    Got mine from guncity when they had a special going on, don't bother camping and fishing. Pm @Sarvo he does boots for good prices, tbh the Tibets are rather ridged and Sort wish I got a pair with a softer sole, the Lowa Rangers are nice.

    Lowa Camino’s - yes very nice boot.
    I sold a few of them

    Tibets very over rated in my eye and I dont touch any used ones now as so many issues with sole peel

    Same here, bought them once and they literally fell apart first time out. My sister then bought a pair about 12 months ago and the heel came away on one also the first time out, she took them back to H&F and they called her a few days later and just gave her a brand new pair, which promptly started falling apart at the rand also, took those ones back and then came a long battle of her being told she hadn't followed the manufacturers instructions for maintaining them etc (keep in mind here they also started to fall apart first time out) and apart from the rand and front of the sole coming away they were obviously in brand new condition, H&F said it was a manufacturers/importers problem to deal with, and she had no contact from them as they dealt directly with H&F not her, she got fed up in the end and went through the commerce commission to get H&F to give her money back.
    Mine were very comfy, just put together shit.

    Salewa Mountain Trainers, literally like wearing your most comfortable pair of trainers with support, best shoes I have ever owned.

    I've got the leather lined Tibets, they are the nuts. I've never had such amazing boots, great support combined with full ankle articulation - dont know how they do that. They dont slip, every step takes me further than other boots. I can even keep up with young bucks off the forum.
    Get the leather lined ones and you can grease them inside and out with Hubberds.
    Mine came from Austria about 6 hundy
