TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Footwear waterproofing test.
Laboratory- and field- tested, these boots have a Waterproof membrane to ensure optimal waterproofing and breathability. First, the shoe is immersed in water while internal air pressure is applied to check that no bubbles form on the surface of the footwear. Next, the boots are fitted to a mechanical arm that simulates walking, half immersed in water so we can test that the inside remains perfectly dry.
3 levels of waterproofing.
During the waterproofness test, we test 3 levels of waterproofness:
2,000 flexes (approx. 4 km walk)
4,000 flexes (approx. 8 km walk)
8,000 flexes (approx. 16 km walk).
Of course, after this test or in use, the boot regains its original waterproofing once dry.
Footwear waterproof level.
The W TREK 500 boot has been tested and validated for 8,000 flexes, equivalent to a 16 km walk in water reaching the mid-upper.
Lab tests
Laboratory tests were conducted to test the following elements:
- tearing of the eyelets and straps
- bonding of the sole
- toxicology
- UV resistance
- abrasion of the sole and components of the upper
- accelerated ageing.
Care tips
Use a brush and/or sponge to clean the boot and remove any dirt or mud.
Then leave to air dry, away from any heat source.
Finish with a nourishing cream to keep the leather supple and prolong the life of the boot.
Buying Tips
Try on both boots, standing up, with the socks worn for hiking.
Try several models and various sizes if necessary.
Check two comfort points: the base of the heel and the front part of the foot going down.
Avoid all pressure points when trying shoes on.
Don't hesitate to walk around the store.
Break in your boots gradually during their first hikes to adapt them to your foot.
