Our Review
With Autumn's wet and muddy weather, and our lad's feet growing out of things so fast, we started to look to get him a new pair of walking shoes.
Fortunately, Trespass offered to send us one of their Kid's Walking Shoes to test out. Thanks, Trespass :-)
Having looked at the different options on the Trespass website, there were quite a few choices of kids walking boots or shoes.
We opted for walking shoes over walking boots, as these give the most use.
Trespass Gillon Review
They arrived quickly. The Carbon and Kiwi colour look great and got a big thumbs up from our lad.
The Trespass Gillon low cut kids walking shoes in their box.
The first thing I checked out was the tread, an important part of any outdoor footwear.
On the underside, they have a good tread, that should give plenty of grip in the outdoors.
Close up, these shoes look great.
The shoes look good with the Carbon and Kiwi design.
Inside they have plenty of padding, and our lad found them very comfortable.
Sometimes shoe sizes can be slightly off between different brands. However, these Trespass walking shoes fit well.
Enough of the indoor testing; it was time to get outside :-)
Ready for the wet and muddy weather of the autumn.
The first test was on a mix of paths and countryside for a handful of miles while taking the dog for a walk. Despite being new, our lad found them comfortable. There was no rubbing that you might sometimes get on new shoes.
We climbed up a (very steep) muddy hill. The Trespass Gillon shoes were up to the task.
The next test was to get them outdoors for real, with a hike on a wet day up a very steep muddy hill.
We were all slipping on this hill, but these shoes held their grip well.
It was a good test with mud, puddles, forest, wet grassy slopes, gravel descent, and rocks.
No sore feet. No wet feet.
Features

Verdict
These kids' walking shoes did exactly what they said they would. They're comfortable, dry, and great for helping your kids explore the great outdoors.
The Trespass Gillon Kids walking shoes get the Thumbs Up from us.
