At 1300 grams, the heaviest pair tested this time comes from Garmont. Like its competitors from Aku and Mammut, it should be worn in, as it softens after a few hours, although it remains a robust companion. It is overqualified for low mountain ranges, but just right for alpine trails...

Product details
The upper material is made of high-quality smooth and suede leather with textile inserts, making it very durable. The textile lining and Ortholite insole provide high wearing comfort, and the insole can be replaced with your own if needed. The Heel Lock System secures the foot firmly in the shoe, reducing friction at the heel and thus minimizing blister formation. Thanks to the practical lacing that extends to the toe area, individual adjustment and even distribution are possible to ensure an optimal fit. Additionally, the Michelin off-road sole guarantees excellent traction, and the rubber inserts offer protection against stones and roots. The perfect companion for your adventures in the wilderness.

- Good stability
- Careful lacing somewhat time-consuming
A fairly lightweight yet stable hiking boot for all forms of "normal" hiking in the mountains. Good stability in the ankle area.
