Brasher Kiso GTX is a men's hiking boot designed by Brasher to deliver lightweight performance. The stylish Kiso GTX is a men's hiking and walking boot made with breathable fabric that works well in the UK's hills and valleys in British weather conditions. Classically Brasher styled, Kiso GTX is tougher than an entry level walking boot but inevitably, as a fabric covered boot, you would not expect to use them for steep or rugged hiking or mountain trekking. You wouldn't consider use them with crampons, of course.
Having said that, Brasher Kiso GTX covers a popular niche market, and proves once again that when Brasher does modern, it comes across as being as no-nonsense as a sergeant major. So you can be quite certain that whilst Kiso GTX is much lighter than most hiking boots, it sacrifices nothing by way of waterproofing, essential support or even comfort.
Brasher Kiso GTX, a classic lightweight, waterproof and breathable men's fabric hiking boot, is specifically designed to deliver lightweight comfort for traversing well defined paths and trails on hills and valleys.
GORE-TEX® lined for waterproof performance and comfort, Brasher Kiso GTX is a light, breathable fabric hiking boot that delivers high performance levels on soft terrain and gradual inclines in our typical climate. Kiso GTX boot is also ideal for walks along the coast or up into the forests and lakes.
When it comes to lining, the Brasher Kiso GTX is GORE-TEX Extended Comfort Footwear and the Gore-Tex breathable fabric membrane is a real plus in the comfort stakes. The 1.6-1.8mm suede upper fabric panels and the memory foam in the collar advance that comfort level even further. GTX brings the Brasher Kiso waterproof performance on a boot that is mounted on a shock absorbing EVA midsole and a Brasher rubber sole unit.
Abundant tongue and ankle padding and a T lacing system complete the catalogue of goodies, Brasher Kiso GTX will readily take you down shallow streams and multiple puddles without leaking, but remember the slightly lower cut means the boots won't go quite as deep in water. Also the soles aren't so deeply cut as the common Vibram hiking boot soles, so the mid-step (the dip between heel and forefoot) means there's a bit less sole to dig in on steep descents.
