Description Created in partnership with wilderness experts, the Tracker Forest ESC works with nature to thrive in the forest biome, where moisture regulation is vital and mud often limits proprioception. It’s our most advanced adventure boot yet, packed with expedition-grade features without compromising natural performance, classic barefoot feel and fit. A free 50ML Renapur Leather Balsam is included on every Tracker Forest Esc purchase.OUTDOOR ESC MICHELIN© OUTSOLEThe wild sole for wild adventures. 2.5mm Vivos are designed with thin soles to help reconnect you with the ground, and provide flexibility for strong, healthy feet. 7mm Tread depth refers to the thickness of the patterns or "lugs," on the sole. These are purposefully designed to cater to specific surfaces and conditions, providing an ideal combination of traction, grip, and a sense of connection with the ground. The Outdoor Esc Michelin© Outsole has a 2.5mm base and 7mm lug height, engineered to maximise ground feel and traction. Made from high performance rubber with an aggressive off-trail lug design, this sole gives feet the strongest grip, even in the most challenging environments. When you’re climbing hills (or mountains), the articulated toe lugs act like claws, while the essential heel lug provides a critical break for steep descents. Human beings aren’t separate to nature, we are nature. When we listen to it's rhythm and connect to its intelligence, we thrive. It's time to get outside and rewild. ORTHOLITE INSOLEThe Active Ortholite Performance Insole is made of 98% recycled PU foam, which helps reduce waste and the use of virgin plastics.PUNCTURE RESISTANTThe Pro5 Puncture Resistant finish is a lightweight and flexible 0.8mm layer on the sole. Protective underfoot to keep painful bits out, but still letting all the feeling in.WATER RESISTANTMade from materials that are water resistant and materials that are non-absorbent.Weight Based on an individual shoe (Mens Size 7)WEIGHTBased on a single shoe in Men's size: EU 42 | UK 8 | US 9525g The Tracker Forest ESC is for wild hiking, trekking and expeditions – optimised for temperate forests, but highly versatile, offering peak performance in many environments.

Community feedback
“I use these boots for work. I'm always on my feet. I've been wearing boots for the past 10 years and have walked through plenty of boots. These are in a class of there own. Very comfortable, sometimes when I get home, I forget to take them off, because I forget I have thenlm on. When I wear these out, I will buy another pair.”
“I bought a pair knowing about the problematic eyelet at the ankle. I tried to be careful but one of them broke very easily one day. Maybe I could have had a new eyelet installed but instead I took out two others. I didn't take out one because it was properly, I mean very well, attached. (The last two came off too easily.) I shortened the laces, cut then cauterised the tips. The boots became much more comfortable for me so I'm reasonably happy. Funny isn't it that I would have been less pleased with these if the eyelets had not been crap.”
“On the first pair I ordered, I pulled hard to pull the laces snug, and the right eyehole came out. I'm on my third pair now, having returned the previous two, and having had my boots sitting too long for the replacement. I have been able as a surrogate to add a [one inck S-hook](https://www.amazon.com/one-inck-S-hook/dp/B07ZNT1XX5/ref=cmcrarpdrvwtxt?ie=UTF8) to replace the lost eyehole, and have the box safely kept in case I need to replace more eyeholes. It's basically a really nice boot, but much more brittle than it looks. Four stars is for after getting an order of S-hooks to replace missing eyescrews, and adding a drop of superglue to all remaining holders of screws.”
