Stop slipping.

A hiking shoe with a multi-lug, non-slip rubber outsole and a breathable mesh upper. It holds steady on wet rock and loose ground, and it's light enough to forget you're wearing it.
“Light shoes don't grip. That's why I wear boots.”
In a flat trainer, that's true: a smooth sole has nothing to hold with on wet rock or loose gravel. But grip doesn't come from weight. It comes from the outsole. This one is multi-lug, non-slip rubber, designed for traction on wet surfaces, loose gravel and uneven trail. Above it sits a breathable mesh and synthetic upper that's lighter than a winter boot and moves with your foot instead of against it. The grip you wore the boots for, without carrying them all day.
Great hiking shoes. The non-slip sole is legitimately effective on wet rocks and mud. Comfortable for multi-hour hikes. Recommended.
Six reasons walkers are leaving the heavy boots at home
Grip that holds on wet rock
The multi-lug, non-slip rubber outsole is designed for traction on wet surfaces, loose gravel and uneven trail. It holds steady on wet rock and loose ground, right where flat-soled footwear loses its grip.
Light enough to forget you're wearing them
Lighter construction than a winter boot, without giving up structure. No heavy-boot fatigue in your legs by the last mile, and no dead weight on every step back to the car park.
Breathable mesh, cool all day
The mesh upper keeps your feet cool on long outdoor days. No overheating halfway up a warm trail, and no hot, heavy feet by the time you're back at the car.
Flexes with your foot, not against it
The mesh and synthetic upper moves with the foot rather than locking it into a rigid structure. Less resistance on longer walks and on uneven ground, where a stiff boot fights every step.
Ready for damp trails and light rain
The upper is water resistant: the mesh and synthetic construction resists light moisture during trail use. Wet grass, damp paths and light rain are what it's made for. Stream crossings and standing water are not.
Trail to town, one pair
The profile works on the trail and off it, so the same pair covers the walk, the dog walk and the school run after. Eleven colours, from all-black to bright two-tones, so they go with what you already wear.

What gives it grip without the weight?
Most trail footwear makes you choose: a heavy boot that grips, or a light trainer that slides. This one splits the job across three parts:
- Multi-lug, non-slip rubber outsole The tread does the gripping, not the weight above it. It's designed for traction on wet surfaces, loose gravel and uneven trail, and it holds steady on wet rock and loose ground where a flat sole loses grip.
- Breathable mesh and synthetic upper The mesh keeps your feet cool on long days, and the synthetic sections give the shoe its structure. Together they resist light moisture, so damp conditions and light rain are covered.
- Flexible, lighter build The upper moves with your foot instead of locking it into a rigid structure, and the shoe is built lighter than a winter boot. Less resistance on every step, and no heavy-boot fatigue by the end of the day.
Honest limits: it's water resistant, not waterproof, so a stream crossing or standing water will come in. It's a three-season shoe, not a winter boot. And on wet rock, any sole still asks you to place your feet with care.

Good questions
What size should I order?
Sizes run from UK 5 to UK 12.5 (EU 38 to 48). Measure your foot from heel to longest toe and match it to the foot length in the size chart, which switches between cm and inches; use the EU column as your guide (UK 6 is EU 39, UK 9 is EU 43). If you land between two sizes, the larger one is the safer order.
Are they unisex?
Yes, they're a unisex shoe, listed in UK sizes from UK 5 to UK 12.5. Measure your foot and pick by foot length on the size chart rather than by the size you usually buy.
Are they waterproof?
No, and we won't pretend otherwise. They're water resistant: the mesh and synthetic upper resists light moisture during trail use, so damp conditions and light rain are fine. Standing water, deep puddles or a stream crossing will come in, and for those days a waterproof boot is the right tool.
How do they grip on wet rock and gravel?
That's what the outsole is for. The multi-lug, non-slip rubber is designed for traction on wet surfaces, loose gravel and uneven trail, and it holds steady on wet rock and loose ground. Wet rock still deserves a careful foot placement, whatever you're wearing.
Are they heavy?
No. They're built lighter than a winter boot without giving up structure, light enough to forget you're wearing them on a long day. The grip comes from the outsole, not from a heavy upper.
Will my feet overheat?
The upper is breathable mesh, made to keep your feet cool on long outdoor days. On a warm trail that's the big difference from a heavy boot.
Can I wear them in winter?
They're a three-season shoe, designed for spring, summer and autumn conditions. They're built lighter than a winter boot, so for snow and deep cold, a proper winter boot is the better pick.
Can I wear them every day?
Yes. The profile works on the trail and off it, so they're practical for daily outdoor use beyond dedicated walks. The dog walk, the school run and the trail all in the same pair.
Does every colour come in every size?
Not every colour comes in every size. The size picker shows the sizes available for the colour you choose, so pick your colour first and then your size.
How do I clean them?
Hand wash only. Knock the dried mud off the outsole first, then clean the upper with water and a soft brush and let them air dry.
What if they don't fit?
Start a return within 30 days of delivery. Standard shipping is free on every order, and every order comes with a tracking number, live within 24 to 48 hours of dispatch.
