Product Customer Reviews
Really high quality, outperforming my much more expensive pairs in the same conditions.
The rising part has an intermediate height (neither really high nor low), which means that the edges hurt the ankle with each movement of the foot on uneven ground, from the first use. Very unfortunate!
This shoe offers excellent support with two possible lace lock heights, which offers an excellent compromise between a high shoe and a low shoe. Comfort and waterproofing are still there after several months of use during this wet winter. Excellent value for money compared to other brands used previously.
I use it for excursions in the forest on rainy days, what a pleasure to finally stop slipping!
I really like this model, but I just regret its slight lack of breathability. Otherwise, it's great
comfortable and sturdy
It's not always easy to choose between low-top or high-top hiking boots. These mid-top shoes are a good compromise: they hold the foot well while remaining fairly lightweight. Sometimes a little disconcerting because the laces loosen while walking. They quickly become comfortable (no need to wear them for long to break them in).
very good shoes for all terrains both for the city on wet strong days and in the mountains on snow
They are very good, I just put some gel insoles in them and then they went to a higher level. I recommend them.
Used for 15 days, perfect, light, front stone guard, good crampon, we'll see over time. Fair price.
The only downside is that they are sold without a box.
Truly incredible for the price: waterproof yet more breathable than my Gore-Tex shoes, so there's no smell ;), very comfortable even for my wide feet, extremely durable. I usually destroy every hiking shoe in 6 months, but these have held up well for over a year (hikes, construction sites, motorcycle tours). Washed twice in the washing machine without damage. Sufficient support and cushioning even with a body weight of over 100 kg. I'm immediately stocking up on a second pair.
Very comfortable
I used the previous model well and was very satisfied. So I bought the successor model in 2024. Unfortunately, one of the eyelets for the shoelace ripped out this morning while tying it up on the mountain. One hiking boot, one year... I don't think that's okay.
Excellent hiking shoes, very comfortable. I had them in Madeira and they passed the test very well during hiking, even in the rain. They did not get wet, they hold the foot well, thanks to special cuffs used in the shoe. I sincerely recommend buying this model, satisfaction guaranteed. Włodek

Outdoor contact sole
New high-performance sole with our new exclusive rubber blend developed by our experts. More grippy, more durable. The sole is designed for better grip using 3D simulations and then laboratory tested to assess the coefficient of grip on different surfaces and conditions. Field tests in the mountains allow us to do the final validation with a panel of testers. 30% rubber
Waterproofing test
In a laboratory, the boot is immersed in water to mid-height on a mechanical arm that flexes to simulates a number of steps. With this test we can determine a time and number of km that the boot can walk while staying dry. Then we confirm in the field or under the rain, that the shoe meets its promises.
Extended waterproofing
To keep your feet dry, we advise you to use a waterproof gaiter or mini-gaiter to protect the top of your boots and prevent water, pebbles and sand from getting in.We advise re-waterproofing your boots twice a year using a re-waterproofing agent (search for ‘waterproofing’ on our Decathlon website) which will help you restore the original water-repellent qualities and help prevent stains on the outside.
Which size should i select?
Some Decathlon stores have a test route.1. Try on both shoes, standing up, with the socks worn for hiking. 2. Tighten the laces, taking care to correctly balance the tightening.3. Check two points:- the heel does not come up before the boot when you walk uphill.- the foot does not slide and the toes do not press against the front when going downhill.4. Try on several sizes and models.Break them in gradually to adapt them to your foot.
How to prevent blisters
Blisters generally develop when the skin is weakened by friction. In order to prevent them from occurring, we recommend the following: - Choose a shoe in your size.- Wear suitable socks- Tie and tighten your shoes properly.- Make sure you tighten or loosen your laces accordingly while wearing your shoes, especially before starting a climb or a descent. - Wear your shoes on a short trip for the first use.
Which socks?
A waterproof shoe will be less breathable than a non-waterproof shoe. Mid-length socks like the MH500, MH520 and MH900 are therefore preferable for absorbing perspiration and reducing overheating.
Optimise the capabilities of your shoes by replacing your insoles
The original insole in your boots is designed to accommodate most feet. A change of insole can bring:1. Improved support: some soles are preformed or reinforced to better support the arch of the foot. 2. More comfort: the insoles can also provide heat and/or cushioning.3. Longer life: restore the support and comfort of your shoes by replacing the insole each season.
How should you look after your boots?
- Leave to air dry.- Remove dry mud with a stiff brush. - Clean marks using a brush and some warm water- Leave to dry- Spray with a re-waterproofing product to restore the water-resistance to the upper.
Product testing
Our hiking shoes are first tested in our Decathlon Sportslab laboratory, based in Lille, which also contributes to the innovation and development of our Quechua products. It brings together several themes, each with their own area and technological tools.
