Anybody know what HiTech's IonMask is like for performance and durability


Rubbish.


My sister bought a pair of HiTech's IonMask walking boots around £90 I think sorry can’t remember exactly which ones, but I do know she got very little wear out of them under 60 mile. As fair as I know the upper didn’t let water in but marked and cut very easily. But the worst thing was the soul very quickly came away from the leather upper allowing water in. I tried to persuade her to return them to the shop but because she walks so infrequently she said she had had them to long to take back.
