“My previous experience has always been with soft fabric boots, these leather ones take a bit of getting used to as they are much stiffer. As a result, they are more supportive and better for rough terrain and mountain hikes. The high heel lift makes walking uphill easier, but also shifts your weight more onto your knees on the downhill, so this is something to be aware of. The waterproofing is excellent, I have taken them on three hikes on very boggy terrain in Wales and feet stayed bone dry. I like that the laces open so wide that you can get your feet in and out of the boots without having to yank them. I give 4 stars instead of five because, while wide fit, they do not have a genuine wide toe box; it still tapers at the front. My little toe feels a bit squashed and I’m unsure how comfortable they will be for very long or multi-day hikes. I wish boot manufacturers would make foot-shaped boots!”
“The peaklander walking boots are my go to for walking boots and i won't wear any other outdoor walking foot wear other than grisport. iv'e covered over 2000 miles on my current peaklander boots (ready for bin now) iv'e waterproofed them twice this year and they're still water tight but they are splitting on the upper right at the botton of lacing loops. I weigh between 18 to 19 stone so if i was 6 stone lighter or more i would have gotten more milage from them and because of my high weight the grip on certain parts of the sole have worn down wear to a smooth surface within 6 months but iv'e kept wearing them beceause they're so robust. i would'nt say they are the most comfortable for heaveir people but if you are under a certain weight then they would be comfortable and the price for these boots are incredible. i will be using grisport walking footwear for years to come as long they don't skimp out on robustness, quality and price.”
“This will be my 5th pair of Grisport boots, excellent for all weathers, more comfortable than any other make, and good value for money. I've tried other boots but none compare!”
“My wife wont wear anything else she loves the fact you can wear the boots with thick or thin socks and dont get a blister, but she mostly wears the lovely socks that she bought from Grisport as they keep her feet warm she has arthuritis in her feet and keeps walking with the help of the Boots and Socks, she is a realy trooper.”
