Built for early season hunters who demand serious gear without unnecessary weight, the Kestrel is ideal for warm weather archery seasons, prairies, rolling hills, and high-mileage backcountry pursuits where breathability and mobility matter most.
At its core, the Kestrel is crafted from mountain proven 2.8mm top-grain rough-out leather and an ultrabreathable Schoeller stretch fabric trim giving you a combination that keeps the air flowing without sacrificing durability in demanding terrain. This makes it one of the most breathable hunting boots in our entire lineup, ideal for warm climates and early season hunts. Underfoot, the Kestrel features our pLite polyurethane midsole, delivering lightweight shock absorption, long-term support, and reduced foot fatigue even after long days on the trail.
Paired with the Vibram Circuma outsole, this boot grips confidently over mixed ground, from dry prairies to broken hillsides. The Flex-1 chassis offers a more agile, athletic feel than heavier mountain hunting boots, without compromising critical support for side-hilling or uneven ground. A 100% waterproof Sympatex membrane ensures reliable protection when crossing creeks, morning dew, or unexpected downpours.
Handcrafted in the Schnee production facility in the foothills of the Dolomites in the Italian Alps with the same attention to detail and quality materials as our flagship mountain boots, the Kestrel is designed for the serious hunter who moves fast, covers ground, and hunts smart — even when the temperatures climb.
