never mind at least the importers of hanwag have had the insight to make the sole units available to resole.......cost approx. 70 to 80 bucks I think this is bloody reasonable......the triglavs have a alpha cellulose midsole......dunno wat the fuck this is exactly but is said to be very stable..............I turned down the gronell stelvios only because I wanted a multi purpose boot and for me a stiff boot like the stelvio is more suited to high country and not really bush stalking.......well that's my thoughts anyhow everyone likes something different.....may look at some in a few years once the shock of how much these have cost has been forgotten by the wife.....lol.............

I just liked the look and feel of them haha. Did no research whatsoever
