Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a hiking boot warm?
This is a boot with thermal insulation (lining or wadding) that keeps your foot warm in cold conditions, unlike a three-season model. Combined with a waterproof membrane, it keeps your foot warm and dry on snow and ice.
Do you need a waterproof boot for snow?
Yes, it's essential: snow melts on contact with your foot, and a wet foot cools down very quickly. A waterproof, breathable membrane keeps water out whilst letting perspiration escape, keeping your feet dry and warm all day long.
Can you fit crampons to these boots?
Most rigid-shafted winter walking boots are compatible with lightweight or semi-automatic crampons, as well as snowshoes. Check compatibility based on sole stiffness for icy or steep terrain.
How to keep your feet warm on winter hikes?
Pair an insulated, waterproof boot with warm technical socks, without lacing them too tightly so blood can keep circulating. Keep your feet dry, change your socks if needed, and wiggle your toes regularly to maintain warmth.
