Struggling to find gifts for the walkers in your life? You’ve come to the right place. We have plenty of cool (but practical) walking gifts for you to choose from to suit any budget – and walking style – this Christmas.
Walking shoes
Of course, the absolute essential for any walking enthusiast is a great pair of walking shoes to carry them through their adventures. At Winfields Outdoors, we have one of the best walking shoe collections in the UK, chock full of products from leading outdoor brands.
Just look at the Kesmere Womens Rambler Mid Waterproof Walking Boots. Known for their reliability, support, and straight out of the box comfort, Kesmere walking boots are an excellent gift for outdoor lovers. With a padded collar and tongue for additional comfort, and a durable outsole for traction and stability, it’s a clear winner as an outdoorsy Christmas gift.
Walking poles
If you’re struggling to find the best gift for walkers in your life, have you thought about surprising them with a new pair of walking poles? These are perfect to help spread the weight of a backpack, and protect their knees from too much impact – so they can enjoy the outdoors comfortably for longer.
One of our favourites is Highlander Isle Of Mull Walking Poles 69cm – 140cm (Pair). Built from 6061 aluminium, these walking poles are strong and durable for use over any terrain, and include an on/off anti-shock mechanism to reduce the impact through the hands during use. They’re also easily shortened down for quick storage on the go, or for short stops at the local pub for a quick drink mid-walk.
Gaiters
They may not seem like the most exciting outdoorsy gift you could choose, but with the unpredictability of the British weather, a pair of gaiters would likely be incredibly appreciated. Giving you the function and protection of wellingtons, while still being able to have the support of a walking boot, gaiters are a superb option to stay dry in wet weather.
Take the Trekmates Karakorum GORE-TEX Gaiters as an example, Attaching under the sole of their boots, these can protect their lower legs from the elements when they’re out walking. Plus, the three-layer GORE-TEX material is lightweight, comfortable, and durable for long-lasting protection.
