These warm leather shoes will give you comfort when snow hiking in cold weather. The high upper will allow you to hike with confidence on any type of snow.

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 shoe has been tested up to 4,000 flexions, equivalent to 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. In particular, our Test assignments bring together the product manager and people not affiliated with Quechua, who test, evaluate and validate the products.

Laboratory tests.

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