Parrot Brand

This brand used to have a great reputation but lately the quality has gone down the drain. Use of sub quality materials, visible cracks appearing on my hiking shoes only after a few wears. I glued the outsole and mid sole a few times already to keep it useful. I do some preventative maintainance on my footwear. I looked at the construction and gluing. Hi Tec boots were poorly constructed. Timberland aren't any better. From my small sample, I can say Merrell and shoes from Decathlon are better made and better priced. Review based on Hi-Tec Wildlife Scorpion Mid purchased 2021.

I bought a pair of Gelert Horizon hiking boots in 2018 after an ankle injury to ensure that I do not sprain that ankle again. It was very reasonably priced and it was comfortable once i added an insole. I made a few hikes in 2019 (maybe 5 times) but in 2020 I could not do any hikes due to Covid. In 2021 i went for a short hike and the entire sole came loose on BOTH sides. Wore it less than 10 times.
