The Aigle Huntshaw 2 MTD is a waterproof field and walking boot featuring Aigle's welded MTD membrane, adjustable elastic closure, and a superior grip outsole. Available in Brown and Asphalt colourways, sizes 39–46. Built for shoot days, dog work, and winter walking in wet conditions.

Why We Recommend It

Aigle has been crafting exceptional waterproof boots since 1853, and the Huntshaw 2 MTD is the modern expression of that heritage. The MTD membrane is welded rather than stitched — a critical difference that eliminates the most common failure point in waterproof footwear. We stock these because they genuinely perform season after season, and our customers return for them year after year.

Bailey Says 🐾

I've seen Craig in some questionable footwear over the years — wellies that leaked, boots that squeaked, shoes that were frankly an embarrassment to the profession. The Huntshaw 2s are none of those things. Dry feet, good grip, and they don't look like you've borrowed them from a building site. If you're spending serious time in the field with your dogs, these are the boots. My friends, trust Bailey on this one. 🐾

Perfect For

Pickers-up and handlers working dogs on shoot days
Gamekeepers and beaters covering mixed terrain in all weathers
Winter hillwalking and country walking in wet conditions
Anyone needing a reliable, smart-looking waterproof field boot

Professional Insight

The Huntshaw 2 MTD occupies a practical sweet spot between a traditional rubber welly and a technical walking boot. The welded MTD membrane delivers genuine waterproofing without the stiffness of a full rubber boot, and the grip outsole handles the kind of mixed terrain a typical shoot day throws at you — wet grass, muddy gateways, gravel drives. The two colourways give handlers a choice between classic country brown and a more contemporary dark grey, both smart enough for the field.

Training Academy Tip 💡

Gun Mart reviewer Pete Wadeson highlighted something often overlooked on the Huntshaw 2 MTD — the raised heel section in the outsole. Few boot manufacturers use this design, but it places the foot in a more natural position, which translates directly into greater comfort and stability over a long day on mixed terrain. If you're spending hours on your feet picking up or walking up, that subtle engineering detail makes a real difference by the end of the drive. Wadeson also praised the 360° protection from the outsole construction, which replaces the typical rubber rand and gives full coverage without adding bulk. As he put it: “a robust lightweight all-rounder which gives reliable weather protection and comfort.”

Complete Your Setup

Pair with merino wool shooting socks for maximum warmth and moisture management on long days. Consider adding waterproof field trousers or gaiters for complete wet weather protection.

FAQs

Are the Aigle Huntshaw 2 MTD boots fully waterproof?

Yes. The MTD membrane is welded rather than stitched, eliminating seam points where water could penetrate. They are fully waterproof in normal field and walking conditions.

Do they come up true to size?

Aigle boots generally come up true to EU sizing. If you're between sizes or plan to wear thick shooting socks, we recommend sizing up by one.

Are these suitable for a full day on a shoot?

Absolutely. The cushioned insole and lightweight construction make them comfortable for long days on your feet, whether you're picking up, walking up, or standing at a peg.

What is the difference between Brown and Asphalt?

Brown is a warm tan tone that suits traditional country attire. Asphalt is a dark grey-charcoal that works well with more contemporary field clothing. Both are equally waterproof and durable.
