Altberg Sneeker Mk2 Microlite
Altberg Sneeker Mk2 Microlite
Altbergs legendary Sneeker® Microlite is possibly the most lightweight, all leather military boot ever made. The requirement was for a leather boot that was shock absorbing, lightweight with minimal moisture absorption, as on many tasks it was inevitable that they would get wet inside, so minimal weight gain when wet and fast drying were key requirements. The Sneeker® Microlite has a high unlined leg and after more than 20 years it is still the first choice of many soldiers for selection and training and everyday use.
Altberg Tabbing Tactical Elite Boot
Altberg Tabbing Tactical Elite Boot
Lightweight military tabbing boot based on running shoe technology. Developed in 2008 as a running/high-activity version of the legendary Altberg Sneeker Microlite. The foot shape (last) is AForme, which uses running shoe dynamics and technology. The leg height and shape enhance mobility when running. Underneath the foot, the shock absorption and torsional resistance give good security and foot comfort on footpaths as well as rough terrain. This tactical boot is ideal for high-activity military use.
