Full details
The Dry Walker X-Track Ultra Thermal Boot is designed for adults seeking robust protection and warmth in extreme cold. Its key benefit is superior thermal insulation and all-day comfort, even in freezing conditions.

FAQs
What is the temperature rating for these boots?
The boots provide a very good level of thermal insulation, with a special insert rated for temperatures down to -30°C.
Are these boots suitable for hiking in summer?
While described as all-year-round footwear, their primary design is for extreme cold. They may be excessively warm for summer hiking activities.
How do I clean the inside of the boots?
You can remove the insulating insert and wash it separately according to its care instructions. The inside of the boot can be wiped with a damp cloth.
What material are the boots made of?
The boots are made of the highest quality EVA material, known for being waterproof and very light.
Do these boots adapt to my walking style?
Yes, the design aims to provide comfort by adapting to the user's walking style.
What should I do if the boots feel stiff?
EVA material can sometimes feel stiffer in very cold temperatures. Wear them for short periods to allow them to warm up and become more flexible with body heat.
Can I machine wash these boots?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the EVA material and the insulating properties of the boot.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK shoe size. Try wearing them with different sock thicknesses. The EVA material may adapt slightly to your foot shape over time.
Feet feel cold despite the thermal insulation
Verify that the insulating insert is correctly positioned and dry. Ensure no gaps exist around the ankle area where cold air could enter. Consider wearing appropriate thermal socks.
Traction is reduced on very slick surfaces
While designed for good traction, extremely icy conditions may still pose a risk. Ensure the sole is clean. For maximum safety on sheer ice, consider adding ice cleats.
Water seeping into the boots
Inspect the boots for any visible damage to the EVA material. Ensure the rolled corduroy collar is not submerged in water. The boots are waterproof but may not be suitable for prolonged submersion.
