Quechua NH500 Hiking Boots

Upper of: 60.0% Leather - Bovine - Full Grain, 30.0% Polyester (PES) - Recycled, 10.0% Polyurethane ; Outer sole of: 60.0% Acetate, 40.0% Ethylene Vinyl Acetate ; Lining and sock of: 100.0% Polyester (PES) - Recycled

The sole’s design is the result of long research carried out in our labs. It is composed of a specific rubber formula that optimizes grip and resistance. Since not all needs are the same, we are always looking for the best solution to develop on loose country trails such as unpaved forest paths.

Our hiking boots are designed for use on off-road trails. Indeed, we choose the components of the sole and upper of our boots and test them to ensure that they are ideally suited to hiking on loose trails (e.g. unpaved forest paths) or rocky trails (e.g. rocky coastal paths). Road use (asphalt) may lead to premature wear on your boots and cause discomfort. They are not suitable for mountain hiking.

Laboratory tests were also conducted to test the following elements: tearing eyelets and straps, gluing, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion-resistance of outsole and upper components, accelerated aging. These tests allow us to improve the quality of our products and prevent premature wear of our hiking boots.

After your hikes, we advise you to:- Leave your shoes to dry near a heat source- Brusquely brush, using a hard-bristled brush, the dry leather to remove any mud and dirt- Use a soft-bristled brush or nubuck eraser to remove any stains- If the stains are stubborn, clean them using a brush and a little warm water- Leave to dry- Brush again using a hard-bristled brush- Spray with a waterproofing product: This will make the leather shine and bring out the colors

Try on both boots, standing up and wearing the socks you use for hiking. Try on several models or sizes if necessary. Check 2 comfort points: - the heel seating- the front of the foot on a downward slopeAvoid any pressure points when fitting. Feel free to walk around the store. Gradually start using your boots during your 1st few hiking trips to break them in.

There are numerous causes of blisters when hiking: rubbing, a crease in the sock, moisture, a shoe size that is too small or too big, etc. It is therefore important to choose the right size and to have socks made of the right material for your hiking boots.

You need to choose the correct sock size for your feet to avoid any extra folds forming on the sock: These folds may form because the sock is too big and therefore there is too much material around your foot, or because the sock so small and is pulled toward the inside of your foot.

It’s in France, at the foot of Mont Blanc, that our design team conceives, designs, and creates Quechua products. We test them in the field with other hikers, to check their comfort and durability. The Forest of Fontainebleau or in Brittany, for example. We go to as many different places as possible, in all weather conditions. This creates plenty of opportunities for discussions to get your feedback, which is used to plan our future products!

We recommend you store your boots in a dry, dark, and, if possible, ventilated place.
