Halti - Gompa Drymaxx Hiking Shoes - Walking boots tested

Good price/performance

In the past 2 months I have used this hiking shoes intensively for different summer outdoor activities in the mountains and I'm happy with their waterproof capabilities. The material looks maybe too thin, but it passed the abrasion test so far.

On the other side, I find the sole too soft for more technical approaches when hiking. Then the laces need an extra hitch to not get undone by itself.


L.E.: 6 months later of almost daily wear, the boots are not for good use anymore. The part where the leather joins gets ripped off in the area of the big toe, because of too much bend (and maybe no support for it). This happened for the both boots, not just one.
My conclusion is that the sewing was not done properly and the boots wear out prematurely.
