walking boots are footwear specially designed for uneven terrain, rocky areas, often wet, and where protection is essential. Unlike trail or trekking shoes, most of the walking boots have a medium or even a high topmodel. This upper is the one that will protect us from possible twists and stones or protrusions during our journey, offering us extra support.
Taking care of our feet and joints when we go into more complicated terrain is essential. If we don't, we could suffer important injuries (for example, ankle sprains, the most common in the mountains). That is why we always insist on the importance of buying the right footwear for the use we are going to give it. Ready to help you choose your ideal allies to venture into new routes, from RUNNEA we bring you this selection.
