Trekking/Hiking Shoes

Not sure which boot? We’ll shortlist the right AKU for your terrain and fit.Find your boot

AKU Trekking/Hiking Shoes are built for long days on mixed UK terrain—wet grass, muddy paths, stone tracks and steep, uneven ground—where comfort, stability and reliable traction matter more than chasing the lightest possible weight. This segment is developed around comfortable, enveloping anatomical lasts to support a natural, dynamic walking action over distance. Many models use Vibram® outsoles for dependable grip, with waterproof options using Gore-Tex® (model-dependent). Selected models also integrate underfoot support systems (such as IMS where specified) to improve comfort under load and on uneven trails.

What to expect
Comfort-led fit for distance: anatomical lasts designed to support natural foot movement across long walks and multi-day mileage.
Stable support on uneven ground (where specified): selected models use IMS – Internal Midsole System for a more secure, controlled underfoot platform (model-dependent).
Traction tuned to intended use: many models use Vibram® outsoles (compound and tread are model-dependent).
Waterproof/breathable options: selected models use Gore-Tex® membranes (model-dependent).
High-breathability options (where specified): some mountain-focused models use AIR8000® for enhanced airflow through the upper (model-dependent).
How to choose
1) Match the terrain: choose trekking/hiking shoes for mixed trails, uneven ground and regular mileage where stability and comfort matter most.
2) Consider load and distance: for longer days or heavier packs, look for supportive underfoot systems such as IMS where specified (model-dependent).
3) Decide on waterproofing: for frequent rain and saturated ground, pick Gore-Tex® where specified (model-dependent).
4) Fit for long-wear comfort: prioritise heel hold and forefoot room for descents; use Fit Guidance & Lasts and the Size Guide if you are between sizes.
