In 1989 Altberg started making leather hiking boots in the classic English style, padded ankle cuff, full grain leather and strong sole support. The Fremington Men is the second generation of the Altberg classic walking boots and it has remained virtually unchanged for the past 15 years. It is Altberg's best selling walking boot in 5 width fittings and it uses water repellent full grain Anfibio leather, backed up by a Sympatex® waterproof lining. The sole is Vibram® with good stiffness and support on rough terrain. Ideal for English hills, Dales and lower lever Lakeland walks and hikes.
The Fremmington boot has recently been awarded top marks and named as a 'favourite' in BBC Countryfile Magazine -Find out more.
