  • My Salomon's have started falling apart, anyone recommend some nice walking boots that will last a long time?

    1. Max £200
    2. For winter and summer use, so wet and dry conditions
    3. Boot style rather than shoe style.

  • If you happen to be a size 9.5 I’ve some adidas Terrex gtx that I’ve used three times, but don’t quite fit me that I’m looking to sell!

    Id recommend them though (in the right size!) - they’re a proper “boot” but very well cushioned, and just comfortable to wear. I bought them for Suillven and surrounding hills back earlier this year, and they’re really good for both the really rocky stuff where trail running shoes can falter but also the long walks on tarmac where walking boots often suck. Really can’t fault them, with the exception that they (at least the gore tex gtx ones) are quite volumous- i have super narrow feet which just don’t seem to fill the space. I find my feet slip forward in the boots on descents.

    I can’t imagine getting old-style boots ever again for general hill walking type stuff.
