These shoes can be made of leather, nylon cloth, or a mixture, and some also have Gore-Tex waterproof breathable fabric. The design enhances its robustness and durability. The sole also adopts a design with better traction, and some are reinforced at the heel to protect the user's ankle. Therefore, its weight is generally heavier than that of light climbing shoes. In addition to shoes made of all leather, they do not have too much adaptability problems, but most of these shoes cannot be used with ice claws in snow.

Heavy duty hiking shoes
The material of these hiking shoes is roughly the same as that of ordinary hiking shoes, but their foot protection and sole design are enhanced to cope with more complex and difficult mountaineering activities. Generally, its soles are thicker and harder, and some even have steel plates added, which increases its weight. Special attention is also paid to waterproof treatment to keep your feet dry during activities. However, this type of shoes must be adapted before use, otherwise rashly putting on new shoes and going up the mountain will cause you considerable pain due to hard shoes and non flexible soles.
Double boot
This type of shoe is specially designed for polar climbing, and as the name suggests, it is composed of two layers of shoes, one inside and the other outside. This kind of shoe is not only strong and heavy, but also expensive, but it is a sharp tool for polar climbing. It is composed of an outer boot made of plastic and an inner boot made of thermal insulation material. It combines the functions of preventing snow water from penetrating and keeping warm, so that your feet will not freeze in the harsh ice and snow

Military mountaineering shoes
The shoes are made of special materials and special processes. The upper material is made of leather cloth, and the thermal insulation material is made of down felt. The shoe lining is compounded with an elastic PTFE film, and the shoe forming process is a molding process.

Excellent comprehensive performance:
Windproof and warm
The thermal insulation material is made of independently developed down felt using natural down resources, which overcomes the shortcomings of the previous down felt that is bulky and prone to burrowing, and has excellent thermal insulation. Compared to wool felt, it has better thermal insulation, requiring only 1/3 of the weight of wool felt under the same thermal insulation amount. The thickness is only about 2/3 of that of wool felt. Due to the composite layer in the shoe, PTFE film is used. It has a good windproof effect and can resist the invasion of cold even in windy weather, so its warmth retention will not be significantly reduced in such weather.

Waterproof and moisture permeable:
The elastic PTFE film used in this shoe is a similar product to the PTFE film of GORE Company. It uses special processing methods to make countless micropores. The diameter of these micropores is far smaller than the minimum water droplets and larger than the gas molecules. Therefore, it can prevent water from seeping into the shoe from the outside while emitting the generated sweat, keeping the feet dry and dry.
Antibacterial and deodorant resistant, shoe lining cloth and insole surface cloth have undergone antibacterial treatment.
The special outsole pattern design provides excellent skid resistance in both the front and rear directions, as well as in the left and right directions. Even on icy roads, it's not easy to fall and won't get caught in mud.
