Are the soles on these Altitude VI i WP Wmn's Boot as grippy on rock as Vibram soles?

G'day Kerry,
We'd say you'd have somewhat similar performance as they are both soft compound moulded soles. These Hi-Tecs are one of our most popular boots and we have great reviews and feedback from people about their performance. Generally if a shoe lacks grip or is slippery in anyway, it's one of the first things to be raised by customers. Hope that helps.

Can these boots be polished?1 answer
Hi, Can these boots be polished with shoe polish when they get scratched/scuffed?
Mariska - Strathalbyn, SA (1 year ago)
G'day Mariska,
There's a DWR (durable water repellant chemical treatment) which is on the outside of the leather, so polishing would get rid of that. But, polishing wouldn't affect the waterproof membrane that is built into the boot.
Hope that helps.

Are they suitable for hot weather 1 answer
Wearing mostly in warm to hot climates

G'day Colleen,
Given that the Hi-Tec Altitude VI i WP Women's Boot is both leather and waterproof, it is definitely one of the warmer boots we stock. It all comes down to whether or not you can stand the heat. Some people don't like hot feet at all but others can handle it quite well. If you were wanting something a little cooler, I'd suggest looking at a boot that isn't made of leather.

are these suitable to wear with orthotics
jenny Bentley - Bright(6 years ago)
G'day Jenny,
Provided that your orthotics are a full size, not the half size, then you'll be able to take the inner sole out and slide your orthotic in.
