Discover the best winter activities and find out how you can get through the cold season warmly, comfortably and stylishly with GIESSWEIN sneakers.
Winter is just around the corner, and with it the perfect time to enjoy nature in all its glittering splendour. Fresh air, snow-covered landscapes and sporting activities make the cold months something very special. But how do you stay warm and active in sub-zero temperatures without sacrificing comfort? With the right tips, activities and the right equipment from GIESSWEIN, you'll be perfectly equipped. Here are four ideas for unforgettable winter days - and how to stay cosy and warm.
Winter hiking: Experience pure nature
When the snow covers the landscape like a soft blanket, it's time for a long winter hike. Whether through quiet forests or along snow-covered mountain trails - winter hiking is not only good for the soul, but also a perfect way to stay active.
The Wool Cross X Alpine from GIESSWEIN is your ideal companion for such adventures. Waterproof and equipped with temperature-regulating merino wool, your feet will stay warm and dry, even when the snow and cold strike. Thanks to the anti-bubble heel and micro-grip sole, you'll enjoy maximum comfort and a secure grip, even on slippery surfaces.
Tip: Don't forget to pack a thermos flask with hot tea - this makes every break a highlight!
Trail running in winter: Dynamics in the snow
Trail running is also a fantastic option in winter for those who like it sporty. Trails covered in deep snow not only challenge your endurance, but also your coordination - and are twice as much fun as in summer.
The Wool Trail X from GIESSWEIN is made for challenging terrain. Its Vibram® sole offers excellent grip on snow and ice, while the merino wool lining keeps your feet dry and warm. Whether in mud or snow - this shoe will keep up with you.
Extra tip: Start on familiar routes before venturing into unknown terrain and wear reflective clothing for better visibility.
Snowshoe hiking: On silent soles through the snow
Snowshoeing is the perfect alternative for anyone who wants to enjoy the winter tranquillity off the beaten track. With special snowshoes, you can move effortlessly through deep snow and discover hidden landscapes.
The Wool Cross X Alpine is your perfect companion. Its waterproof finish and warm merino wool reliably protect your feet from the cold and wet.
Pro tip: Snowshoeing is a great full-body workout. Start slowly and build up to avoid sore muscles.
Curling: Winter fun with friends
Curling is a sociable classic that always puts everyone in a good mood. Whether on frozen lakes or special lanes - this game combines activity with fun and is perfect for a day out with family and friends.
This is where the Wool Sneaker High Top comes into play: Their natural water repellency protects your feet from moisture, while the merino wool keeps them nice and warm. So you can play for hours without getting cold toes.
Did you know? Merino wool is naturally odour-repellent - which means your shoes stay fresh even after long days.
Winter offers countless opportunities to stay active and enjoy nature to the full. With the right activities and the right equipment from GIESSWEIN, nothing stands in the way of an unforgettable winter. Whether on hiking paths, trails or ice rinks - merino wool ensures warmth, comfort and style in every situation.
So, grab your GIESSWEIN trainers, dress warmly and head outdoors - winter is waiting for you!
