There is the right shoe for every activity. This also applies to the hiking shoes that I present to you in this article: speed hiking, trekking, Nordic walking, walking - each shoe is specialised.
The mountain is calling? Or at least the dirt track? With the right hiking boots, you can set off right away. We have new hiking shoes and sandals from the Columbia brand in our shop.
«Peakfreak Rush Outdry»: for hiking in adverse conditions
According to the manufacturer, the Peakfreak Rush Outdry is designed for long hikes with many metres of elevation gain. Rubber toe and heel caps protect your feet when ascending and descending the terrain. According to the manufacturer, the Outdry shoes are completely waterproof and still allow air to pass through. The shoes are glued together in such a way that no water can penetrate from the outside. At the same time, sweat can escape from the inside to the outside.
According to the manufacturer, the midsole offers «maximum cushioning» with good balance and high stability. According to the manufacturer, the sole acts like a cushion for your foot. The profile of the abrasion-resistant rubber outsole with its four millimetre deep tread is said to «offer exceptional traction and stability in all directions» - on dry and wet surfaces.
A leather framework in the midfoot area ensures that the shoe remains stable. The upper material and footbed are otherwise made from various synthetic materials.
The shoe is available from us as a men's and women's version.
«Peakfreak Roam Waterproof»: for everyday wear
This shoe is best suited for walks, dog walks and light hikes. It has a waterproof, breathable membrane.
This shoe also has a supportive leather frame. The high two-layer sole is designed to absorb shocks and ensure a comfortable fit. The outer sole is made of rubber and, according to the manufacturer, offers good grip on all surfaces, even when wet.
At the moment, we can only offer this model as a men's shoe.
Konos TRS: for running on hilly terrain
If you like to go fast when hiking in the mountains, the Konos TRS could be made for you. Like the Peakfreak Rush Outdry, it offers «maximum cushioning». The materials used are designed for low weight with good stability. In size 38, the shoe weighs 240 grams.
This shoe is not waterproof - but if you're a fast hiker, you'll probably just outrun the showers. The tread of the rubber outsole ensures a secure step.
The shoe is currently only available for women.
Sandals for men and women
According to the manufacturer, the Konos Globetrot sandal in a women's cut offers «medium cushioning». The upper foot straps are made of polyester. They can be adjusted to your foot size. These sandals are best used in urban areas, i.e. on paved surfaces.
For men, we offer the Peakfreak Roam sandal. This shoe is designed to be equally suitable for camping and for trails in the mountains. Columbia emphasises in particular that water splashes do not affect the shoes. The straps are adjustable and made from suede and synthetic leather.
The footbeds of both models are antimicrobial treated. You close the straps with a Velcro fastener.
