I have been using danner frontiers for years. Long out of production I have picked up some off ebay used. The first pair of 8 inch 400 gram boots I bought 15 years ago and the gortex liner is long wore out and the stitching has even been fixed, I wear these if I know its going to be dry weather and condiditnos. I bought 2 6" frontiers and the problem I have had with those is the sole comes on unglued, the bottom tread just peels totally of!!!
I prefer boots that are built kinda old school. what is out there? looked at alico, but it looks like I can't get them in my size. what else is out there? I have 2 pairs of the 8 inch 400 gram danners, the old ones and some newer ones I bought used. Those are my colder weather boots. However I need a 6" hiker for weather that is warmer. ie above 55-60 degrees.
