Tec Storm Waterproof Walking Boot Mens Boots

I ordered my first pair of these shoes in December 2022. I have worn them every day since, but only recently have I started to experience delamination of the sole. That's two and a half years of wear. Almost everyday day. Now, walking boots, specifically for walking, aren't generally worn everyday. They are used for day hikes, camping trips, and as such, if maintained/waterproofed, can last many, many years. But I require wide fitting shoes. For work commutes, camping trips, and hiking. Two and a half years for daily use shoes? And for under £40? I think in that respect, they are an absolute bargain. Comfortable to wear, firm sole, and breathable. And very good in wet conditions. Very happy, and so I have bought a second pair in 2025. Yes, unless you are walking in the hills or on mud, the soles are are a bit hard, which means that wet city streets and ice can be a bit precarious. But still great value for money.

I bought a pair of these back in 2018, regular almost daily light use up until around a year ago when I began walking back & forth to work every weekday, averaging 12-14k steps a day, before the sole finally wore out. Easily my favourite pair of boots in decades & I'm a 6ft1" 18 stone guy so they've taken a lot of punishment, hill-walking, mosh-pit at festivals, they've seen a lot or action and always been comfortable, great fit & the waterproofing has proven reliable. Replacing them today & so glad I could find the same boot is still being made. There are some harder wearing or more waterproof boots but you'd have to pay substantially more, for an everyday boot these are incredible.

Comfortable, stable, reasonably lightweight. They last about a year in daily dog walking use before the waterproofing fails. Considering the price, that's not too bad IMO. I'm on my third pair.

Good quality product, good value, promptly delivered

At first, I was pleased with these boots - they were good value and very comfortable from day one. However, after just a few months of use, I found that the front 'toe bumper' area was wearing out and consisted of a very thin layer of rubbery material glued to suede, rather than a proper layer of rubber that you will find on other boots. The toe bumper may 'look the part' but does not provide any durability or protection. After a few more months of light use, I noticed that the sole of one boot was becoming detached at the front. I've now owned the boots for almost 12 months and the other sole is becoming detached. They are now unusable because of the likelihood of complete failure during a walk and also due to the increased risk of tripping on a detached sole (not funny on striding edge!). I would like to emphasise that the boots have had only light use - if you check on the photographs I've included you will see that the soles are not very worn. I cannot recommend these boots - very disappointed in a brand that in the past I've sworn by. Will avoid in future.

The boots are good quality for the price ,they fit well and are very light , the soles are good and grip well on wet surfaces. These are my second pair of these boots , the first pair are still in use and after a year are still useable . I was going to try a more expensive brand but why take the chance when the originals have been so good . They have proven to be comfortable and well insulated, not too hot in the summer and warm in the winter . Edit... This is now the third pair of these boots , they replace the previous pair that have been in daily use . The boots are not waterproof but you have to consider the price you are paying . In winter, when the dog walks are muddy for most of the time ,I have a pair of expensive boots that are completely water tight and very sturdy but that performance comes at a price (£300) so it would be unfair to expect that degree of performance for a boot at this price . These boots are light and comfortable, they last about a year for me with daily use of about three miles over rough terrain . They look smart and do the job very well . The previous pairs have been UK size 10 , but this time I have gone for the wide fitting in size 9 . They fit well and are comfortable... you just have less colour choice .

Bought these boots beginning of May very comfy to walk in BUT I walked through some wet grass the other day and my feet got wet so they are not waterproof at all if I wasn't past my 30 day limit with amazon I would have (thrown) sent them back but I can't 🤬🤬🤬 I carried on wearing them and 3 months down the line and the sole came away from the boot I shall not be bying any of HI TEC footwear ever again. When I wrote to them they just fobbed me off told me to contact who I bought them off which was Amazon but you get no joy off them after the 30 day limit.

I seldom do any serious cross-country walking, preferring lanes to meadows and roads to footpaths if the paths are muddy or covered with whatever dog owners leave behind because "it's not a pavement" and "there's nobody about anyway". So these boots lead a cosseted life. They walk all over London despite being only size 8, and if I'm wandering around even more, such as the seven miles into Bath and the seven miles back up the hill, my feet never once complain that I'm overdoing it, although maybe my knees will at some point. They're not quite tall enough to offer serious ankle support, but they do cradle my feet nicely. The best endorsement of any shoe is that you forget you're wearing it until you get to the end of the day's walking and realise that your legs aren't frayed at the bottom end. For me, those are those boots. Glove-like and presently very comfortable to wear. I have plenty of comfortable shoes, some much more expensive than these. That doesn't make these the poor relation, far from it. They're the ones I use the most, unless I really can't avoid filth and hard work! For that, I'll use working boots.

Avevo già acquistato in passato degli scarponi della Hi-Tec, che pur essendo molto comodi non erano impermeabili. Ho voluto provare questo nuovo modello e ne sono decisamente soddisfatto, hanno un rapporto qualità prezzo incredibile. Dopo averli usati per una decina di escursioni, posso dire che i materiali sono resistenti e le cuciture ben fatte. La soletta interna è di una schiuma morbida e confortevole, la suola ha il giusto compromesso tra rigidità (per non sentire troppo le asperità del terreno) e flessibilità. Usati anche sotto la pioggia intensa per un paio di volte, i piedi sono rimasti perfettamente asciutti.

These are replacements for a previous pair of Hi-Tec boots which gave me excellent service for many years. They are exceedingly comfortable and I am expecting many years of hard wearing use.

Verkar vara av bra kvalitet. Passar ok- Har normalt 42, men med lite grövre strumpor, hade jag behövt gå upp en storlek. Kan tänka mig köpa denna sko igen. Behöver impregnering för att vara täta.

Fijne wandelschoen, makkelijke instap. Rubber op de neus is flinterdun en erg kwetsbaar.
