Are they Quechua or Simond?
Quechua are their hiking and camping brand...
Can highly recommend the current Simond mountaineering boots. Outstanding value for money.

Quechua, but to be fair they're not fully rigid but enough for crampons so all purpose rather than technical mountaineering. Have had them up to 5,200 metres though
Edit: got height wrong and sounded like I was exaggerating to sound cool

The Simond clothing is actually pretty stylish.
I picked myself up a few base and mid layers last night including some nice merino but Decathlon have got a serious stock shortage at the moment. I suppose that’s down to everyone staying at home for holidays and going camping.

I've got a pair of Quechua mountaineering boots from years back (12 years plus?) And they're great - still going strong.
Obviously for all that tells you about longevity, no idea if the current range are the same / same manufacturing standards...
