AKU Men's Pilgrim GTX Combat Fg M Boat Shoe

Product Information

The boots felt really good on my feet straight and this is no doubt due to the IMS system and the amazing insoles.

Alex, a lesser known member of the KitPest Team, is Mr Networking… At one of his many prosecco fuelled events he recently met the very nice peeps from AKU’s PR company. It is worth noting that in natural light these boots are a much darker brown than they appear in photographs online.These boots are incredibly light weight and form fitting, definitely worth using if prone to blisters as I have had no issues unlike previous use with altbergs and hiax combat boots. billion microscopic pores per square centimetre that are about 20,000 times smaller than a drop of water. Normally midsoles are flat and offer no support to the foot, only dictating the stiffness of the boot. Gore-Tex® Performance Comfort: Offers moderate insulation to keep feet dry and comfortable during outdoor activities in a variety of weather conditions.

I do have a narrow foot so it was gratifying to see that the standard width fitting was able to accommodate me comfortably. Trekitt were instrumental in getting this boot on the issue list and we are immensely proud that a boot we originally designed in partnership with AKU is now officially recognised by the MOD. In extensive UK MOD trials, the AKU Pilgrim was found by British Army personnel to be the most suitable high leg boot for lightweight patrolling and fighting on a variety of multi-terrain surfaces including rock, rubble, field and track. It was competing against other boots also in the trial and scored high with with the personnel in intensely active combat situations.

With an IMS 3D midsole, the foot is cradled in a relaxed position, therefore, reducing fatigue and minimising slippage.
