There are few experiences more rewarding than heading out into the wild in search of some adventure and when you’ve got the right footwear on your feet that offers the sort of comfort and performance that you’ll demand, this enjoyment is ramped up significantly. If you’re planning on some outdoor sojourns over the next 12 months, you’re going to want to check out our pick of the best men’s hiking boots below:
Adidas Terrex Free Hiker GTX | $225
The Terrex Free Hiker GTX Hiking Boot from Adidas is a best-of-both-worlds combination of hiking boot and trail shoe. Pull them on for extra speed and comfort on a rugged expedition through the mountains or a fun weekend hitting the trails.
Erem Xerocole Hiking Boots | $170
Erem have created some of the best desert performance gear on the market, and strive to build that gear with eco-friendly materials. With canvas and leather uppers and a durable one-piece sole, the Xerocole hiking boots are engineered to keep you comfortable and protected no matter how long your desert journey lasts.
Vans Ultrarange EXO HI MTE -1 | $85
Boasting a modern high-top style with everyday sneaker wearability, there’s a lot to like about the Ultrarange EXO from Vans. They boast an upgraded UltraCush Lite midsole compound offers lightweight comfort and cushioning.
Huckberry x Danner – Logger 917 | $245
The waterproof, full-grain leather of these Logger 917 is the quality you’d expect from Danner’s heritage boots. While the lightweight, cushioned sole grounded in Vibram tread feels as comfy as a pick from Huckberry’s sneaker collection. Whether you’re putting in a day’s work in the city or escaping for a day hike on the weekend, this batch of Loggers is built to be with you every step of the way.
Amundsen Mountain Muck Low Cut | $292
The Mountain Mucks from Amundsen are actually two pieces in one: a soft and insulating inner boot surrounded by a sturdy outer boot. Amundsen uses precision shoe-making techniques and cutting-edge materials for a modern take on this centuries-old concept that’s inspired by traditional footwear.
Lems Boulder Boot Waterproof | $165
Lems has upgraded their Boulder Boot with a waterproof, full-grain leather treatment. It’s everything we love about the Boulder Boot here at Coolector HQ but classed up just the right amount with striking leather. Despite the new material, the weight and versatility hasn’t changed. At a featherlight 12.9 oz., the Boulder Boot is the ideal travel ally, as the heel and toe can be completely folded together to save space.
Season Three Ultralight Hiking Boots | $198
Season Three was started by highly-opinionated graduate students at MIT who came to realise that they cared more about physical products than software. Like these hiking boots – which are inspired by old classics usually picked by European mountaineers back in the ’70s and ’80s, this is a boot rugged enough for any trail but still refined enough for a night on the town.
Filson x White’s Work Boots | $450
The two iconic outfitters from opposite sides of Washington State have joined forces for an all-purpose utility boot that just won’t quit wherever your adventures take you. Filson x White’s Shop Boots are crafted with thick, full-grain roughout leather that hides scrapes and scars and stands up to abusive work environments. A sturdy steel shank delivers all-day support for long days on the job and the Goodyear-welted construction is easily resoleable for a lifetime of service.
Kodiak Stave Waterproof Hiker | $175
Exploring the natural world and doing their part to preserve it come together in the eco-considered Stave hiking boot from Kodiak Boots. Waterproof, insulated and built with recycled content and low-impact materials from the bottom up, it reliably delivers performance and comfort on and off the trail.
Goruck MACV-1 – Mid Top – Origins Edition | $119
Trees are more important today than ever before. More than 10,000 products are reportedly made from trees. Through chemistry, the humble woodpile is yielding chemicals, plastics and fabrics that were beyond comprehension when an axe first felled a Texas tree.
