Harkila and Gore-Tex® Footwear

Harkila and Gore-Tex® Footwear

In all outdoor activities it’s important to have the right footwear not only for comfort, but also for the enjoyment of the activity. There are several types of boots, shoes and wellies to pick and choose from and they are all made from different materials. One of the materials used in Harkila’s footwear range is Gore-Tex®.

For those of you who haven’t yet had a chance to experience Gore-Tex®, it is a high performance membrane that provides breathability alongside waterproofing when used in garments or footwear.

The breathable Gore-Tex® membrane plays an important role in keeping your feet comfortable and dry. Similar to Harkila’s clothing range, the footwear is subject to rigorous testing, in which they test everything from the durability and flex of the water to its waterproofing and breathability. Not only are the Gore-Tex® boots put through testing in laboratories but they are also tested in the field before being put to market.

There are three kinds of Harkila Gore-Tex® boot available, each suited to a different environment and activity.

Gore-Tex® Extended Comfort Boots By Harkila
