About this deal

Berghaus have upgraded the lightweight comfort with a streamlined, one-piece construction in soft but strong leather that resists water, laughs off abrasions and helps prevent blisters. This all means long lasting comfort and support for those hill walking adventures. Overall, most users are impressed with the Berghaus walking boots and are happy to wear this quite often. This excellent all round walking boot is lightweight and comfortable, and the new design makes it even kinder on the eye. Benefit: Protects from rain, wind and snow and can provide additional warmth especially when combined with the other layers. The clue’s in the name – the Supalite II GTX are one of the lightest weight high-performance leather hikers available

Cushioned soles and super grip OPTI-STUD® technology means you can confidently stride out, while feet stay dry thanks to the waterproof GORE-TEX® Extended Comfort membrane, offering waterproofness and enhanced breathability. Berghaus walking boots are perfect for hiking, trekking or just going on a walk, they are made from durable materials and have great grip so you will be able to enjoy the great outdoors without worrying about slipping or getting wet feet.

Waterproof your feet - banish muddy puddles from your worry list and concentrate on the trail ahead PFOA is used as an ingredient in the production of water-proof membranes and may be present at very low, trace levels in finished products. PFOA is also formed in trace quantities as a by-product in the production of the chemicals we use as a water-proof fabric finish. Therefore, in line with most high performance water-proof and water-repellent garments, there is a theoretical chance of PFOA being detected at very low, trace levels on our products. While others in the Berghaus range received quite a few negative comments surrounding the waterproof design, this model did not get as many. Yes, some customers still said that they had issues with water leaking, but they were in the minority. There are many different tests for breathability of a fabric. Several test methods will give results in g/m²/24hours whereas RET, which is the standard test used by Gore-Tex, gives results in m²Pa/W. Unfortunately none of these tests correlate with each other and in fact different fabrics types appear to perform better on different tests so they are not interchangeable.

RET is the resistance to evaporative heat loss meaning the lower the number the more breathable a fabric is. During the test a fabric is placed on a ‘sweating guarded hot plate’ (a porous hot plate with water channelled through it) and the required energy to keep this plate at a constant temperature is measured in m²Pa/W (area[m²] Pressure[Pa] / energy[W]) Berghaus walking boots are renowned for offering fantastic protection and support. The full range of robust Berghaus Boots offer walkers both comfort and reliability

Price Match Promise

From Helvellyn to the Himalyas, Berghaus has an amazing ability to tap into that feeling of joy and discovery in the outdoors. Even in the driving hail, it’s where we all feel at home. This is the feeling behind Berghaus. From the first shop in the North East of England, Berghaus have come a long way. In 50 years, they’ve used their experience to design, test and develop well thought out kit that’s built to last. Loved worldwide, Berghaus know that the difference between enjoying the outdoors and truly loving it is all down to one simple thing. Ideal Berghaus kit. When stopping in the outdoors after a strenuous uphill section, the continued cooling effect on the skin through sweat evaporating and conducted heat loss, will cause excessive cooling and resulting in discomfort. Now suppose that an exposed ridge has been reached and the cold biting wind adds to the cooling effect and suddenly we have a dangerous situation. Moving the sweat off the skin does not stop the cooling effect. Excessive heat will still evaporate the sweat but on the surface of the base layer not the skin. Heat loss through conduction (water/sweat) is a very good conductor of heat) is reduced considerably though, as the sweat is only on the skin for a short time. LONG LASTING COMFORT Enjoy all day comfort and cushioning from the midsole construction and OrthoLite Hike footbed.

As always, out of the box comfort is top of our list, and with the classic Explorer fit and cushioned OrthoLite® There is also the use of full grain leather, gore-tex and sheepskin for protection and comfort. Users are impressed with the support offered with this shoe. The strong leather around the top of the foot and ankle means that it is more difficult to turn an ankle.Plus, breathable mesh panels are a breath of fresh air and OrthoLite® footbeds provide a comfortable cushioned fit CUSHIONED Be kind to your feet with underfoot cushioning from EVA midsoles and the OrthoLite® footbed.
