Altberg "MOD Regulation" Brown boots

[widu13]

Hi All,

I've just learned from Survival Aids/Cadet Direct via twitter (@CadetDirectLtd) that the new brown MOD boots are about to be retailed.

Dunno, about "MOD" brown but they look a nice "Bushcraft" brown!

How much will they be?

 

[widu13]

I understand the rumour is that they will either be at the same price as the black ones or close to it. Brown is the new black apparently!

Yes, it's a better match for the MTP/Multicam BDUs.

Nice - wish I could try a pair on!

So want the 'sneaker' boots. Only 528gram for my size!!! Wow thats like a pair of trainers...

 

[abominable_scouse_monster]

And yet again no size 14's, you would think that they would make work boot's in sizes like that.

Altberg make very good boots.

Altberg make very good boots.

Aye, I love my black ones, enough that I don't feel the need for a pair of browns..... although the 'sneakers' are tempting for the summer (what we get of one).

Christ, they're hideous!!!!

look very similar to the Jack Pyke boots the son in law has, nice to see brown back in the boot market.

 

[Twodogs]

Good it will mean more cheap black boots

or in town. Brown shoes stickily country wear, along with tweed and whip cords.

Brown shoes/boots may be worn when out and about in town at weekends. Along with red cords and tweed blazers.

At three times the price they should be :yelrotflm

They (Altberg) do look nice though Go very well with a wax jacket and nice baseball cap

Nice, but sadly my budget will not stretch to that kind of boot. I make do with the Hi-Tec Magnum boots that I get for work. My employers give me £50 a year towards footwear so I just use last years hardly worn boots for gading about on the brown or grassy stuff.

Can you not get your employer to let you chip in the extra? if its ppe they should allow you to do this and pay the rest not including the VAT, we do it for our guys!
