Quick delivery on an excellent product. Very pleased.
The construction of this boot is solid, very comfortable fit for hiking. High quality leather perfect for outdoor use. The colour is as expected and versatile. The size guide enabled me to order the right size.
The quality of materials is top-notch and the craftsmanship is outstanding.
Délais de livraison terriblement long. Plusieurs semaines avant de recevoir mon colis.
Achetées pour mon conjoint, elles sont confortables particulièrement dans les descentes, et sont légères, parfaite pour la randonnée printanière. Couleur selon la description.
Second pair of these, no complaints. Great boots for the price.
Souple et confortable !
Traditional leather boot design but a much faster break in time. The last fits my narrow heel and wide fore-foot nicely. Love the lack of Gore-Tex.
Runs true to size (compared to my Saucony's). Just a few kilometers to getting then feeling really comfy.
This is my second pair of AKU Tribute II LTR boots, so you might gather from that that I do like them! What attracted them to me in the first place was the tradition method of construction, i.e. a one piece full grain leather upper and a soft leather lining. I am not a fan of the modern, so called “Hi tech” boots, with their multiple stitched seams and fabric linings which quickly wears out. The first pair lasted me 4 years of vigorous hiking and the only reason I need to replace them is that the heels have worn down (see photo). This is probably as much due to my gait (dragging my heels!) as to a deficiency with the boot. The uppers are still in perfect condition and they still fit like a glove, as they did right out of the box. The sizing is generous, so no need to order a wide fitting. If I were to fault them at all it would be on the sole. It seems a pity to put a light sole on a such a first class leather upper. However, that is no doubt to keep the boots light weight, which I also appreciate. I might mention that my preferred hiking boots before I found these AKU boots were Lowa Renegade GTX boots, which cost $150 more. They also lasted 4 years, but then fell apart with seams giving way and the heels also disintegrating - hence my preference for one piece leather uppers. I definitely recommend them. As a footnote, since ordering my new boots I have found a local bootmaker who can replace the heels on the old boots for $90. So I now have two pairs; one for Sunday best and the other for grungy hikes!
