Long lasting or what !!
Gassoon:
Yup, my ancient (1990's?) Alt-bergs are still going strong and waterproof. Not sure they have as much protection by today's standards, though :shrug: Missus got hers same time, not as many miles but hers still look like new!

Had several pairs - last pair they couldn't resole / repair (living up here means perhaps there is a service by calling at shop)
Won't offer the best crash protection....but you can walk miles and miles in them which is great if travelling. The balance works for me, enough protection and one pair of boots per trip.
I'd rather have cool feet and put overboots on in rain (or if say summer in Iceland :roll:)
Ordered a a new pair before COVID struck but sadly as cut and made at factory they've never been started. Not enough space to allow socially distanced working sadly.

"Not enough space ....."
Neither have we, but as key workers - lockdown wouldn't be survivable without a Matslan catalogue - we have to work. Same with my sister, a teacher. All the sticky tape on her school corridors didn't work, and now she's covid+ at 57 years old.
goldstromboy:
Hello......thanks everyone for the input.....I was expecting answers regarding all items of kit but it seems its boots that we all hang on too.....interesting.......
Rusty Nuts:
Our feet don't change size like our waistlines.
