Alaska GTX

Garbage boots. I wore these at most twenty times and the toe box collapsed. Hanwag completely ignored me and the retailer told me to see a shoe repair. They do not stand by their product and when I left a review on Hanwag.ca they deleted it. As I wrote above, these boots are garbage. I bought a pair new, worn at maximum 20 times.

Alaska GTX

Have tried Scarpa, didn't fit well, heel rubs. So went back to Hanwag. Went for Alaska so I could use them in the winter. Used them all over the lakes.

For your foot to flex 'with' the… Full review

They (the Mountains) are beginning to separate so cannot be dependable on the trail. They are still completely usable and are used often 3 season. Why Hanwags? Getting to the summit is an option — getting down is mandatory. They are a piece of my kit that has never failed or let me down. Being of German origin… Full review

Alaska GTX

A nice boot and it gives wonderful support for the ankles. The only unsatisfactory remark I have concerning this boot is when the weather is slippery. In a slippery weather I think boots from LacCosse gives a better foothold. Full review
