Karrimor Mens Mount Mid Suede Boots Lace Up Breathable Waterproof

Product Information

The padding is not as good as that of my previous bag and the pull-out waterproof cover let the rain through right from the start. I have to safeguard my computer by placing it in a carrier bag. The top handle started coming away at the seams after only a few months. I’ll never buy anything made by Port Designs ever again. Like Karrimor, the company (it’s French) is now using factories in China. Unfortunately, a lot of (once good) brands seem to be going downhill. Too many companies these days appear to want to cut their production costs to increase their profits. My boots have pounded the pavement in the City of Durham. I wore them during a hiking trip in the Spanish mountains and they were on my feet while I walked through the streets of Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Düsseldorf. They traipsed through Dutch countryside and strolled along Portuguese beaches. They were the best pair of boots I ever had. I only threw them away after the soles became so thin their further use was impractical. Bearing in mind the lifespan of most of my footwear, I was truly amazed they lasted so long. Why I Chose Karrimor Hiking Boots Over Other Brands I have used more brands of work and hiking boot that most people. In my life a 5 mile walk is more common than 5 minutes to the shop. You are wrong when you say all walking boots are made in China or Vietnam. There are plenty of brands made in other countries of the world.

The Karrimor Bodmin Low 4 Weathertite Walking Boots are perfect for all seasons/weather because due to their waterproof and breathable lining (Weathertite™ lining) Thanks for sharing your experience in such detail. It’s truly a shame that this has happened to what was once such a good UK brand.

I’m not writing this Karrimor hiking boots review after only a few weeks or months of use. It’s not a first impression. It’s my honest opinion after putting my boots through their paces for around two-and-a-half years. I had my Karrimor hiking boots for a long time and I worked them hard in six different countries. Karrimor Walking boots typically feature waterproof and breathable membranes, durable leather and fabric uppers, high-traction soles, and cushioned midsoles for added support and comfort. They may also have gusseted tongues and padded collars to help keep debris out and provide a snug fit. Some models may also have advanced features such as multi-density footbeds and energy-returning heel inserts. Update: If you scroll down to the comments section, you will see the Karrimor brand appears to have gone downhill. I no longer recommend the company’s boots and would never consider buying any other Karrimor products. I’ve gone through almost every good quality brand of boots or hiking shoes in under 6 months. The one brand I have never owned in Magnum Footwear. They are very expensive. Based on what people are saying, on this blog and elsewhere, I won’t be buying any boots that bear the Karrimor name.Sole Technology – Vibram (Vibram Sole – has been engineered aiming for top performance, durability and traction, together with maximum levels of comfort and quality over time.)
