Brasher Brown Men's Country Master Waterproof Leather Walking Boots with Vibram Outsole, Men's Hiking Boots, Men's Outdoor and Recreational Footwear

Product Information

When buying Waterproof Boots, the quality of the product is going to be one of the factors that you really scrutinise before you commit to buying.

They are not as heavy as I thought they might be, but they are a substantial boot which, when compared to something like the KEEN Terradora, weighing in at 700g (or there abouts, I’m not sure how accurate my bathroom scales are) per boot for my size sevens. The weight isn’t an issue to me at all, and now mine are broken in I can confirm they are super comfortable and very stable on the trail. And that bright yellow upper? LOVE it! It’s just what a hiking boot should look like, in my opinion, and means the photos taken in the corn field just look great! Breaking in Leather Hiking Boots This shoe is a more rugged women’s boot that mimics other styles. At the same time, it does this while still looking attractive and not too masculine.Of course the continuation of the actual boots doesn’t mitigate the basic sadness of saying goodbye to a long-established, iconic brand that arguably created the first genuinely innovative lightweight outdoor boot when Chris Brasher combined running shoe technology with the high-ankled format after suffering serious blisters while walking the roof of Wales in traditional boots. That soft suede leather is waterproofed with Gore-Tex, the soles offer great grip and stability even on tough terrain, and the boots look very smart, especially if you keep the leather in good condition. Brasher have a great looking pair of leather hiking boots in the Country Master, a traditional shaped boot in that yellowy-brown suede that has been associated with hill walking for generations. While my first wear of these was not uncomfortable, I knew they were never going to be day hike ready straight from the box like some of the other boots I’ve tested out recently. I received mine from the guys over at Millets, who sell a wide range of hiking boots for all kinds of hiker. After choosing the lighter material boots for many years, they wanted to know what I thought of a more traditional pair. I have heard a lot of people suggest short cuts to breaking in leather hiking boots, such as heating up the leather and manipulating, using a tennis ball to work the stiff parts of the leather, and other things. I am sure that these techniques do work in some cases, but I maintain that nothing is quite as effective than putting the boots on your own feet and spending time in them before you rely on them for any serious walking. It’s just the sensible thing to do. Criticism is rare with this Brasher Country Women’s Hiking Boot, aside from some sizing and minor faults.

Using the table: Survey (conducted in March and April 2021) is based on data from 3,118 Which? members who own walking boots bought since 2016. ‘-’ = there isn’t enough data. Average price paid is based on the mean amount members paid for their footwear. Customer score is based on satisfaction and whether members would recommend the brand. Zamberlan walking boots The word ‘improvements’ is guaranteed to make brand fans shudder, but in this case, it’s all good with the main change being a switch to more reliably grippy Vibram rubber for the outsoles of the Hillmaster and Supalite, but with no change to the distinctive mud-friendly, anti-clogging studded sole. And there’s no increase in price either.

Choosing Leather Hiking Boots

Since then the brand’s produced a succession of seminal brown leather boots including the best-selling Hillmaster, relaunched as the Hillmaster II in 2013 and the ultra-lightweight Supalite. At the same time, a succession of fabric boots and, in particular, mostly fabric approach shoes have flopped repeatedly, all of them slightly ‘wrong’ in the same way as Marks and Spencer’s attempts at trendy fashion designs.

Choosing leather boots over other materials is a personal choice. You can do all types and distances of hiking in either these days, and so your decision will be totally based on personal preference and comfort.
