My Choice, My boots, My Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof

For the last month I have had the pleasure to “test drive” a pair of  Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof Boots. With 2 dogs which we walk at least twice a day a good pair of walking shoes or boots is a must. My first impression of the boots was very positive and after using them for a while now my opinion has not changed. I am very happy with the choice I made regarding this model.

Features of Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof Boots:

  • Waterproof suede leather and high performance mesh uppers 02
  • Waterproof bootie construction
  • Ghilly and rust proof hardwear lacing system
  • Moisture-wicking lining keeps the foot dry
  • Bespoke Italian designed webbing, gives a sophisticated edge
  • Ortholite sockliner
  • Vibram rubber outsole
  • Harmony Lite Mid WP

The boots are extremely comfortable and well made. I especially liked the lacing system and the tongue, which is well padded. It allows me to fasten my boots tightly without hurting my ankles.

I have worn my Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof Boots in both dry hot weather and on cold rainy days. They performed well in both situations.

On a hot day even after a 1hour+ walk, my feet were still dry and sweat didn’t pour from them like I had expected, which can only mean that my boots have some sort of breathing capabilities, and what a wonderful capability that is.

During the wet walk my feet were lovely and dry, which is something absolutely required taking into consideration our typical English weather and seemingly endless rain fall.

I have not had a need to clean my boots as yet, but looking at them closely I believe that it shouldn’t be a problem. The Nubuck leather uppers will be easily cleared with a sponge or a small brush. I did however spray them with leather protector, just in case… I want them to stay as pretty and new looking for as long as possible 🙂

To sum it up I am very happy with my new boots. They are great looking, and present fantastic value for money, especially now as you can save £25 of the recommended retails price making them only £49.99.

If you are looking for a new walking boots check Hi-Tec boots selection for women or man and I am sure you will be able to find something you like.

Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof Boots – The First Impression

Thanks to Hi-Tec I have the opportunity to try the Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof Boots.

As you know I am a shoe junky and I think that you can never have too many shoes. I love my shoes, but not just any shoes… I pick my shoes very carefully, not just for the look but mainly for their quality and usability. I like shoes which are made from natural materials and are healthy for my feet.  I prefer to spend more and buy something which will last and perform well. I tend not to buy cheap or seasonal shoes.

I can think of nothing better for a shoe lover than receiving an email which states:

We’d love you to review some walking boots – or walking shoes if you’d prefer.

The choice wasn’t easy. I battled with myself a little between the shoes and the boots, but as I do not have a lot of confidence in the English summer I finally opted for the boots. With one choice made I was left with picking my favourite pair. After a long consideration I decided to “test drive” a pair of Hi-Tec Harmony Lite Mid Waterproof Boots.

A few days later I was surprised with a lovely parcel; surprised as I didn’t expect to receive them so soon.

My boots come well packed and secure

In reality they look much better than in the pictures and they are much lighter than expected.

Sizing was perfect. I am between a UK 5 and UK 6, I picked the UK 6 so I would have enough space for a winter socks if/when needed. With my big wool socks on the boots fit spot on… and without the big socks I have just a little bit more space to wiggle my toes, I was hoping that this would be the case.

Now, all I need is for our English weather to get back to normal. I would love to try my boots on typical, wet and muddy English day.

So stay tuned, and once the weather turns I will bring you some more news on how my boots are performing on those long walks through the mud, puddles and uneven ground.
