WHICH MATERIALS ARE USED FOR HIKING BOOTS AND SHOES?

Hiking boots and shoes can be made from various materials. Naturally, each material has its own benefits where hiking boots are concerned, so it is certainly recommended to get familiar with the different kinds of materials that make up a hiking boot or shoe.

Full-grain leather - This material is recommended for rough terrain, as full-grain leather has outstanding durability and quite a level of abrasion resistance. In addition to having abrasion resistance, full-grain leather is also resistant against water, this makes boots made from full-grain leather more than suitable for hiking in rainy weather conditions.

Of course, full-grain leather does have a downside, more specifically the fact that full-grain leather is not as breathable as some of the other materials used in hiking boots. Despite this minor downside, this is undoubtedly the best material for hiking trips in harsh weather.

Split-grain leather - As the name suggests, this type of leather will separate itself from the inner leather part of the hiking boot or shoe. Therefore, some unusual material combinations are possible with split-grain leather. A lot of hiking boots may include a nylon mesh, which deliver more breathability to the boot or shoe.

Nubuck leather - Nubuck is a specific type of leather that is popular for hiking boots. The thing that sets this material apart from other types of leather is that it resembles suede. So, the perfect choice for those looking for hiking boots and want to remain trendy.

Synthetic materials - Manmade materials tend to be extremely strong and this is no different for the synthetic materials used to create hiking boots. In addition to durability, synthetic hiking boots tend to be lighter than leather shoes too. So, anyone who does not like a cumbersome shoe to walk in often looks at synthetic hiking boots to find a solution.
