Materials: leather

Break-in Period: very little
Weight: 2-3/4 pounds

I've had two pairs of Tanarks. They are the most comfortable boots I've had in over 50 years of hiking and mountaineering. I love the feel of the leather lining.

Like other reviewers, I've found that Tanarks were impossible to waterproof and far from durable. Both pairs started to come apart in less than 50 miles. They are just made of too many little pieces sewn together. The black synthetic rand-like bits wear out especially fast.

Too bad! If Lowa had used better materials there and fewer seams to come apart these would absolutely have been five star boots.
