Where are our hiking boots made?

MT 100 Hiking Boots are manufactured in a factory in Romania that specializes in making hiking boots.

Recommended use

These boots are designed for hiking on generally low altitude trails and on easier marked trails.

Self-locking hook

It effectively makes it possible to separate the lacing of the lower part and the upper part. This allows the lacing to be properly adjusted to the shape of your foot and support your ankle. To separate the upper lacing from the lower part, make a simple knot level with your instep or use the self-locking hook. All our hiking boots have the option of separate lacing.

Waterproof level

This boot has been tested and validated for 10,000 flexes, equivalent to a 15 km (9.3 mile) walk, in water reaching the mid-upper. This guarantees a good level of waterproofing. Our assessment indicates a level of 3/5, or 6 hours of waterproofing when hiking in the rain. The details of our boots’ waterproof assessment tests are below.

Increase your boots’ waterproofing with gaiters

Waterproofing on boots is often compromised when water seeps in at the collar. To keep your feet dry for longer, we recommend wearing waterproof gaiters or mini-gaiters to keep water, pebbles, and sand out. Trek 500 Hiking Gaiters (ref: 8802162)

Choosing your size is important.

For hiking, opt for one size larger for optimal comfort on the descent and to prevent toes from touching the tip of the shoe. Tip: keep your toenails short and check that your lacing prevents your foot from sliding forward inside the boot before heading downhill.

5 levels of waterproofing

Our boots are laboratory tested by 2 consecutive tests. Test 1: We test the effectiveness of the membrane immersed in water under air pressure. We simply check for any bubbles on the surface like a pierced air chamber. Test 2: We use mechanical arms to simulate walking. The assembled shoes are immersed halfway in water and flexed thousands of times to ensure that the inside remains dry and is therefore waterproof.
