Someone once told me there are two things worth investing in: your bed and your footwear, because that’s where you spend most of your time. I couldn't agree more, and it always runs through my mind when I am buying any kind of performance footwear, like a pair of new hiking boots.
Heading into the hills or tackling technical trails requires the right hiking boots in order to stay safe, supported, and blister-free. I’ve tested dozens of boots over the years across trails like the Arrochar Alps in Scotland, the Massif des Calanques in southern France, and the high alpine tracks of Val d’Anniviers in the Swiss Alps.
