Description

A fundamental component within the Austrian Army boot repertoire, these robust alpine boots, crafted for the Bundesheer by a consortium of skilled manufacturers, undeniably possess one of the most esteemed lineages in the realm of alpine warfare.

They strike a remarkable equilibrium between classic boot design and sturdiness, incorporating contemporary elements such as swift lacing mechanisms that enhance their versatility.

Internally, these boots boast a lavish interior entirely swathed in top-tier, glove-like leather, while their external shell is fashioned from a resilient full-grain cowhide. Austrian boots have garnered a reputation for enduring multiple deployments, whether passed on to the succeeding cohort of trainees or, due to recent legislative alterations, carried home as cherished mementos by their wearers.

Features:

  • Hook Grommets
  • Constructed from 2mm thick leather, featuring full-grain cowhide
  • Insulated tan leather lining envelops the entire throat
  • A fully gusseted tongue
  • Partially perforated ankle vents allow perspiration to escape while preserving the internal environment
  • Padded Collar
  • Ranging from 10 to 11 inches in height, providing comprehensive ankle support and coverage
  • A reinforced toe cap
  • Equipped with 4 rows of D-rings and 4 or 5 rows of hook-style speed lacing grommets

 

Sizing: UK shoe sizes are the same as NZ/AU. Some of these boots have a narrow sole - if you typically fit a 'wide' sole boot, you will not fit these. For more information on sizing, visit our sizing guide and scroll to the shoe section
Weight: 2.4kg (approx)
Colour: Black
Condition: Used/Very Good - Item has clearly had some use. There may be marks and signs of wear, but still lot's of life left. If you want more information on our condition ratings, check out our condition guide

*Note* We have two slightly different styles, where the fastening system differs at the ankle hook offset. Orders will be picked at random.

    Boots

    Great boots. First time buyer from here. These things fit very well and still have a tonne of life in em. Of course, you need to get new insoles and wear decent socks, but overall its very solid.

    Great boots, accurate description

    Very accurate description on the condition, but great value for money none-the-less. With a good clean, some leather conditioner and polish, and new insoles they're basically new, but already broken in.

    I had to take a hammer and screwdriver to some of the fast lace hooks to either close them or open them up, but it was easy enough.

    They are definitely a a narrow fit. I have quite wide, short feet, and strictly speaking should be a size UK 4. I bought a size UK 7 and they fit my feet perfectly, though with a lot of room at the toe. They are very comfortable.

    When I took them to the cobbler and he said they should last decades, 50+ years, with the right care, so I am very, very happy, and now have a very, very jealous brother.

    Awesome boots

    Excellent Quality boots, mine were already had a fair bit of use but still have plenty of tread on em, my boots are a little smaller then I usually get but are still comfortable to wear over walking a fair distance, overall highly recommended, European boots have never done me wrong.
