When the temperatures drop outside, the first snow falls and the air smells like winter, there is hardly anything more important than warm, dry feet. Winter boots are real everyday heroes at this time of year – they get you safely through slush, keep you warm on long walks and ensure that you feel comfortable even in icy winds. But not all winter boots are the same! Depending on your everyday life, thirst for adventure and personal needs, there are models that are particularly well suited to you.
Here we show you what really matters – and which GIESSWEIN winter boots are guaranteed to make your cold days better.

Warm winter boots for outdoor adventures

For winter hikes, walks in the snow or tours through forests and mountains, you need shoes that can be relied upon. The Wool Cross X Alpine is the perfect partner here:

The innovative 3D knit technology ensures that the boot fits your foot like a second skin – stable yet flexible. The non-slip Micro-Grip sole gives you safety and grip on any surface.

Thanks to its merino wool lining, your feet stay at a comfortable temperature, whether you're hiking across snow-covered meadows or stony paths. And thanks to the GIESSWEIN anti-blister heel, your adventure will be free of pressure points and friction.

Water? Snow? Cold? No problem – with these boots, your most beautiful winter days begin.

Waterproof – winter boots that can withstand any weather

When rain, sleet or slush dominate your everyday life, you need boots that can handle it all.
The Wool Cross X Alpine and Merino Leather Alpine are completely waterproof, keeping your feet dry even when you're trudging through deep puddles or caught in a sudden winter downpour.
The Merino Leather Alpine also features high-quality, robust nubuck leather, a non-slip treaded sole and water-repellent two-tone laces that won't get wet or loose, even in wet conditions. Its soft merino lining provides comfortable warmth and prevents unpleasant sweating.
Whether for everyday wear or outdoor activities, these models will keep you weatherproof.

The warmest boots thanks to merino wool

Warmth is essential in winter – and this is where GIESSWEIN boots show their greatest strength: merino wool.

Merino is temperature-regulating, soft and incredibly comfortable to wear. It keeps your feet warm without making you sweat, while ensuring that the temperature inside the boot remains comfortable at all times.

The Merino Leather Boot is the epitome of cosy warmth: a soft, lined nubuck leather boot with a 360° merino interior. It is waterproof, stabilises your foot, cushions every step and is therefore ideal for cold winter days – whether in everyday life, on a walk or in the hustle and bustle of the city.

For those looking for something lighter, there is the Wool Sneaker High Top: warm like a winter boot, light like a sneaker. The high merino construction stabilises your ankle while ensuring that every step feels light as a feather.

Secure grip – non-slip soles for any terrain

Winter paths can be challenging: icy stones, wet leaves and slippery pavements are simply part of winter. That's why a reliable sole is crucial.
The Wool Cross X Alpine in particular offers maximum grip with its Micro-Grip technology – whether you're going uphill, downhill or cross-country.
The Merino Leather Alpine, on the other hand, features a stable tread sole made of high-quality rubber that offers grip and safety in alpine terrain.
All models are pleasantly lightweight, allowing you to move freely without feeling like you're trudging heavily through the landscape. This makes winter fun again!
