The Adidas Terrex Free Hiker GTX has received excellent reviews since its release.
The Adidas Free Hiker is as close to hiking shoe , boot perfection as I’ve ever seen.
I purchased two pairs of Free hikers both in GTX ( Gore -Tex)
I got one “regular” pair and one COLD.RDY pair.
I absolutely love them both. I can honestly say after 5 months of winter/fall use, these shoes are the best hiking boots I have used to date.
They aren’t perfect tho. The sizing is a little trail and error. The top of the shoes is a little tight for my foot even after months of use, and I wish they had a Safety Toe. Besides those minor areas for improvement I haven’t seen a better hiking boot on the market.
Even after months of use these boots both passed the submersion test with flying colors. Some GTX boots will develop leaks after a few months of use, but I’m very happy to report that these are still very much water resistant “proof”.

Appreciate the field testing for waterproofing, really helps!! Not every reviewer would wade in a pond to really test the GTX 👍🏼

@KRTLyfe 3 года назад

Glad you liked the review and found it helpful. Submerging the product is my favorite part because I’ve purchased “waterproof” products before and some have leaked out the box our leaked at the worst possible time… Like on the side of a mountain in the winter smh. So I always like to test my gear.

@TinFoilHatx 2 года назад

@@KRTLyfe Hey mate, how is the width on these bad boys for either model. Im looking into the GTX free hiker. Every other gore-tex sneaker/hiker ive tried thus far from nike and reebok has been narrow as hell. Do these hold up in width compared to normal sneakers ?

I just picked up the Terrex Trailmaker Mid GORE-TEX Hiking Shoes based on your review. Got them for 112 because of memorial weekend with a 30% off promo code. They are every bit as impressive as I would hope and more. I filled up the sink and submerged my foot and sure enough they are waterproof. They are so light. Goin to hike in the Amazon next week. Thank you again!!!!

@scratchy996 2 года назад

All Gore-Tex shoes are waterproof when new. The problems start to appear after one season of hiking. I've had so many bad experiences with Gore-Tex shoes that I went back to traditional leather boots. They are more breathable, and with the right treatment they are water proof.

@IMGROWN3232 3 года назад

Perfect review bud thanks so much. I'm a security guard in the rainy uk on a huge building site and my pair of the cold version arrived today. I've brought them into work and walked through all the biggest puddles which must be 3" deep in places and not even so much as any damp got in. I then came inside and switched back to my trainers as my feet were super toasty! They will also be perfect for cycling or motorcycling in cold wet conditions albeit without the armour of motorbike boots. Snagged mine for less than $200usd so I'm thrilled with them, well worth the wonga! £€$

@harolddenton6031 Год назад

Cool review of these Adidas hiking shoes. I have been binge watching lots of AT thru hikers RU-vid videos. Majority of them choose not to hike in gortex boots/shoes as they do not dry out quick enough if hiking all day in heavy rain and having to wake through too many streams flowing with deeper water. I might have to buy a pair of Adidas trail running shoes and see if they work for my size 12/2E wide feet. I am leaning towards buying a goid pair of altra mont blonc or Olympus trail sneakers or the hooka speed goat or altra lone peaks model trail shies.

@KRTLyfe Год назад

That is interesting. What materials and shoes are they using? I definitely have not put mine through the same rigors of thru hikers but I have stayed out doors in them for several days on end. I haven’t experienced drying issues at all. I can’t imagine what dries faster than Gore Tex & Nylon coated with DWR. Please share your findings I’m very interested.

@30m3 2 года назад

They do run large but not large enough to size down. The normal free hikers are too stretchy on the top of the foot which made them horrible to hike downhill in. My current go to hiking shoes are the Arcteryx Aerios GTX, which are superb in terms of lockdown, weight and grip.

@sdemosi Год назад

Same experience. I found them good on relatively flat terrain, nice to ascend with so long as it wasn't too muddy. They were horrible to descend with. Unbalanced, couldn't heel brake. Just horrible. It felt like trying to descend in a trainer. They're not for mountains as far as I can see. Scarpa, Lowa, Salewa etc make mountain boots.

@expatadventureturkey9324 2 года назад

Great content, I have the free hiker and the lower cut version for trail running.

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

So I’ve been pondering using the regular Free Hiker as a trail running shoe but I’m on the fence about it. I saw a guy on RU-vid that said he did a 40 mile hike/run on them and that had me thinking…

@expatadventureturkey9324 2 года назад

@@KRTLyfe It is a fairly good trail shoe for longer distance, but the wt is a bit heavy, I prefer the INOV 8 G300 for long run past 15 miles or the Salmon Ultra glide for the same distance. Hoka has the speed goat as well another great contender for trail running. But for slower pace stuff the free hiker is comfortable and long lasting build well…love it for mix stuff like fast packing etc…Hope that helped have a great weekend.

I just purchased the COLD.RDY boots, I live in Wisconsin and work as a cart attendant so I'm outside and on my feet all day.

Thanks for sharing! My zipper has held up, but to be honest, even tho I haven’t had any issues it does sit in the back of my mind… If this zipper ever breaks these shoes are done.

First time on the channel. Great review and outdoor set-up 👌 just one question I'm hoping you can help me with. So like you rezza I'm looking for something that's not the traditional fresh out the woods, cumbersome, hiking boot. I tried walking in Nike Pegasus GTX Trail Runners but it turns out I'm susceptible to spraining my ankles. So I'm basically looking for something similar, but with added ankle support. So with these being high/mid tops, what's the ankle support like on them compared to a boot and compared to a lowtop trail runner?

I’ve seen them on the website for a few seasons now but never in a store or in person. I am curious to see what are like tho!

@MrML-jm5tr 2 года назад

I plan to bay this TERREX FREE HIKER GORE-TEX Could you tell me something about how it feels on snow is it could standing on ice or snow for longer time??? Btw very gooood video.👍

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

With the COLD.RDY I couldn’t tell i was standing on snow. However I was only standing on snow for an hour or so.

@AlphaUros 2 года назад

Hey guys, can u give an update now on how they fit after awhile? they still holding up? do they break in/strech out? im inbetween sizes, which one i pic is gonna depend on if they break in/strech out a little bit.

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

They haven’t stretched out at all. I would definitely get the size that fits you best. I don’t see these stretching for a long time.

I just recently purchased a pair of the gtx free hiker version and was wondering if the upper (prime knit) area is waterproof or holds up against rain?

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

If you look at our Instagram @KRTLYFE. I just up loaded a story walking through some pretty deep water. It should give you a good ideal.

@AhmadAli-du2fq 2 года назад

if you were to fold them down would it be good for all year use including office? I hate wet feet and don't like owning a whole lot of footwear

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

I wouldn’t recommend it. The only one you could somewhat “fold” is th COLD RDY and it is very insulated.

@demianbell6415 Год назад

Hey, great review 😊 I’m thinking of buying the cold.dry version. Do you think it would work alright for rainy autumn and winter days in the city? I’m going to be using them for at least 5-6 hours a day (a couple walking, the rest sitting) and am wondering if they’d get too hot if the conditions aren’t too extreme (negative Celsius, snow etc). Should I just opt for the regular gtx version? (I do clearly prefer the look of the cold.rdy 😂). Hopefully you see this, thanks in advance.

@KRTLyfe Год назад

So IMHO if you live in Toronto, Denver or similar climate I think you would get a decent amount of use out of them. If you live any where south of those cities I would say the “Normal” version is better. I get cold really easy especially my feet and I have struggled to find situations where I would use the COLD.RDY. They are definitely overkill for southern cities like mine.

Thanks for the review. Can you shed some info/light and that yellow jacket you were wearing at the end of the video?

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

Yes I can! It is made by The North Face it is called the DRYZZLE jacket. It is released in a variety of colors every year. I don’t think they have the same color yellow at the moment available on the website. Thank you for watching commenting and subscribing to our channel!

@@KRTLyfe awesome thank you. Too bad that yellow color is no longer available. Now that it has been 8 months since this video what are your thoughts on the adidas gore Tex free hikers? Hopefully you got to put them to more tests in the super cold and wet weather. Do you still have them, did you get the triple black free hikers? Or have you moved on to something else?

Main question, do we really need to buy a half size up (I wear 9, so 9.5) as with many hiking shoes to allow layered socks? Or as the reviewer says these get loose? Any experience guys?

@KRTLyfe Год назад

I would say try them in store with different socks. Everyone’s feet and needs are so different.

@allymapinda8804 2 года назад

I think Hiking boots are not meant for driving, if you do so then sure you will see the difference . I just bought SALOMON Hike GTX I cant wait to try them.

Loved the review man, I have the free hikers but am considering the cold.rdy and I think with your review you got me sold. I also wanted to know what pants those were at the end of your video, where you checked for the goretex or if you have any recommendations where I can get pants like those?

ADIDAS Z.N.E. PARLEY PANTS

@KRTLyfe 3 года назад

Those are some super cheap H&M pants... However they work excellent for camping and outdoor activities. I’ve gone on several multi day camping and fishing trips wearing only these pants. In weather ranging from 30F to 90f They are very comfortable, dry pretty fast, warm when wet, breath decent for the weight of the material, Zippered pockets I could go on and on about these pants lol. H&M mistakenly made one stellar pair of pants.

@sprcrzy110 3 года назад

When you did the waterproof test you mentioned that these were better than the Nike Antarktik. In what way are they better in terms of being waterproof?

@KRTLyfe 3 года назад

As far as water proof/ resistance they are similar. The Adidas are better for a number of reasons. 1) You can actually get them on your feet with out a fight. 2) The insulation on the Cold.RDY version works really well. 3) BOOST! 4) The Gore-Tex definitely does its job even after a lot of wear no leaks.

Hello! I saw one of your guys videos where you compared the terrex free hikers cold.rdy vs gtx. I want to get the cold.rdy but i was curious about the sizing. So i have tried the GTX and i fit quite well in size 8.5, so if i fit well on the size 8.5 on the GTX, what size would you recomand me getting the Cold.rdy ones, 8.5 or 9? Ps: i cant try the terrex cold.rdy physicaly on for size

@KRTLyfe 2 года назад

I would try going true to size unless you plan to wear really thick socks.

@ruslankordik8224 Год назад

How is your experience with sizing? I usually wear 10, but some shoes like 2k boost goretex 10.5 is better. Not sure which size to order. And I can't try them physically.

@jacobbriones8812 Год назад

Going on a trip up to Colorado in the snow and don’t want to use my regular hiking boots would the regular trex keep snow out the boot and feet dry nothing worse then cold wet socks

@KRTLyfe Год назад

I would say it depends on how deep the snow is going to be and if you are going to be using gaiters. Either way I would recommend some type of gaiter but if it was me I would lean towards the cold ready version for sure!

Wouldn't a half size up fix the problem with the tightness?

Possibly, its tricky tho cause you don’t want your foot to be able to shift much in hiking boots, especially if you hike in areas with step grades.

Never, I have worn mind in hard rain many times and standing water. They have never leaked, maybe you got a defective pair. Try contacting Adidas.
