If you want a pair of good hiking boots, these are the way to go. High-quality materials and workmanship make these punch way above their price point. Suitable for all seasons. As a valid selling point, these are made either in Bosnia or Slovenia, not in some far East sweatshop.

A modern hiking boot

Years ago we'd sell German surplus Gebirgsjäger boots, which were popular but the sole was too stiff for regular hiking use. These boots show a strong heritage of European hiking boot tradition, the looks are subdued, but the features and ergonomics are up-to-date.

• Outer material 2 mm thick nubuck leather
• Quick lacing at the bottom, lace locks at the instep and hooks to secure the shaft
• Shock absorbing, non-slip rubber sole
• Midsole: Injected PU
• Sole attachment: molded, not glued
• Waterproof and breathable Alpitex membrane
• Good factory insoles

In other words, excellent hiking boots for temperate climates where the conditions are predominantly quite wet or at least uncertain more often than not. Just add socks and they work in winter too. If you tread through heather or snow, use gaiters.
