I know it was covered some time ago, (12 years) but am interested in opinions on current leather walking boots. My last pair, (Brashers) were great but are no longer made. I am not interested in the modern textile boots.
I go through a pair of walking boots in about 18 months.The soles wear out and every make I've tried fall apart.I currently have a very comfortable pair of Brashers which were 130 quid from memory.Interested in the Altberbs lasting so long.I wear them twice a day everyday to walk the dogs so they do some miles.

Surprised no one has mentioned Meindle boots. Many different models to suit most people. Very popular with professional users who do a lot of walking each day.
Top ones for me are Douvre plus and Glockner if you prefer a shorter boot. The island is well thought of but one I have not tried yet.
They also make military Boots, and chainsaw boots (woodwalker),which you can also walk in all day.

If you need them for quasi-tactical purposes then Altbergs might be appropriate, but if you want them for walking modern textile boots will out perform them comfortably.
Just compare the weights.
