User Review: Alpine Design Hiking Boots

Reviewed November 14, 2008 by S. Green

Rating:
Materials: leather
Use: short day hikes
Break-in Period: not needed, soft from start
Weight: about 2 lbs for the pair
Price Paid: about $60

Looked good and price seem reasonable when I bought them on a trip in California 6 months ago. It's a brand name that I have known of for over 30 years here in Colorado where I live. However, I did not realize that this is no longer the same company.

I used the boots maybe 8 separate days and walked maybe 15 total miles in them before the main seam on the left boot completely came apart. There is a big hole where the stitching used to be. The boots would be OK if not for the garbage seam.

The boots are of a waste of money IMO and whoever is currently making them is deceiving their customers by using a well known established brand name and giving zero customer support. I have found zero way to contact the manufacturer or importer. Would never buy an Alpine Design product again.
