's hiking boot is defined by its high cuff, which supports the ankle and keeps you secure on rough ground, under load and in the mountains. Rugged and tough, it protects against knocks and abrasion, and holds up over long distances. It's the choice for support and protection, when a low-cut shoe doesn't give you enough on technical trails.

Comfort, relative lightness and terrain

Despite weighing more, a well-designed boot stays comfortable: good cushioning, solid heel support, and a flexible cuff exactly where you need it. Some models trim down the structure without sacrificing support. A rigid, lugged sole grips on rock, mud and steep sidehills. For easier, rolling trails, a men's low-cut shoe will do the job - compare them in the men's range.

Waterproofing and the elements

Against the elements, a waterproof membrane or treated leather keeps your feet dry in damp mountain conditions. The high cuff also shields against snow and splashes. Leather, tough and long-lasting, only gets better with wear on difficult terrain. Pair it with technical socks to prevent rubbing.

What's it for?

Ideal for the mountains, technical terrain, mud and loaded-up trekking, the men's boot is your companion for serious hikes. You'll also find women's boots and the full range of hiking footwear. From trekking to mountain trails, the right high cuff gives you the support you need: choose well, and your boots will handle every terrain without letting you down.

Frequently Asked Questions

When to choose men's hiking boots?

In the mountains, on technical and rugged terrain, in the mud, and for trekking with a loaded rucksack: its high-cut upper supports and protects the ankle. For rolling trails in dry weather, a lighter low-cut shoe does the job.

Is a hiking boot heavy?

More than just a low-top shoe, yes, but some models lighten the structure without sacrificing support. This weight is justified by the ankle's protection and support on demanding terrain and under load.

Leather or synthetic for a boot?

Leather is tough, long-lasting and protective, but heavier and slower to dry; synthetic is lighter and more breathable. For rough terrain and longevity, leather remains a safe bet.

Does the boot protect against cold and snow?

Its high shaft keeps out snow and splashes, and an insulated, waterproof version keeps your feet warm and dry. For the depths of winter, choose a model specifically designed for insulation.
