Built for British Trails

The Hi-Tec Ravine is a rugged mens walking boot designed for hikers, ramblers and Duke of Edinburgh’s Award expeditions. Its full grain nubuck leather upper shrugs off the knocks, mud and abrasion of real trail use, while the classic brown finish looks the part on hill, moor and woodland alike.

Dry Feet, Every Step

Wet feet ruin a good walk. The Ravine tackles that with a two-stage defence: an I-Shield durable water repellent coating on the leather and an internal Dri-Tec waterproof, breathable membrane. Rain and puddles stay out, while a moisture-wicking lining moves sweat away so your feet stay dry from both directions.

Grip and Comfort All Day

A high quality rubber outsole with deep, multi-directional lugs delivers confident traction on loose, wet and uneven ground. Inside, an EVA cushioned midsole with a nylon stiffening insert supports your arch and absorbs shock, while the padded foam collar cushions your ankle over long distances.

European Craftsmanship

Made in Europe with an Italian-influenced design, the Ravine pairs traditional boot construction with modern materials. It is a dependable, keenly priced choice for weekend walkers and expedition students who need a boot that simply works. Browse more outdoor clothing and footwear to complete your kit.

Frequently asked questions

Are the Hi-Tec Ravine boots fully waterproof?

Yes. The Ravine uses a two-stage system: an I-Shield water repellent coating on the nubuck upper plus an internal Dri-Tec waterproof, breathable membrane, so rain stays out while sweat vapour escapes.

Are these boots suitable for the Duke of Edinburgh's Award?

Yes. The Ravine is recommended for DofE expeditions thanks to its waterproofing, ankle support and grippy outsole, making it a popular choice for students and leaders alike.

Do the Ravine boots need breaking in?

The nubuck upper is fairly supple from new, but as with any leather boot we suggest wearing them on a few shorter walks before a long expedition to let them mould to your feet.

How should I care for the nubuck leather?

Brush off dried mud, then treat the nubuck with a suitable spray protector to maintain water repellency. Avoid soaking them or drying them directly on a radiator, which can crack the leather.

Are these boots true to size?

Most customers find the Ravine true to their usual size. If you plan to wear thick walking socks or use a thicker insole, consider sizing up half a size for comfort.
