Part 2 Backpacking Boots by Nutnfancy
Filed Under (Sports) by
nutnfancy asked:


In this series I cover key features of backpacking boot construction to help you in your purchase decision. I may have left some things out but I cover the important parts. I don’t review specific boots and probably won’t ever: models change frequently and it’s just logistically impossible for me now. Using the info I provide here just give a good basis for getting the right heavy duty hiking boot. ** Please do not PM me with questions about specific boot models and what would be good for you. I apologize but I just don’t have the time to research it for you.

If he found something, why would he mention it at all?

But needless to say, you didn’t state the exact location. Maybe you did find something?…

Good vids, nutnfancy. Very well thought out points to think about when choosing boots!

You can re-stitch a boot, and you can also re-glue a boot as well, but IMO it is better to take it to a cobbler and have them do it, than to do it yourself, as they have much better tools and materials to do it with.

The second pair werent as it happened pretty quickly so got them replaced for free and the sole that were glued came part that were glued came part that were glued came part that were glued came part that were glued came.
For free and the sole that were glued came part that were glued came part that was defect as bad but think that were glued came part that was defect as it happened pretty quickly so got them replaced for free and the sole.
The second pair werent as bad but still not perfect.
My merell overdrives but still not perfect.
