Women's hiking boots come in different variants. From supple and light to sturdy and somewhat heavier.
Hiking boots are divided into categories, which represent certain types of shoes and types of hikes. Below is a brief explanation of the different types and features.
Characteristics category A
The shoes in category A are light and all-round hiking boots and casual shoes for flat terrain, such as forests and asphalt.
Characteristics category B
The shoes in the B category are so-called trekking shoes. The sole of this B-shoe is stiffer than the previous category. Suitable for mountain hikes with a light pack. They provide sufficient support and protect the ankles.
Characteristics category C
Category C includes shoes that are used for trekking through fairly rough terrain, for which the soles of previous categories no longer suffice. The biggest difference with the previous category is, in addition to the much stiffer sole, also the stiffer upper. Ideal for mountain tours at higher altitudes.
Characteristics category D
Heavy crampon-resistant shoes with a stiff sole. Specially made for heavier climbing in high-alpine terrain and for ice climbing. We do not sell this type. This is too heavy for normal (mountain) hiking.
