Just in time for autumn and the activities that go with the cooler weather, Hi-Tec has expanded its portfolio with the introduction of the new city-to-trail hiking boots. Hi-Tec began in 1974 as a sneaker company specializing in footwear for squash players but quickly evolved into a globally known hiking footwear brand.
The brand's latest collection blends city-to-trail functionality and modern technologies at a very accessible price below the typical trail-functional footwear brands. Some notable pieces from the collection for men include the Trail Destroyer, the Skamania, and the Blackrock. On the other hand, the women's series features the Altitude VI I WP and the Apex.
The entire HI-Tec collection is now available to purchase online and in stores.
