- Forest trails

The waterproof Weathertite upper ensures they perform effectively in damp conditions, making them ideal for British weather and general outdoor use.
Product Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Karrimor Skiddaw Walking Boots.
- Cleaning: After use, remove any loose dirt or mud by wiping the boots clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used.
- Drying: Always allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and waterproof membrane.
- Important: Do not machine wash your Karrimor Skiddaw Walking Boots. Machine washing can compromise the waterproofing and structural integrity of the boots.
