TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Protection from the sand
This boot features a built-in gaiter which prevents sand from getting inside. For better protection against sand, we recommend pairing this boot with the Desert 900 trousers.
Depending on the terrain, what type of boot would you recommend?
We designed this boot for sandy deserts (e.g. the erg in the Sahara). Indeed, the sole is very flexible, allowing your foot to roll through properly, which is ideal for walking on sand dunes. If you are trekking on hard rocky ground (for example the Erg of the Sahara), then we would recommend mountain trekking boots instead.
Why is it more breathable?
In the desert, there is no need for waterproof boots! However, most boots are waterproof thanks to a membrane that keeps the water out. Given that the desert boot doesn't have a membrane, it is naturally more breathable.
How to choose the size of your desert boot
In the desert, the feet tend to swell. So, do not hesitate to take one size up from your usual size to ensure a comfortable trek.

Restrictions on use
