Benefit of the self-locking hook
With this material, you can separate the upper and lower lacingThis allows you to adjust the lacing to the shape of your foot and give your ankle as much freedom as you like. To separate the upper lacing from the lower part, make a simple knot level with your instep or use your shoes’ self-locking hook.All of our trekking shoes have this feature.
How waterproof are these boots?
This boot has been validated by a waterproofing test at 10,000 repeatable flexes, i.e. 10 km - 3 hours of walking, in water up to the mid-upper, which today guarantees a very good level of waterproofing for your boots.--> Our assessment indicates a LEVEL OF 2/5 giving 3 hours of waterproofing when hiking in the rain.The details of tests carried out to assess the waterproofing of our boots is below.
Waterproofing test
Footwear waterproofing test: tested in the laboratory and genuine usage conditions, equipped with waterproof and breathable layer, to offer excellent protection from the rain. Our Field Test Missions team up the product manager with people who aren't affiliated with QUECHUA, to test, improve, and validate our products. Next, shoes are fitted to a mechanical arm that simulates walking and half immersed in water so we can test that the inside remains perfectly dry.
3 levels of waterproofing
During the waterproofness test, we test 5 levels of waterproofness: 2,000 flexes (approximately 4 km , 30 minutes of walking) 10,000 flexes (approximately 10 km , 3 hours of walking) 30,000 flexes (approximately 15 km , 6 hours of walking) 50,000 flexes (approximately 20 km , 8 hours of walking)100,000 flexes (approximately >20 km , 24 hours of walking)
Lab tests
Laboratory tests were conducted to test the following elements:- tearing of the eyelets and straps- bonding of the sole- toxicology- UV resistance- abrasion of the sole and components of the upper- accelerated ageing.
Buying tips
Try on both shoes, standing up, with the socks worn for hiking. Try on several models or sizes if necessary. Check two comfort points: the base of the heel and the front part of the foot going down. Avoid all pressure points when trying them on. Don't hesitate to walk around the store. Gradually start using you shoes during your first few hiking trips to break them in.
Manufacturing
The Trekking 100 boots are made in the European Union, in Romania.Most materials are of European origin.

This is the second pair I have bought
These boots are great for the price. I've used them to trek/scramble on the UK highest peaks (Three peaks challenge, lake district/snowdonia scrambles, etc), and long trekking sessions. They're comfy, they're warm enough, they're waterproof enough. Never had a single issue with the water. Neither on torrential rain, crossing low rivers and almost completely submerging the boot, or getting ankle deep in mud. The socks always stayed dry inside. Go home, brush them with soap and rinse them with water... and that is all! No re-treatment needed. The downside on this boot is the grip. It is ok on good conditions. But, I keep sliding when walking on wet downhills. My latest trip on wet mud/stones/grass through Snowdonia ended with a couple silly falls due to the boot sliding. I am going to retire these boots from the mountains treks where the grip is more essential but keep them for offroad hikes/walks. Overall they're great value!
I walk 20 to 30 miles every week (all weathers), and purchased all of the brand name boots over the years, none compare to these boots. This is my second pair and I hope Decathlon continue to stock them. GREAT!
