    I have used Skellerup Hiker boots since they were introduced,must be 15 years ago at least. Slippery as hell in creekbeds and wet rocks...but what isn`t.

    Agree with scotty that they`re a narrow-fitting boot and fairly lightweight construction.Not so suitable for big solid guys,the d-rings/speedhooks can rip out if over stressed.

    I like `em for hunting,possuming and spraying in dry steep country.Very grippy on dry rocky loose ground. Wearing them for work 3-4 days a week I get about 18 months-2 years out of a pair. When full-time goat shooting I cut out a pair every 9 months!

    A popular boot in my neck of the woods...worth giving them a try.
