The NEW Kombat Boots were designed by Danny Fairbrass to replicate the high-end hiking boots he had worn before, but with the addition of some extra features to make them perfect for anglers. The Kombat Boots are designed with comfort and functionality in mind, but also look good. They have excellent waterproofing, which is essential when walking through wet grass or putting your foot in shallow water or puddles, as wet feet get cold quickly and can ruin your session. The soles are designed with grip and durability in mind, and the tread provides excellent purchase for the types of surfaces you are likely to encounter while fishing, and the tread will help prevent you from slipping. The Kombat Boots are also great for walking longer distances in, offering support without being stiff, and you’ll barely feel you have them on! Many hiking boots are difficult to get on and off quickly, but these are designed specifically with the fisherman in mind. Another problem with some hiking boots is that the laces keep coming undone, which not only means you have to stop walking every time to reattach them, but they also drag through the mud and potentially trip you up, but the Kombat Boots have a flat lace design to make sure this doesn’t happen.
