Women's Walking Boots

Support, protection and comfort on demanding terrain: the women's hiking and walking boot with a high cuff secures the ankle in the mountains and on long distances, with a fit designed just for you. Here's how to choose the right one.

A boot designed for women

The women's hiking boot features the high cuff that supports the ankle, with a fit adapted to a foot shape that's often narrower. On rough terrain, in the mountains and under load, this support keeps you secure and reduces the risk of a sprained ankle. It's the boot for long distances and demanding trails for female hikers.

Support, sole and terrain

Ankle support stabilises you on sidelong slopes and scree, while a rigid sole with deep lugs grips on rock, mud and unstable ground. Toe protection guards against knocks. For lighter use, a women's low hiking shoe will do the job; worth comparing against the other women's hiking shoes.

Comfortable and waterproof: breaking in your boots before the big trek

Comfort comes down to cushioning, heel support and getting the right size. The boot needs a breaking-in period: wear it on short outings before a long trek. A waterproof version keeps your feet dry in damp mountain conditions. Technical socks reduce rubbing and blisters.

What's it for?

Ideal for the mountains, rough terrain and loaded trekking, the women's boot is heavier than a low shoe — a trade-off worth making for the support it gives. You'll also find the men's boots and the full range of footwear. Leather adds durability and security on demanding routes, and a membrane keeps your feet dry against the elements: an essential for walking with peace of mind in the mountains.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should you wear women's hiking boots?

In the mountains, on rough terrain, in the mud and for trekking with a load: a high cut supports the ankle and protects it. For easy trails in dry weather, a lighter low-cut shoe is the better choice.

Are women's boots different from men's boots?

Yes: the fit is tailored to a typically narrower foot shape, with sleeker support. The principles (high cuff, grippy sole, protection) remain the same; what matters is how it fits your foot.

How to choose the right size for your hiking boots?

Go for a true-to-size fit with a bit of room at the front for descents, and try them on at the end of the day wearing your hiking socks. Good heel support with freedom for your toes helps prevent blisters and aches out on the trail.

Do you need special socks with boots?

Technical hiking socks are recommended: they wick away moisture, reduce friction and prevent blisters, especially while breaking in a new high-cut boot.
