ULTRA-LIGHTWEIGHT, ALL LEATHER MILITARY TABBING BOOT

Description

Altbergs legendary Sneeker® Microlite is possibly the most lightweight, all leather military boot ever made. 

 Developed in 1997 with input and help of serving soldiers based in Catterick Garrison and other military bases around the UK. The input from many of the NCO’s involved in training and developing the skills and endurance of young recruits drove this development. As bootmakers we listened and tried to interpret their requirements. 

The requirement was for a leather boot that was shock absorbing, lightweight with minimal moisture absorption, as on many tasks it was inevitable that they would get wet inside, so minimal weight gain when wet and fast drying were key requirements. 

The Sneeker® Microlite has a high unlined leg and after more than 20 years it is still the first choice of many soldiers for selection and training and everyday use. 

NOTE: With soft leather boots - follow the instructions in the Altberg bootcare user guide. For bootcare advice, please see videos on Drying Out Leather Boots, Treatment for Water Repellent Boots and Getting a High Shine

Size & fitting advice

For medium or wide fitting boots, we suggest that you go up ½ a size on your usual shoe size - this works ok in 80% of cases and allows for a thicker sock to be used with the boots. The following 3 widths - XN, N, XW, may be specially ordered from the factory. However, for special orders a factory visit may be required for foot measuring and trying on.
