Woodwalker Men's 18" 4mm Waterproof Natural Rubber Boot

The Woodwalker model stands out for its inclusive design thanks to the adjustable leg reinforcement, making it perfect even for those with more developed calves, ensuring a personalized and comfortable fit. The technological sole, derived from running shoes, ensures optimal cushioning and superior stability. The robust, sculpted tread offers excellent grip on both soft and firm surfaces, making it ideal for everyday use in the stable, for walks, and for all outdoor activities.

Gateway1 Woodwalker Men 18” 4mm: high waterproof boot in G1® 70 natural rubber, 4mm neoprene , breathable lining with air spacer, Gripper 2.0 sole and comfort up to -20°C.

Designed for stables, endurance assistance, fishing, hunting and outdoor activities (countryside, woods, mud and rain), the Gateway1 Woodwalker Men's 18'' 4mm is a high-performance boot made of vulcanized G1® 70 natural rubber: a premium material, more resistant and durable than standard rubber. The construction is 100% waterproof and designed to remain comfortable even for many hours.

Soft comfort is guaranteed by the combination of 4 mm neoprene and coil lining™, a technical lining that helps manage moisture. Additionally, the G1 air spacer promotes air circulation inside the boot, improving breathability and keeping the foot drier during active use.

Underfoot, the All-terrain gripper 2.0™ sole works, designed to offer grip on wet and soft terrain, with a ladder grip function for a more secure hold. The removable G1® Stage3™ footbed and shock-absorbing materials help reduce fatigue, while details such as a heel kicker (for easier removal of the boot) and an adjustable cuff with buckle make use even more practical. Also suitable for cold conditions, with protection up to -20°C.
