The Pill Editor's Choice
The Italian magazine for the outdoors The Pill every year, it carries out a series of tests on winter and snow shoes.
This year the product chosen by the editors after various comparisons and tests was AKU Trekker Therm200 GTX. "A mountain boot that satisfies the most versatile hiker. We found the Trekker Therm200 lightweight and comfortable from the first time you wear it. Designed for autumn and winter trekking, it's best suited for use on mixed terrain rather than just snow. Designed for use with snowshoes.
WE LIKE The elastic Velcro closure, the featherweight and the feeling of protection from ankle to toe."
