Not ideal for serious winter walking

This new Hillmaster model features an improved men’s specific fit (a women’s specific fit is also available) and as is customary with these well-established boots they’re pretty much comfy straight out of the box.

Similar to the Anatom Q3 in both appearance and intended use, the Hillmaster utilises lovely 2.2 – 2.4mm full grain leather uppers combined with a memory foam collar and tongue and a Gore-Tex lining.  The cuffs are quite low but give adequate support and your heels feel well locked in place.

A ten-point series of improvements/redesigns has among other things seen the incorporation of a new, grippy, well-cushioned and quite aggressively lugged outsole which should see out several seasons of hard use; that said, and as with the Q3, this is not a boot for serious winter days in the mountains, but if you’re more about hill and valley walking then they’re worth checking out.
