Thanks for the insight.

Just bought some Malham boots and yes, the role on the forefoot was noticeable from the off. The heel feels nice and generally comfortable throughout. Looking forward to my first walk in them.

I have really wide feet and have a hard time finding boots that fit. I'm very thankful to Altberg for making boots that are genuinely comfortable. I've tried them all, Lowa, Danner, etc. If you're in the same boat, It's likely that their A-Form Extra-Wide or G-Fit will fit you. In addition, my dominant foot is 1/2 bigger than my non-dominant foot. You can custom order boots from the factory as a split size.

best set of boots money can buy, thank you for all you do.

The leather on mine is splitting and I've tried all kinds to stop it but no joy

I used issue boots on a exercise, came back and brought my own, Danner boots they were good, got the Altberg , they are very good indeed,,look after them and they last

If anyone ever asks me what make my boots are I always proudly say Altburg opps. Once you've had a pair of Altburg there is no going back. I am now on one of the latest A form military boots. It's a higher leg one. I got measured up at the shop 10 miles from where I live. I went to collect and they were perfectly comfortable the minute I put them on. I had no break in period. They are good for a 10 hour day doing field archery or walking. They are waterproof to the top of the boot. I don't understand why they are less popular. I had the old defender boots for many years but I love these. I'm not military. These boots are the best quality in the world. Proud Yorkshire company. As we all know unless it's from Yorkshire it's sh...

I had no idea that the gloss is bad because it stops breathability! I've always maintained boots as I was shown in cadets as a boy, I had no idea that gris is the way to go!

Never heard of waxing your laces! Great bit of advice

Love my defenders! I've got the 2nd generation ones.

Please keep doing what you are doing. I have worked on the "front line" for many years and have worn so many types of boots. I wore the "combat high" when they were first issued, a blessing after dms and puttees but your boots put the combat high well into the shade. Your boots and the quality of construction is second to none and thank you for that. Your lacing system is the best by far, when you are behind the wheel you need to be able to flexy your ankles and your boots allow that. You have scored a direct hit in your manufacturing and may you please continue to do so. Thank You.

He's a Yorkshire man, he's not only cleaning his application brush to keep it ready for use he's also avoiding waste.

The work ethic on this guy is amazing. I love Altberg

partly the reason I bought my wife a pair of Altberg’s whilst we were on holiday In Keswick was this very story the assistant told me, imagine my delight when it dawned on me that it was the old shoe factory up on the trading estate in Richmond less than a mile away from where I’d been brought up( I’ve lived in Scotland for 34years). I particularly liked the Black Sheep mention , a very fine beer indeed, and even better was the idea of you supping a pint in The Black Lion, I used to work behind the bar there in the 80’s when I was a student. A real trip down memory lane. btw my wife absolutely loves her Alberg’s, up here in Scotland she uses them every single day walking the dog on the fells and also for bagging Munro’s and has never had a moments bother from the second she put them on….absolutely top notch craftsmanship. Thanks for taking the time to tell the amazing Altberg story.

The volume idea of width fitting is bad for feet because it inevitably still squeezes toes inwards on a natural foot, even if there's lots of room elsewhere.

Do you make the boots with an upside down hook on the tung to prevent the tung from moving whilst walking . Reason I ask is since buying a pair of German Bavarian boots which has an upside down hook , I realise how beneficial it is . I Would love to see your boots with this little detail. 👍

As someone who has only ever owned full-grain, goretex mountain boots, boot are was always simple. Clean well and wax heavily with a beeswax product. When I bought some breathable boots for the desert I was at an impasse because I want to care for the suede, and keep it in good condition without cracking, but I know that waxing will kill the breathability. I was having a hard time finding information on how to care for suede, and found this extremely helpful, so thank you.

This gentleman is an amazing inspiration and we should try and bottle his enthusiasm and knowledge. I am a proud wearer of his excellent boots. I salute you,sir

What a legend

The CBH was a total piece of crap. I got a pair of Danners...and eventually bought of pair of your high legs in around 1993 I think, which did me proud!

well, it is a good stuff. membrane is good for wetness but not when water goes beyond top point. so u got to have no membrane boots as well. to be equipeed for all kind of situations. membrane boots dry out a week or more. so its better to get wet with no membrane, change socks, dry boots for 2 hours and u are good to go

2 factories? not a third in poland/czech? Itturi factory in Spain, a forth,

Awesome mindset, lovely humble man, congratulations on honing ur skills maintaining a philosophy of craft and making 👏

I stopped taking him seriously when he said this is a young persons world. What a silly statement, men like this are what's wrong with this world.

Thatcherism equals poverty-stricken uk hole

Hi, I treated the nubuck boots with grease and they became smooth. I wanted to know if this also makes them more robust? especially for rocks and trekking, the others were peeling at the tip, and then it seems to me that they are even softer after having greased them. I also wanted to know is there really no way to get them back to the previous nabbuk version

He didn't even talk about the boot directly but sold me on them... Now i need a pair. Ive been eyeing uo altbergs for a while as I'm wanting a good walking boot for when i walk the dogs, i think these are the ones.

I am confused I bought warrior boot but it looks like the one of left so this is old version and it’s one of most expensive boots you sell?

There is a natural humbleness about his manners. You can tell he is a craftsman who takes pride in his craft.

i need to send you an email please regarding my boot

A big fan. So pleased you've stuck with European manufacture. Keep up the good work.

Lovely video there used to be an old boot maker in maybole Scotland called Dick Goudie he made shepherds boots..

I never knew about the chukka model, and now my search for a pair of size 12's is causing me sleepless nights 😴 I need these in my life - HELP ⁉ And, please tell me if you're ever planning a dealer model 🤔 Brilliant boots, I've worn Peacekeepers for decades, and highly recommend them 👌

I bought a pair of these after watching this video, and to be honest I find them not only uncomfortable, but you will definitely lose volume in your boots, and the foot bed is heavily cushioned with foam on the outer sole area towards your heel, making it feel like you have something in your boots that shouldn't be there. I shelled out nearly £30 for these and took them out after just one outing...so as far as I'm concerned they were a complete waste of money.

Helpful video, thanks, but what should I use to protect the Nubuck cuff part at the top?

And is the spray the repellent or just the conditioner?

I have these boots and they're fantastic. Great video 👍

The music is this video is ridiculous, i can't hear a word

Beautiful story, thanks for sharing!

Nice video. Do you cater for soldiers with wide feet?

Fantastic video! One of the best I've seen on nubuck on youtube!

Could we get a video of your country boots, the barningham boot and the raby boot. Very hard to get any information, reviews or even good pictures or a walk round video

It would be great to have a video of your full range of boots for customers to see in the flesh how they look and compare to each other. I personally am very interested in the Barningham boot but I've only ever seen the image on the altberg website. I love my defenders and peacekeepers but it's time for a change.

You can feel and hear the pride... in the man, of the workmanship, that goes into the boots 👍 on the strength of this video my next boots will be kven.

i went to the factory to be sized up. What a pleasure/experience it was to watch them making peoples boots while i was trying some on. Im proud to own a pair. Thank you for doing what you all do!

Superb and comfortable boots, that rocking sole is genius too.

I wish I had a boss like this guy.

Keep up

At last! A serius video on the matter! Thank you very much sir.

Fascinating to hear the thinking behind the making of this boot!!
