Main Material

The boots’ thermal insulation when stationary (static -6°C) and when walking (dynamic -15°C) is based on field and lab tests conducted with users. This gives you an accurate measure of the temperature at which these boots protect you. The comfort temperature ratings for your boots are displayed. We take into account that men and women feel the chill differently.

Are my boots warm enough for winter hikes?

A membrane ensures optimal water resistance. A membrane is a very fine component (between 5 and 25 micrometres) affixed to the inside of a fabric that prevents water from infiltrating while letting moisture escape. These boots keep your feet warm and dry. The outer and the midsole insulate from cold contact with snow.

How do my boots protect me from outdoor conditions?

Thermal comfort is a balance between warmth and breathability. Too much heat or not enough breathability lets moisture accumulate and cold set in. This membrane is designed with your activities in mind, preventing water infiltration and letting moisture escape.

Breathable boots for optimal thermal comfort.

We made sure that your boots are waterproof by conducting laboratory tests that simulate walking with the boots half-submerged in water. We also conducted field tests to measure wear and aging. We tested 3 levels of waterproofing: 2,000 flexes (approx. 4-km hike), 4,000 flexes (approx. 8-km hike), and 8,000 flexes (approx. 16-km hike). This boot has been tested for up to 4,000 flexes, equivalent to an 8-km hike.

Are my boots 100% waterproof?

A boot’s traction depends on tread number and shape. The grip depends on the sole materials and the tread pattern, like car tires. Traction optimizes propulsion, prevents slipping when going uphill, and stabilizes the boot. 
Grip prevents the boot from slipping and skidding on smooth ground or in demanding conditions (rain, snow, and ice).

What is the difference between traction and grip?

Boots with Snow Contact soles provide maximum grip for hiking and traction on snow. The strategic spacing and height of the lugs (3 mm) offer optimal grip when hiking on snow. The lugs are designed to grip hard snow and evacuate excess water to avoid slipping.

Which type of grip and traction does this boot provide?

The material and tread of Snow Contact soles are specifically designed for optimal grip and traction. Snow Contact soles are more effective on snow than traditional soles. When walking on ice, adding anti-slip grips to your boots is the only way to ensure optimum safety.

What are the advantages of Snow Contact technology?

This product was lab-tested by our engineers to ensure your total satisfaction. We tested the following elements: tear resistance of eyelets and straps, bonding, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion resistance of outsole and upper components, and accelerated aging.

Will my boots withstand regular use in the long term?

Follow these guidelines for winter activities: Warmth: wear warm socks (ideally with a good percentage of wool).
Breathability: choose socks based on the intensity of the hike and make sure they’re breathable, to minimize moisture accumulation.
Boot height: the height of the sock should correspond to the height of the boot—for more protection, choose higher socks.

The right footwear for hiking in snow

Water repellency is a fabric’s capacity to make water run off its surface without being absorbed. It prevents the fabric from soaking up water, keeping it lightweight, warm, and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. This treatment needs to be reapplied throughout the product’s lifetime. Products for this purpose (spray and liquid) are available in our stores.

leather origin

type of leather

Animals are naturally equipped to adapt to the conditions of their environment: feathers and fur trap air to insulate against the cold or the heat, paws are adapted for movement across diverse, demanding, and changing terrains. The Lynx, the master of snowy conditions, inspired your boot’s design: large paws protected and insulated against the cold and pads made for easy movement and agility on the snow.

A boot inspired by nature: the lynx, the snow feline.

We chose an ultra-warm, high-volume, insulating lining to give you effective protection from the cold. 
Lab- and field-tested with hikers. We verified the comfort temperature both at rest and walking as this can vary significantly: -6°C when stationary and -15°C when moving. We also considered how men and women feel the chill differently.

Your boots are designed with leather and a membrane to guarantee waterproofing and breathability. A membrane is an extremely fine component (5 to 25 micrometres) affixed to the inside of a fabric that prevents water from entering but allows moisture to escape. The high upper with an elastic gaiter protects against the cold and prevents snow from entering while the midsole gives you perfect insulation. Your feet will be well protected, warm, and dry.

Thermal comfort is a balance between warmth and breathability. Too much heat or not enough breathability lets moisture accumulate and cold set in. Inspired by your activities, a membrane prevents water infiltration on one side and lets moisture escape on the other.

Boots with Snow Contact soles provide maximum grip comfort for hiking and traction on snow. The location and height of the studs (5 mm) is inspired by lynx paws; they are spaced strategically for optimal grip when hiking on snow on steep terrain. The lugs are designed to grip hard snow and evacuate excess water to avoid slipping.

The support provided by your boots is essential for your walking comfort. Good support optimizes your ascent and descent over hilly terrain, prevents your foot from sliding in the boot, and reduces blisters. The boots save you energy, reducing fatigue. This is especially important when snowshoeing.

Why is support important in a hiking boot?

Leather is ultra-comfortable, durable (natural material), and flexible.
This material is waterproof and naturally breathable. 
Warm in the winter and cool in the mid-season, leather naturally regulates the temperature of the boot.
Brush your boots with a soft brush to maintain them and extend their life.

Our hiker-designers have designed these  NH150 Mid waterproof boots for your occasional hikes on the flat in rainy weather.

Duration

Weather Conditions

The sole’s design is the result of extensive research conducted in our labs. It is composed of a specific rubber formula that optimizes grip and traction. We are systematically looking for the best compromise for walking on soft (e.g. forest paths) and stony (e.g. coastal paths) hiking trails.
When used on roads, this can lead to the premature wear of your boots and cause discomfort. They’re not suitable for mountain hiking.

Resistant soles for walking trails

Laboratory tests were conducted to test the following elements: tear resistance of eyelets and straps, bonding, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion resistance of outsole and upper components, and accelerated aging. We use these tests to improve the quality of our products and prevent the premature wear of our hiking shoes.

Tested for durability and optimal resistance

NH150 WP boots have been tested for 2000 flexes in the laboratory. So they are waterproof for 2 hours of hiking. We tested 3 levels of waterproofing: - 2000 flexes, about 2 hours of hiking
- 4000 flexes, about 4 hours of hiking
- 8000 flexes, about 8 hours of hiking
We recommend you use a re-waterproofing spray several times a year, which lets you regain the original water-repellency and limit stains. 

Waterproof boots for 2 hours of hiking in rainy weather

These shoes are laboratory- and field-tested and have a membrane to ensure that they are optimally waterproof and breathable. The shoe is first immersed in water while internal air pressure is applied to check that no bubbles form on its surface. Next, the shoes are placed on a mechanical arm that simulates walking and are half immersed in water to test that the insides remain perfectly dry.

How do we test the waterproofing of your shoes?

Thanks to your feedback, we have improved the design of the NH 150 waterproof mid shoes. 
The new model features an EVA interlayer sole (ethylene vinyl acetate) that cushions against stones underfoot to improve comfort. 

Your feedback made this product better!

Try on both shoes, standing up, wearing your walking socks. Try on several models or sizes if necessary. Check two comfort points: 
- the heel seating
- the front of the foot on a downward slope
Avoid any pressure points when fitting. Feel free to walk around to test the comfort and support.  Break your shoes in gradually during your first few hiking trips.

How to choose the right size walking shoes

These boots are somewhat breathable, but not enough to release all of the moisture created by your sweat. We recommend that you wear them with Hike 100 mid socks: they are made with moisture-absorbing cotton and have a reverse terry-knit structure underneath that wicks moisture away from your feet. They’re also high enough to protect your ankles. High socks reduce the chance of blisters.

A membrane ensures optimal water resistance. A membrane is a very fine component (between 5 and 25 micrometres) affixed to the inside of a fabric that prevents water from infiltrating while letting moisture escape. These boots keep your feet warm and dry. The sole insulates against contact with snow.

We made sure that your shoes are waterproof by conducting laboratory tests to simulate walking with the boots half submerged in water. We also conducted field tests to measure wear and ageing. We tested 3 levels of waterproofing: 2,000 flexes (approx. 4-km hike), 4,000 flexes (approx. 8-km hike), and 8,000 flexes (approx. 16-km hike). This shoe has been tested for up to 8,000 flexes, which is equivalent to 16 km of walking.

A boot’s traction depends on the number and shape of treads. The grip depends on the sole materials and the tread pattern, like car tires. Traction optimizes propulsion, prevents slipping when going uphill, and stabilizes the boot. 
Grip prevents the boots from slipping and skidding on smooth ground or in demanding conditions (rain, snow, and ice).

The Snow Contact soles are designed using a specific component and stud pattern (5 mm) to provide the best possible grip and traction. Snow Contact soles are more effective on snow than traditional soles. When walking on ice, adding anti-slip grips to your shoes is the only way to ensure optimum safety.

We designed these shoes for hiking on snow, with or without snowshoes. The upper of the shoe (mid-height) combined with gaiters (external or integrated in the pants), helps prevent snow getting in. Waterproof and warm, their support and rigidity are more suited to snowshoeing.

Are your shoes suitable for snowshoeing?

“To be well equipped in winter, we recommend that you follow these guidelines : Warmth: wear warm socks (ideally with a good percentage of wool).
Breathability: choose socks based on the intensity of the hike and, to minimize moisture, make sure they’re breathable.
Boot height: the height of the sock should correspond to the height of the boot—for more protection, choose higher socks.

This parka was developed for winter conditions such as intense cold, snow, blizzards. Insulation is provided by the thick synthetic wadding that traps air (double layer on the body and single layer at the arms).
A long inner flap beneath the zipper blocks cold air. The system is supplemented by a drawstring at the hem to make the jacket comfortable down to -20°C.

Is my jacket warm enough for winter hikes?

Your jacket has a waterproof material that keeps out water and wind. To stay warm in winter, you must also protect your extremities (head, hands, feet). The anti-blizzard hood’s detachable synthetic fur, wrist sleeves, and rising collar keep the cold out. The fleece-lined, high handwarmer pockets perfectly protect your hands.

How does my jacket protect me from outdoor conditions?

A coating applied to the outer fabric of your jacket makes it waterproof. The resistance of a fabric to water pressure is expressed in terms of the height in mm of a water column. The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a waterproofing resistance of 18,000 mm resists the pressure of 18,000 mm of water. This test was carried out before washing.

How can I be sure that my jacket is 100% waterproof?

Taped main seams ensure that your jacket is waterproof. The inside seams are also sealed with waterproof tape to make them watertight and prevent water from seeping into more vulnerable areas.
A waterproofing test is conducted that replicates the conditions of a two-hour rain shower. The jacket was also field-tested in all weather conditions to make sure it’s suitable for your activities.

Water often gets in through the seams. Does my jacket have waterproof seams?

Practical, smart details: 2 hand warmer pockets, 2 outside flap pockets, 1 secure inside pocket, 2 inside mesh pockets, to keep everything handy. 
The main zipper has a long zipper pull and snap buttons as well as a thumb pass so you can open or close your jacket while keeping your hands snug in your gloves. The 2 zippers at the bottom of the jacket allow you to easily bend or sit down comfortably.

A practical jacket with smart details

This parka is designed to fit comfortably when worn with a warm second layer like a fleece or light down jacket.
The longline style is ideal for protecting you from the cold and wind during winter hikes in open hilly areas or in the mountains.


A comfortable, uniquely styled parka for cold conditions

We test for durability: resistance to rubbing and abrasion, colourfastness, and resistance to repeated washing. All these tests have been conducted on the jacket material.

Will my parka withstand long-term regular use?

Water repellency is a fabric’s capacity to make water run off its surface without being absorbed. It prevents the fabric from soaking up water, keeping it lightweight, warm, and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. The garment should be retreated over its lifespan (recommended after each wash). Products for this purpose (spray or liquid) are available in our stores.

How to preserve the technical qualities of the jacket

Whatever your cold weather activity, use the three-layer technique:
Layer 1: A high-tech base layer to wick moisture away from the body and keep your skin dry.
Layer 2: A fleece or sweater to provide warmth and transfer moisture outward.
Layer 3: A parka to protect against the elements (rain, snow, and wind). 
To eliminate moisture, the whole outfit must be breathable.

Skill Level

Our products are classified based on performance and features for 3 mountain-walking levels:
- Occasional: about 10 hikes per year of about 3 to 4 hours in length, covering less than 10 km and less than 700 m in elevation gain.
- Regular: about 20 outings per year. 4 to 6 hours, 10 to 20 km, 700 to 1,200 m of elevation gain per outing.
- Intensive: more than 20 times a year. More than 6 hours, more than 20 km, 1,200 to 2,000 m of elevation gain per outing.

How often do you hike and at what intensity?

The boots’ cuff lining fabric and inner sole coating were thread-dyed during manufacturing to reduce environmental impact. Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces wastewater from the dye baths. We use a bulk dyeing process that involves adding the colour pigments when the yarn itself is produced to reduce the environmental impact.


Sustainable development information

Certified sole grip. 
To be certified, the boots must pass lab tests to assess their grip rate on different surfaces (smooth, rough, dry, wet). To validate tests, testers evaluated quality of soles in the fields and mountains over 500 km.

Grippy sole

In a lab, the shoe is immersed in water to mid height while on a mechanical arm that simulates walking. We use this test to determine how long and how far the shoe can walk and still stay dry.
This is validated in the field and in the rain to ensure a consistent result in use.

Waterproofing test

To keep feet dry, use a waterproof gaiter or mini-gaiter to protect the top of boots and to prevent water, pebbles, and sand from getting in.

Re-waterproof boots twice a year using a re-waterproofing agent (search for ‘waterproofing’ on our Decathlon website) which helps to restore original water-repellent qualities and to prevent stains on the outside.
