When you choose hiking boots, you're not just selecting footwear: you're choosing protection, performance, and comfort. Two essential factors you should know before buying are waterproofing and breathability, key to enjoying every hike safely.
At Oriocx Trekking, we combine innovation and experience to offer you technical trekking boots, perfect for adapting to any type of terrain and weather.

What are waterproof boots?

Waterproof hiking boots are boots with lasting waterproofing. This means they are made with materials that resist water penetration, but with prolonged use in continuous wet conditions, water will eventually seep in and wet our feet. It's true that keeping our feet dry for extended periods is a significant advantage. The lasting waterproofing of the boot or shoe is achieved with resistant outer materials such as water-repellent nubuck leather, a water-repellent inner lining, and internal membranes like Sympate, which block moisture without sacrificing comfort.

What is breathability in outdoor footwear?

Breathable hiking boots allow moisture and heat from the foot to escape. This prevents sweat buildup, blisters, and fatigue, especially on long hikes or in hot weather.

Sympate: 100% waterproof and breathable technology

Oriocx boots with SympaTex membrane offer the best of both worlds. They effectively keep water out while remaining highly breathable. Perfect for long hikes, varied terrain, and changing weather conditions.
