New hiking gear
The Latest hiking items showcase the newest shoes, jackets, bags, and walking gear as they arrive.
Lightweight, materials, and treatments: hiking gear evolves quickly from one collection to another.
Lighter Shoes
Hiking has borrowed a lot from trail running in recent years. The latest shoes lighten the uppers, replace leather with synthetic meshes and use cushioning foams from running. They are suitable for fast hiking on marked trails with a lightweight bag, where every gram saved is felt at the end of the day.
This lightness has its limits: a soft upper provides less ankle support and is less resistant to rocky terrains than a classic hiking shoe. For trips with a loaded bag, stiffer models remain essential. You can find the models in hiking shoes.
Recycled Materials and Fluor-Free Treatments
Recent collections increasingly include recycled polyesters and polyamides, made from plastic bottles, with performance equivalent to new fibres. The water-repellent treatments have also changed: France has banned clothing containing PFAS since January 1, 2026, these fluorinated compounds that have long been used to make water bead. New jackets therefore rely on fluor-free repellents, which require more regular maintenance to remain effective.
Some brands also highlight repairability, with replaceable parts or repair services. The textiles are found in men's textiles, women's textiles, and children's textiles.
Bags and Equipment
Recent backpacks lighten their structures and improve back ventilation, with stretched nets that allow air to circulate. Small equipment like headlamps, bottles, and poles become more compact. The bags are in luggage, equipment in equipment, and accessories, while trekking equipment is in trekking.
Other Hiking Entries
The deals offer previous collections at discounted prices, the clearance features end-of-line items, and the 24-hour dispatch items are prepared and shipped within 24 hours. The entire universe can be found on the hiking page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are trail-inspired models suitable for the mountains?
They are suitable for fast hiking on marked trails with a lightweight bag. On rough terrain or with a loaded bag, a taller upper and stiffer sole are preferable for supporting the ankle.
How does a PFC-free water repellent work?
The water repellent causes water to bead on the surface of the fabric. The new formulas without perfluorinated compounds, which are more environmentally friendly, need to be reactivated more often, either by using a gentle tumble dryer or a spray.
How do you reactivate the waterproofing of a jacket?
Wash it with a technical detergent, without fabric softener, then tumble dry on low heat if the label allows it. When water no longer beads, a water-repellent treatment product will restore the protection.
What bag should I choose for a multi-day hike?
For trekking, expect forty to fifty litres, with a padded belt that transfers weight to the hips and an adjustable back. An integrated rain cover protects the contents.
Do new hiking shoes fit differently?
A new version may change the shape or upper: try it on with your hiking socks at the end of the day when your feet have swollen a bit. Keep a finger's width of space at the front for downhill walks.
