Altberg Mallerstang Walking Boot
The Altberg Mallerstang is a superb classic leather mountain walking boot. The fitting and comfort are excellent. The leather is a 2.8mm full grain cullate Anfibio - and the boot will take a flexible walking crampon but not a rigid climbing crampon. The sole is Vibram - deep cleated for enhanced traction with a PU shock absorbing mid layer.
The Tri-Flex midsole is an Alt-Berg design and is only used in Alt-Berg boots. All boots are built on the midsole - it is the foundation of the boot. The midsole controls the underfoot support, the toe spring and the flex of the boot. The Tri-Flex Midsole uses a unique three dimensional insole design with an N.C. controlled polymer nylon mix to achieve the optimum flex for different categories of boots. Good bootmaking starts with the midsole - customers can't see it, it is built into the boot - but it is the most important component of the boot and it makes a huge difference to how the boot feels and performs in wear.
