Measurement of the thermal insulation of our shoes.

Based on tests on how the cold is felt in the field and in the laboratory with a panel of users, we measure the thermal resistance of our shoes at rest (static) and in activity (dynamic). It is now possible to know precisely up to what temperature your shoes protect you. Temperature limits of comfort for your shoes are indicated. We take into account differences in sensation between men and women in our data.

Footwear waterproofing test.

Tested in the laboratory, the shoes give you an optimal impermeability. First immersed in water under air pressure, we check the absence of bubbles on the surface of the shoe. Then they are placed on a mechanical arm simulating walking, half immersed in water. We then check if the inside of the shoe remains perfectly dry. These laboratory tests are supplemented with use and aging tests on the field.

3 levels of waterproofing.

During the impermeability test, we tested 3 levels of impermeability 2000 flexions (about 2.5 miles of walking), 4000 flexions (about 5 miles of walking) and 8000 flexions (about 10 miles of walking).

Level of impermeability of the shoe.

This model of boot has been tested up to 2000 flexions equivalent to 2.5 miles of walking.

SNOWCONTACT technology.

SNOWCONTACT soles are designed from a specific component and a cleat design adapted to ensure the best possible grip and adherence. SNOWCONTACT soles are more effective than traditional soles on snow. In case of use on ice, only the addition of anti-slip grips will ensure optimal safety.

Field tests.

All our shoes undergo comfort and use tests carried out by users who are representative of our target market, in conditions identical to those found in typical use. Our Field Test Missions involve the product manager and people who are not affiliated with QUECHUA to test, improve and validate our products.

Laboratory tests.

Laboratory tests were conducted to test the following elements: torn eyelets and straps, bonding, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion of the sole and the components of the upper, accelerated aging.
