Article description – “HAIX Scout” As the name suggests, the HAIX Scout is a trekking boot which is aimed at anyone who is involved in exploring the great outdoors – hunters, soldiers and, of course, scouts. It is suitable for professional or leisure use in any terrain. A rubber Vibram sole ensures slip resistance on stony ground, icy roads or the muddy forest floor. This is a particularly robust and hard-wearing boot which extends beyond the ankle up to a height of 17 centimetres. This protects the joints and avoids the danger of twists and strains in the woods or mountains. Like walking on cotton wool Hiking tours and mountain trips are usually of several hours’ duration. HAIX knows the importance of a boot in which you can walk comfortably. The Scout features an integrated PU foam layer to cushion your steps. Its tread also facilitates optimum toe-to-heel movement. This is also a boot which is extremely quick to put on. The laces are fastened with a plastic clip rather than by making a knot and a bow and are then stored away in a practical side pocket.  This means that they cannot catch on any branches or on any other objects that may be lying around. The ideal boots for the hunting season Hunting enthusiasts mainly pursue their hobby during the autumn and winter season. The boots they wear need to contend with significant amounts of rain and mud. The HAIX Scout offers outstanding insulation against the cold and wet. A three-ply GORE-TEX membrane prevents water from penetrating into the boot. This keeps your feet dry at all times.   Upper material The HAIX Scout is manufactured in hydrophobised nubuk leather. This is a material which is water repellent, highly breathable and particularly robust. Rubber elements are added to the toe and heel sections to help prevent wear and tear. A practical two-zone lacing system enables you to achieve different tightness levels in the foot and calf areas to ensure a perfect individual fit
