Winter holidays: How to equip yourself properly for walking in the snow?

Winter holidays are finally here! Whether you plan to head to the mountains to admire snowy landscapes or simply enjoy frosted trails near your home, one thing is certain: proper gear is essential for walking in the snow. A good pair of shoes makes all the difference in ensuring your comfort, safety, and above all, allowing you to fully enjoy every moment. Here are our tips for preparing your winter outings with complete peace of mind.

Why is it essential to choose the right shoes for walking in the snow?

The risks of improper equipment

Walking in the snow can quickly turn into a challenge if you’re not properly equipped! Slipping, frozen or wet feet, and even blisters are common issues that can turn a beautiful day into a real nightmare.

The essential criteria

To walk comfortably in the snow, your shoes must meet these criteria:

• Grip: Non-slip soles to stay stable on snow or ice.
• Waterproofing: Materials that prevent water from seeping in.
• Warmth: An insulated and lined interior to maintain a comfortable temperature.
  
• Comfort: A well-fitted and lightweight design for fatigue-free walking.

Taking care of your ankle boots
