During winter hikes in the cold and snow, shoes are an essential companion for walking warm and dry.

When temperatures drop it is very important to have footwear that has the right balance between waterproofness and breathability. AKU ® winter shoes are designed to ensure comfort, safety and thermal insulation both on simple excursions in the snow and in the most extreme conditions.

Choose the right shoe for snow and cold depending on the type of activity you will be doing this winter: trekking, hiking, snowshoeing or après-ski.

AKU® has developed various models to meet all these needs by combining technicality and comfort as well as developing a unique design for those who want practicality and style:

The Italian outdoor magazine The Pill conducts a series of tests every year on winter and snow shoes.

This year the product chosen by the editors after various comparisons and tests was AKU Trekker Therm200 GTX .

"A mountain boot that satisfies the most versatile hiker. We found the Trekker Therm200 light and comfortable from the first use. It is a shoe designed for autumn and winter trekking, which responds better to use on mixed terrain rather than only snow. Designed to be used with snowshoes.

WE LIKE The elastic Velcro closure, the featherweight and the feeling of protection from the ankle to the tip of the foot."
