These boots keep children warm and dry during occasional hikes on compacted snow. They provide reliable protection.
How can you preserve the technical qualities of these boots?
Water repellency is the ability of a fabric to let water slide off its surface without absorbing it. It is obtained by applying a treatment to the outer surface of the fabric. This treatment must be renewed throughout the lifetime of the boots, thanks to specialised products (spray, liquid).
Are these boots warm enough for my children’s hikes?
We perform comparative studies carried out in a thermal laboratory, in walking conditions in light winds (5km/h). This is how we measure the thermal resistance of our boots. However every individual feels the cold differently.
Comfort temperature: felt slightly cold & 70% of users find the thermal sensation acceptable on their feet.
Limit temperature: felt very cold & 10% of users consider the thermal sensation acceptable on their feet.
What is the difference between traction and grip?
The traction of the boots depends on the number and shape of the studs. The grip is dependent on the materials of the sole and the tread pattern, like the tyres of your car. Traction optimises propulsion, prevents the boot from slipping backwards when going uphill and stabilises the boot.
Grip prevents the boot from slipping and skidding on smooth ground or in demanding conditions (rain, snow, ice) by giving the sole grip.
How do I choose the right footwear for snow hiking?
To be well equipped in winter, we recommend that you follow these guidelines :
Warmth: warmth provided by a warm pair of socks (ideally containing a suitable percentage of wool)
Breathability: Choose the sock according to the intensity of the hike and make sure you wear a breathable model to minimise moisture.
Boot height: adapt the height of the sock to the height of the upper and preferably choose high models if you want more protection.
Our tips on use and care
The boot can accumulate moisture (sweat, condensation). If there is a lot of moisture, remove the insole, stuff it with newspaper and change the paper regularly to speed up the drying process. Avoid any direct sources of heat; Leave to dry in a warm, dry, well-ventilated place.
The SH100 WARM waterproof boots offer excellent traction on snow thanks to their Snowcontact sole. Their wide opening makes them easy to put on and provides good support for children’s ankles.
