Brilliant boots - been using Altberg boots for a very long time. Not one single problem in over 20 years.

Highly recommend these boots. Have been wearing them for years now, and this particular boot is without doubt my favourite. With that military grade waterproof intermediate lining they keep your feet dry every time you use them. Right up until the very last time you wear them. The ones I wear usually last a good year and a half and I use them almost every day as I'm an instructor. Simply put, although the price is average for the quality, you WILL NOT find a better boot anywhere. And that includes anywhere in the world!

Having worn Altberg Defenders for many years, I wanted a lighter more comfortable alternative for long hikes. I tried a few cheaper options before trying the Sneeker Aqua but wish I had gone for these straight away. They are perfect for military or civilian use and are fully waterproof. I know they will last a long time as all Altberg boots do, but if buying them, remember to look after them and use the Leder Gris wax to nourish the leather and help with water resistance.

Delivery was very fast (To Israel during COVID-19). Price is a little high yet the cost effectiveness justifies it. Bought the boots for my daily motorcycle travel to work for rainy days as a footwear that is wearable through the whole day at the office. The boots kept me dry through rainstorm or puddle crossings and having them oiled from time to time keeps them representable. During hikes and walks with the dog they are very useful. A very good purchase in my opinion.

Bought these in a bit of a rush as we had a field day coming up. Customer services got them out to me within 48 hours. Was on my feet all day in these and they remained comfortable despite being new and not properly broken in. Since have been using them for all my walks and have even given my other boots away as these meet all my needs. If they ever do need replacing I’ll be getting the same again.
