A roomy alpine-trekking model that gives your cherished toes space. For traditional-boot buffs, the Bouthan GTX offers inestimable comfort and complete protection.

On the menu: Vibram outsole (for peerless traction) and Gore-Tex bootie (for high-performance waterproofness), with leather outer. “We’re the only brand to use perforated leather with a Gore-Tex membrane to optimize breathability,” explains Simone, product manager. “The nubuck we use is the best, most rugged leather. It gives the product unheard-of longevity if it’s well looked after. The leather conforms to your feet and lives with you over time, becoming a second skin.” These are serious boots for long-range hiking, offering unrivalled stability and durability, and proven robustness. A mid-cut design that protects against impacts, thanks to its top cap and full rubber rand.

Choose the Bouthan GTX for: - the GR20 trek through Corsica, discovering Reunion Island’s volcanos and cirques, or exploring trails in the Vosges Mountains of eastern France! - a great spring or autumn trek in Nepal - For work: rope-access and at-height assignments.
