Women's waterproof lace-up snow and apres-ski boots Quechua NH500

Description

Warm, padded and waterproof, these boots will accompany you both in the city and in the countryside, and are ideal for your outings in the snow. Are my boots warm enough for my winter hiking trips? We have chosen a warm lining to optimise thermal insulation and effectively protect against the cold. Boots tested in the laboratory and in the field with the collaboration of representative users. We have checked up to what temperature the boot remains comfortable, both when walking and when standing still, as there is a big difference: -8 °C at rest and -17 °C in activity. We take into account the differences in feeling between men and women. How do my boots protect me from the weather? These boots have been designed with a membrane that ensures waterproofness and breathability. A membrane is a very thin component (from 5 to 25 micrometres) applied to the inside of a fabric to prevent water from passing through and to facilitate the evacuation of moisture. What guarantees that my boots are 100% waterproof? We have checked that the boots are waterproof with tests carried out in the laboratory simulating walking with feet half submerged in water, and with use and ageing tests in the field. What is the difference between grip and traction? The grip of the boot depends on the lugs: the quantity and their shape. Traction depends on the materials used for the sole and the shape of the grooves, much like a car tyre. Grip optimises momentum, prevents the boot from slipping on climbs and stabilises the footwear. Traction prevents the boots from slipping and sliding on smooth surfaces or in difficult conditions (rain, snow, ice), providing traction to the sole. What type of grip and traction do these boots provide? Our boots fitted with SNOWCONTACT soles have been designed to provide maximum comfort in terms of grip for hiking and traction on snow. Arrangement and height of the lugs (4 mm), strategically distributed, to offer optimal grip on snow hiking trips. Surface and lug pattern studied to adapt perfectly to the hard snow layer and evacuate excess water so as not to slip. What does the SNOWCONTACT technology of the boot soles provide? SNOWCONTACT soles are made with a specific component and an adapted lug design to ensure the best possible grip and traction. SNOWCONTACT soles are also more effective on snow than classic soles. In case of use on ice, it is necessary to add anti-slip devices to ensure optimal safety. Will the boots offer durable resistance for regular use?
