Hi-Tec Jackdaw Mid Waterproof Walking Boots
Recommended by The Duke of Edinburgh Award, this super lightweight walking boot is engineered from re-cycled softshell uppers with supportive overlays for extreme comfort and support.
Re-Cycled Softshell Upper
Constructed using a re-cycled softshell upper, the Hi-Tec Jackdaw ensures breathable comfort for all-day wear. The soft nature of the upper wraps your feet in complete comfort whilst perforations within the fabric allow cool air to circulate throughout the upper to increase ventilation. A Dri-Tec membrane also resides within the upper to keep your feet cool, dry and comfortable at all times. Dri-Tec ensures superior waterproofing and excellent vapour transmission to maximise your performance in even the wettest of environments. It works to ensure excess sweat and moisture is wicked away from the skin where it can be easily evaporated whilst also preventing wet weather from gaining entry. The millions of microscopic pores within the Dri-Tec membrane allow water vapour to escape without allowing water droplets in, so your feet will always remain dry and comfortable. Supportive overlays provide optimal protection from rocks and uneven surfaces and lastly, a lacing system which locks down the midfoot to create a snug and secure fit.
EVA Midsole
A full-length platform of moulded EVA resides underfoot for lightweight, responsive cushioning. Generous, soft and durable, it spares your joints as you strike down on hard, unforgiving surfaces. Exceptionally lightweight, the EVA ensures long-lasting cushioning to keep you comfortable on long-distance days. EVA is extremely firm, which will absorb shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole of the foot. The energy produced from this will also be returned as rebound, which will give you an added spring in your step. The midsole ensures you are ready for uneven terrain as you explore the unbeaten path.
Durable Carbon Rubber Outsole
Developed using a carbon rubber outsole, the Hi-Tec Jackdaw provides excellent grip and durability in all weather conditions. Multi-directional lugs on the outsole provide traction on varied terrain ensuring confident footing whether you're hiking or out for a leisurely stroll in the local park. The durable rubber provides a strong grip on the most challenging terrain; it works to protect itself from damage and protect users from losing control and slipping.
