Boot Walkabout Wic Men Michelin

Walkabout with its thought-out details is the perfect all-round shoe that should work in autumn, winter and spring. It has a slightly higher shaft that keeps snow and slush away. It is stable and comfortable and has a wide fitting – all to allow you to walk as far as you want. The BOA lacing also ensures that the shoes are easy to put on and take off.

The sole is just like an unstudded winter tyre and has been designed in cooperation with the giant tyre maker Michelin. It provides the world’s best unstudded grip, perfect if you live in a place where the ground is not always icy!

For what: Hiking in autumn, spring and winter

Why we made the shoe: Because there was a need for a hiking shoe with unstudded grip for three seasons.

Michelin Winter Compound

Winter rubber traction For shifting autumn and winter conditions, ranging from wet city pavements to frosty gravel roads, providing proper unstudded traction can be a challenge. Especially since rubber tends to harden and get stiff as temperature drops. In a collaboration with MICHELIN Technical Soles, Icebug now offers a winter adapted rubber outsole. Developed with the ICE Control Technology, solution formulated to provide superior ground control in snow or ice. This technology allows you to relax and enjoy being outside, no matter how slippery it is. There is no better unstudded winter traction. The tread pattern of the outsole is based on the legendary MICHELIN X-Ice Xi3 winter tire, with Cross Z Sipes that provide traction on ice and wide grooves for excellent water evacuation and flexibility. The MICHELIN Winter Compound (Wic) is an anti-slip compound that offers both reliable traction and good abrasion resistance in temperatures down to -30°C.
