The Zamberlan Vioz GTX is a premium, high-performance hiking shoe engineered for women who tackle demanding treks and long-distance backpacking with heavy packs. It provides the perfect balance of ankle support, waterproof protection via GORE-TEX lining, and reliable traction on varied terrain, though its robust leather construction requires a break-in period to reach maximum comfort.

While they are comfortable, they are specifically engineered for trekking and backpacking. Their stiff sole and weight make them overkill for casual city walking.
Keep the inside free of grit by shaking out sand after hikes. If necessary, use a damp cloth and mild soap to wipe the interior; avoid submerging the boots entirely.
We recommend high-quality wool or synthetic hiking socks to manage moisture and prevent friction.
The Vioz GTX is designed for the female foot. Ensure you have about a thumb's width of space at the toe to allow for foot swelling during long hikes.
Zamberlan boots are known for high-quality craftsmanship, and the durable construction typically allows for professional resoling when the outsole eventually wears down.
Full-grain leather requires a break-in period. Wear the shoes on shorter hikes or around the house with your preferred hiking socks to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.
Clean the outer leather and re-apply a high-quality leather-specific waterproofing treatment to refresh the Hydrobloc barrier.
To ensure the longevity of your Vioz GTX shoes, proper care is essential. After hiking in mud or debris, remove the insoles and clean the outsoles with water and a soft brush. Periodically treat the full-grain leather upper with a leather conditioner compatible with Hydrobloc technology to maintain its water-repellent properties. Avoid drying the shoes near direct heat sources, such as campfires or radiators, as this can cause the leather to crack and the adhesive to degrade. Always store them in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area.
