I bought a second pair of these shoes; I wore the first (black) pair for several years. They are very comfortable and genuinely waterproof – I have often stepped into puddles or mud and the shoes stayed dry. For trekking shoes, they are quite light. The sole performs excellently during long hikes on flat terrain, which is also how I use them. Since the sole is softer than in other shoes of this type, it is not the best for rocky terrain. I find the breathability sufficient, which is a compromise due to their waterproofness. They don’t look like classic trekking shoes, so they work well for everyday use too. I’m deducting one star for the lacing solution – the laces only go through four eyelets instead of five as usual, making the shoe flex more when walking, particularly around the 'Hi-Tec' logo. My old pair wore through at this spot, but I still wear them, which is why I bought a new pair as well. Overall, for this price, they're really solid and highly recommendable footwear.
Hi-Tec Benard WP Boots - Khaki
Lightweight trekking boots equipped with a breathable and waterproof membrane, proving themselves as versatile footwear for both city and off-road. Thanks to their design, they match both hiking clothes and classic jeans.
Upper made of robust material
The upper of the shoe is made of a durable material that wicks moisture effectively to the outside. The interior is lined with abrasion-resistant mesh material and polyurethane (PU) for increased comfort.
EVA foam insole, cushioning areas
An anatomically shaped EVA foam insole ensures natural foot positioning. Special cushioned zones minimise shock, protecting the foot when moving over uneven terrain.
Eva Phylon sole with deep tread
Stability on the ground is guaranteed by the Eva Phylon sole with deep tread, providing excellent grip on a variety of surfaces. Reinforcements in the toe and heel area increase durability and resistance to damage.

MILITARY is a premium dealer of Hi-Tec.
Hi-Tec is a British brand of sports and outdoor footwear, which began with lightweight squash shoes and developed based on innovative functional solutions. The Sierra Sneaker model proved to be a breakthrough - recognized as the first sports trekking footwear - which set the direction in the hybrid outdoor and urban footwear segment. In 1981, Hi-Tec gained widespread recognition in the UK with the Silver Shadow model, worn by 23% of London Marathon participants. The brand introduced groundbreaking technologies such as the AirBall Concept cushioning system and ultra-lightweight V-LITE solutions, combining comfort with durability. One of the symbolic moments in the company's history was 1990, when Nelson Mandela left prison wearing Hi-Tec ACE shoes. Today, with nearly 50 years of experience, Hi-Tec remains one of the leaders in the outdoor crossover segment, integrating modern technologies with urban lifestyle. Contemporary collections, such as HTS74, are a reinterpretation of iconic models in a modern edition, reflecting the brand's heritage in a fresh, stylish context.

I successfully use this model as everyday work shoes. They are comfortable, breathable, and the sole works well even on slippery surfaces. I sincerely recommend them.
