Karrimor Mount Mid Walking Boots - Brown - Size 7

The Karrimor Mount Walking Boots are waterproof and offer good traction, making them suitable for mild winter conditions and light snow. However, they are not insulated, so for very cold temperatures or deep snow, you might need specific winter boots with added insulation.

Weathertite refers to Karrimor's membrane technology. It means the boots are designed to prevent water from entering from the outside (waterproof) while allowing moisture vapor (perspiration) from your feet to escape (breathable), keeping your feet dry and comfortable.

Always try on boots with the type of socks you plan to wear. There should be enough room to wiggle your toes, but your heel should feel secure with minimal lift. The boots should feel snug around the midfoot, but not tight. Remember to break them in with shorter walks.

No, these are walking boots designed for stability and support during hiking and walking. They are not engineered for the impact and flexibility required for running and using them for running could lead to discomfort or injury.

The Frame flex chassis is an internal support system within the sole unit. It provides stability, protects your foot from sharp objects, and helps prevent excessive twisting (torsional rigidity) on uneven terrain, reducing foot fatigue over long distances.

The frequency depends on how often you use them and the conditions. As a general guide, reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment every few months of regular use, or whenever you notice water no longer beads on the surface and the material starts to 'wet out'.

Check for visible damage to the upper material or seams. Ensure the boots are clean and the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment on the outer surface is not worn off; reapply a suitable waterproofing spray if needed. Also, make sure water isn't entering from the top (e.g., over the ankle in deep puddles or rain, requiring gaiters).

Ensure you've properly broken in the boots with shorter walks. Check your sock choice; opt for moisture-wicking hiking socks, not cotton. Experiment with lacing techniques to find a comfortable balance between snugness and flexibility. If discomfort persists, consider if the size/fit is truly appropriate for your foot shape.

Clean the Dynagrip outsole thoroughly to remove any caked-on mud or debris that might be reducing grip. Inspect the tread for excessive wear, which can reduce effectiveness. While rugged, remember no sole can provide perfect traction on all extremely slippery surfaces like wet, mossy rocks or ice; adjust your walking style accordingly.

Verify you are wearing breathable, moisture-wicking socks appropriate for the temperature. Ensure the mesh panels are not blocked or excessively dirty. While breathable, during very high activity or hot weather, some moisture build-up is normal.
