BERGHAUS SUPALITE II GTX £155

A one-piece leather construction with minimal stitching and a Gore-Tex liner ensure the Supalite II is very waterproof, but without the rigidity of a heavy leather boot. Instead it’s light and comfortable, thanks to the soft, supple leather and the ankle cuff’s memory foam padding. Underfoot you get a Vibram sole unit with deep, well-spaced lugs for excellent grip.

VERDICT A lightweight full-leather boot that hits the sweet spot between weight and reliability – and all at a competitive price.
