About Hi-Tec
Boots, shoes and clothing
Walking boots and walking shoes make up the heart of the range, with trainers for lighter use. Many boots have waterproof membranes, and a 'Waterproof' or 'WP' label in the name marks those models. Grippy outsoles and cushioned midsoles feature across the line. Clothing includes lightweight jackets and trousers designed for layering in changeable weather.
Sizing tips
Sizing on Hi-Tec footwear tends to run true. Going half a size up leaves room for thick walking socks on longer hikes. Shoes arrive in their original Hi-Tec box, so keep it in case a pair needs to go back.
Delivery, returns and payment
Standard UK delivery takes three to five working days, and orders over £50 travel free. Express delivery is also available. Unworn shoes can be returned within 30 days in their original packaging with tags attached, and UK returns are free. Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay are accepted. Students can verify through Student Beans for a first-order discount, and NHS staff get a discount too.
Sustainability at Hi-Tec
Hi-Tec is committed to more sustainable practices in footwear manufacturing. The brand focuses on creating durable products designed for longevity rather than disposability, reducing environmental impact through quality construction.
