Famous footwear maker, Hunter, have added a brand new shooting boot to their range - the Balmoral, a high spec, high performance technical welly that reaffirms their position and importance in the market.
Hunter listened to what Countryside Alliance members wanted in a welly and this is the outcome.
Hunter have lined this one with bamboo carbon, a highly porous material that wicks away moisture and acts as a net to trap odours where they are then decomposed.
The carbon has been added to the polymer so it is part of the fabric and can't be worn or washed away.
But there's lots more to the Balmoral than that - painstaking attention has been paid to detail to make this footwear the ultimate in comfort.
Some of its many features include:
- A high energy absorbing heel pad to protect the back, knee and joints from heel impact shock.
- A highly resilient pad in the ball of the foot to return energy and keep a spring in your step.
- Built-in boot jack at the back of the heel to make removal easier.
- Fit adjuster insoles.
All I can say is it's likely to prove a winner!
You might like to know that a neoprene lined version is also available at a cost of £90.
