Thread: Hanwag Boots

I have seen a lot of Hanwag fail in the sole peeling
Had even brand new ones fail first tramp too :-(
Mind you some Lowa not much better
Meindl would be my choice new in NZ if prepared to spend 500+

I have heard horror story's of meindls shitting themselves pdq aswell
My lowas are 5 + years old and I'm hard on footwear 6 foot 5 and built like the brick one
Was looking at something a bit lighter on the pocket

Yes - all the mid sole PU system can do it
Fire places in the bush prob responsible for a lot of down the track peels to be honest
But if you want lightweight boots – there not much other choice
I sold a beautiful pair of Meindl other day with stitched on sole – but they weren’t light but going to a farmer so no issues there most day on horse – his soles wont fall off

I walked out of a set of mendls in 8mths a set of Andrews in 5 running crisipi boots on to my second pair 1st 1 did 14mths
