Exclusive to Hi-Tec, ion-mask technology is set to revolutionise the way boots are waterproofed and makes most other membrane methods of waterproofing primitive and obsolete.

However the boot has lacked the ability to compete with the higher ranges of walking boots with Goretex technology membranes. Such walking boots as the Brasher Hillmaster have continued to outsell Hi-TecÂs altitude walking boot as they use membrane technology to enhance waterproofing and breath-ability. However Hi-tec have launched the new Altitude this week with advanced waterproofing technology only used in the military (IonMask). Ionmask is a new waterproof technology discovered and developed at Durham University. Instead of using membrane technology such as Goretex and Event, the Altitude Ultra now uses a chemical agent which completely waterproofs the whole product. Unlike a membrane the chemical waterpoofing cannot be broken down or Âworn outÂ. Once it is attached to the boot it covers and bonds with every surface making the product completely resistant to water.
