Berghaus Blues
Review of Berghaus GR20 GTX by
Miskah
Advantages: very comfortable, all day 3-4 season boot, all terrain, fully laden
Disadvantages: initial outlay is large but they will last for years. no half sizes
.... The footbeds should also be cared of any debris. Mud should be brushed off when dry
Wet boots can be damaged by drying too quickly with too much heat as wet leather cannot tolerate direct heat. After returning from a wet walk, it is a good idea to lift the footbeds out from the inside of your boots and stuff your boots with newspaper. Allow your boots to dry slowly in a cool, airy place away from any direct heat source and never on a radiator
These boots will cost between £85 to £115 depending on where you purchase them, so not only is it worth shopping around, it's also worth taking good care of them.

Review of Peter Storm Women's Skiddaw Leather Boot by
redhotfeet
Advantages: (+)Waterproof, (+) Breathable, (+) Sturdy, (+) Good quality, (+) Well Priced
Disadvantages: (-) Leather boots need taking care of
...I have currently had this type of walking boot for just over a year now. These boots have been my secret success tool to completing my Gold Duke of Edinburgh Expedition. Through camping with snow on top of our tent and under our boots, to soaking wet bogs, springs, rocks, well, most things really! I had a fantastic expedition which was helped by numerous practice hikes with my team, best mate, scouts, the family, my boyfriend, most people got involved really to help me along with my training!
**********Description**********
The boot is made from dark brown real leather as the main boot with softer light brown leather around the top edge. The non-slip sole is made from Vibram. After many hikes and my 85km hike the sole has hardly worn away. Many times I slipped on wet rocks due to the weight of my bag and fell many times...
