    Sub $450 boots

    What's out there guys.
    Looking for leather ideally with a full leather rand. For north island Bush and tops.
    May stretch to $500.
    Cheers

    Meindl - IF you know someone in the UK - they will come in at less than $450 landed here. To pricy to buy in NZ.

    Not full leather, but certainly the most comfortable boot I have ever owned. Got about 5 years out of them so far but will need to replace soon with another pair.
    Think they were under $400 at Bivouac before Christmas

    Too many cuts and pieces in that design for my liking. One more place to leak or stitching to come undone. Thanks for the input tho

    I have the Hiker,which I've pretty much worn on the farm everyday for the past 2 years.Nice light boot lasted well.not a lot of ankle support. Had a look at the Mohaka the other day,will probably buy a pair of them as replacments.I think for the $ their pretty good

    I have wide forefoot and I found the Aorangi GRI sport absolutely brilliant. Doesn't have the high rand but for non scree pounding walks is more than ok. It's a high cut boot too and I wear A pair of stoney creek gaiters to preserve them also.

    For mid bush walk hot summer I have a pair of Salomon Goretex GTX boots that when on special at Katmandu are only $250-$300.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and streams, its where life is clear, where the world makes most sense!
