Pivetta D.M.C.
Pivetta is no longer in business, and the D.M.C. has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best hiking boots for 2024.
Best I've ever had, and since they don't make them anymore I guess the best I will ever have... I have had mine for 20+ years and they fit like a glove.
I thought I hit gold one day when I ran accross an old pair I found in a box after my father passed away. They are in brand new shape, never ever waterproofed and leather is still a light tan. Vibram screwed soles and all. I would guess 1980 era +-, nice boots just too small for me. They are men's size 10.
Thought I'd post this on this site to make everyone envy!!! Ha!
Truthfully though, they need a good home... A premimum score, especially since they are no longer made.

I bought these boots in 1974 for the AT and I am still backpacking in them. They are a great boot. In a moment of weakness, I went to REI and tried on a pair of lighter weight boots, but I couldn't bring myself to buy them. I'll wear my Pivettas to the grave!
