Leather with a DriDefense membrane, waterproof and breathable, and a Vibram® Arctic Grip outsole built to hold on the wet ice of cities at the thaw. HEAT-MX™ insulation and a moisture-wicking lining, 15 cm shaft, the weight of a town shoe. EU sizes 40 to 46.
The Spencer Mid is the men's leather winter shoe from Kamik, the Canadian maker based in Montréal since 1898. Its leather upper with a DriDefense membrane stops rain and slush while letting perspiration out, with the look of a high-cut town shoe. Its Vibram® Arctic Grip outsole is built for one precise thing: holding on wet ice, the kind on a pavement at the thaw and on car-park steps.
Inside, the HEAT-MX™ insulation and a moisture-wicking lining keep the foot warm; the padded collar closes the top with no hard edge. A 15 cm shaft stops just above the ankle, at shoe height, for the weight of a shoe.
Classic lacing. Available in EU sizes 40 to 46.
Two leather Kamiks in the range; warmth is not what sets them apart. The Iceland rises higher and insulates more; the Spencer Mid has a Vibram® outsole made for wet ice, the ice of Montréal at the thaw. Choose it for the city that refreezes every night, not for deep snow. With a thin Heat Holders LITE sock: a compressed foot loses what the outsole gains.
The HEAT-MX™ insulation holds the air warmed by the foot; the DriDefense membrane lets perspiration out while blocking water, which keeps the foot dry both ways. The comfort rating applies on the move, walking in town with a thin to medium sock. The shaft stops just above the ankle: in deep snow or for hours standing still on frozen ground, take a high boot with a removable liner — the Spencer Mid is a town shoe, its strength is grip.
A winter shoe that answers the question the others ignore: on wet ice, do you stay on your feet? The Vibram® Arctic Grip outsole is developed for that, the DriDefense membrane keeps the foot dry both ways, the HEAT-MX™ insulation provides the warmth. All of it at the weight of a town shoe.
Why the feet lose heat first:
Feet that stay cold often point to heat lost elsewhere — cover the head first. Under the shoe, the Heat Holders LITE socks complete the system. An outsole made for ice is only worth as much as it is clean: dried salt in the lugs is grip lost.
* Indicative temperature. Perceived warmth varies with activity, body type, humidity, wind and the layers worn underneath.
