Alpina Triglav
The Triglav has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best backpacking boots for 2024.
Really something perfect...okay, they're a bit heavy (1,8 kg each) therefore undestroyable. As I live in a region where snow, ice, and sub-zero temperatures are dominating for cca 6 months, Triglav is really something I don't leave home without. After three years of use, they still look like they are new. Also, a fact that you can put spikes or skis on them is an advantage. General overview would be :-)))
P.S. Sorry for my English as I'm not a native speaker :-(

These are really solid boots. I've treated them with SnoSeal before I discovered NikWax (preferred) and they are as dry as can be. Crampons attach very solid and they have a very stiff sole. A very minor complaint would be that the laces provided are a bit too big for the speed hooks, but that could easily be solved with new laces. An excellent pair of boots!
