I’m a mother on maternity leave, of course a day doesn’t go by without a walk, we just walk a lot, I decided to pick up a pair of sneakers that are not the most expensive, but preferably high-quality, so that they could withstand more tests and look human, and most importantly, comfortable.

My attention on one stock, English store site was attracted by the pretty ones, both in terms of looks and price (33 Karrimor Duma running shoes (special anatomical outsole).

The question was with the size, but I found a size chart of this particular company on the Internet, measured the leg exactly to a millimeter, ordered it according to the description 5 UK size on 38 European ( 7 USA) (on my narrow leg ( 25 cm), it seems to me that if the leg is wide, it may not fit, maybe size 5.5 is needed) - they fit me perfectly.

Size Chart Karrimor

The color, the Internet is not as juicy as in reality, just beauties.

Normally sewn, the quality of materials is not the highest, but the ratio of price and quality is adequate - good.

Very light, just airy.

So ... I've been scolding them a little bit since I wrote a review and I want to supplement it. I put them on every day. In terms of quality, everything is ok, but the model itself. My gait is normal, I step on the whole foot, neither inward, nor vice versa. And in these sneakers, the feeling that the legs go inward. or something, a duck gait. Legs get very tired from this.

I am not an expert on sports shoes, but that according to this model, apparently it is exactly like that, probably who has another * step * they may fit. A month later, the bone at the thumb began to protrude.

Again, I repeat, such a model is possible, but I do not understand for whom they are sewn, what kind of leg should be under them. Moreover, these are running shoes, I have no idea how to do it. (Lowering the mark)

I wouldn't buy them now ...

Currently, Karrimor shoes (quality reviews are given below) are considered one of the most popular, the manufacturer is listed in the list of the best UK companies engaged in the production of sports goods and sports and outdoor equipment for professionals.

Brand history

The history of the brand's foundation dates back to 1946. The creators of Karrimor are Charles and Marie Parsons, and Marie's sister, Grace Davis. Over 70 years, the Karrimor range has expanded significantly - here lovers of an active lifestyle can find everything they need - from socks to tents.

Today, Karrimor tourist equipment and footwear, reviews of which are evidence of the high quality of its products, can be called the emblem of travelers. Special equipment and specialized footwear are developed taking into account the wishes of both professional athletes - climbers and famous travelers, and non-professionals - lovers of outdoor activities.

The creators of the brand are trying to provide target consumers only with high quality and absolutely reliable ammunition with great potential for durability. Regardless of whether it is a backpack or a specialized attribute of equipment, any Karrimor products are durable and capable of withstanding almost any load.

The membrane that breathes ...

One of Karrimor's inventions is the eVENT membrane made of breathable and waterproof material. The advantage of the eVENT membrane is that instead of the traditional PU coating, a special material ePTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) is used, the chemical formula of which changes its properties when it comes into contact with fat-containing compounds. By repelling impurities, the membrane always remains clean - its pores are always open.

Manufacturers consider the advantage of their models to be the ultra-modern technology for the manufacture of the upper part of the boots. Karrimor shoes (customer reviews are the main confirmation of this) breathes, does not let water through and protects the tourist from the wind.

Polytetrafluoroethylene, made up of millions of microscopic pores, prevents water from penetrating into the interior of the shoe and does not impede moisture evaporation. The main advantage of the eVENT membrane is the ability to freely remove moisture without condensation.

... and does not wear out

The Weathertite waterproof breathable membrane, another Karrimor development, first saw the light of day in 1948. With a multi-layer structure (laminate), Weathertite is a model of wear resistance, and the manufacturing technology of this model is constantly being improved. The developers make sure that the waterproof membrane is always up to date with the latest technological advances.

Smart outsole

The Vibram outsole has been designed and engineered specifically for trekking boots. Vibram adheres perfectly to any structure and never gets dirty thanks to the self-cleaning tread. The outsole is conventionally divided into several zones that provide braking, repulsion and stability. The developers attach particular importance to the stability of this kind of footwear, which is why they provided the Vibram sole with an intermediate cushioning layer made of polyurethane.

Karrimor: Reviews from buyers of online stores

Waterproof boots made of genuine leather for sure will be appreciated by the representatives of the stronger sex, whose lifestyle provides for a long stay on the street. Thanks to the thermal insulation properties of the Thinsulate layer, which ensures an even distribution of heat throughout the foot, the shoe protects its owner even when the air temperature is significantly lowered (down to -35). In addition, the boots are made using modern waterproof technology, which keeps your feet dry even during a strong thaw.

Thinsulate's unique hollow microfibers actively absorb air and reflect heat emanating from the human body to return heat energy back. 10 times smaller than traditional synthetic materials, thinsulate microfibers are 2 times more efficient and more comfortable than all known analogues.

The finishing touch of seasonal footwear is the outsole with a three-dimensional pattern. You can even walk on ice in such shoes. An additional strip of rubber is sewn along the entire perimeter of the sole, which protects the wearer's toes, and the boots themselves from accidental damage. The ankle and heel areas are trimmed with the same soft edging. The highlight of this innovation is the English scrupulousness and the desire to do everything efficiently.

It's no secret that winter boots with embossed protectors have recently been the dream of many representatives of the fair half of humanity. This is especially true for the inhabitants of small towns where it is difficult to buy good shoes.
