I’ve had my alaska gtx for around 7 years now. Absolutely superb boots. They were my first pair of expensive boots so I take the time to dry, clean and wax them after each use. They still look new!
Bonus videos included! Beyond a great boot review! PEW PEWs, owls, vistas, and best of all a "One Mississippi" metal target PING! You got a real quick shot of the elusive beast in it's natural habitat but it turned out hard to see like all the Bigfoot footage that is there now! LOL! Fun video, thanks and stay safe, warm, and healthy.
HAHA! 😂 I am cracking up over here! Thanks for the comment my friend, appreciated! Time for me to get semi serious about a zoom lens 👍🍻
Ive kept mine clean waxed dried slowly worn daily and the leather all over looks perfect, no nicks scratches, all nice and soft and waxy they look new still.
But all around the rand the leathers started splitting wide open and it all looks perished
I've not even had them 1 year i'm so disappointed I expected to get 10 out of them
And ive been using the Exact same wax waterproofer as you.
I even used the same brand leather conditioner to soften the leather up for the first month of use to avoid cracking the leather.
Hanwags are hands down (feet down?) the best boots. Period. I have the Yukon's and will never part with them. I hear you about the the other part of this trip...it's too bad normal. law abiding folk cannot discuss/show it without being bashed for it. Still the best hunting I have done in your neck of the woods.
Hi Craig and thanks for the comment 🍻👍 Yup, best boots on the planet. The hunting out here is unbelievable. Everywhere you look there's beasts LOL. Tons of elk as well. 😁
I also had the squeaky noise from my boot, but after rubbing in some wax, it went away. The leather needs some love, especially if it got fully wet.
Looking good in those boots and nice review. love to wear the used pair:)
looks like the fire in the fireplace was started with the top down routine. ha just bustin on you. those boots look really nice, i am going searching right now. what a beautiful place to live, wide open, aint life grand.
Haha, I noticed that as well and wondered if I should actually relight it before posting, LOL. Awesome boots for sure.👍👍
The boots only crunch because you didn‘t care for the leather. That will happen with any boot with that type and thickness of leather
Hanwag awesome boots lowas are great from the sole up , the soles self destruct on lowas ..hanwag are awesome . I have trapper top gtx . Alverstone gtx . Hanwag sf , all great boots
Hanwag uses Vibram soles, best soles out there 👍👍 thanks for the awesome comment!
@@JimmyMeatwhistle lowa use vibram soles
I bought a pair of low tibets. Perfect condition. I wore them on the side walk to break them in and the sole exposed off the bottom. I think they call it hydrolysis. It apparently only happens on the boots with cemented or glued soles because they were inactive. The foam used on high quality running shoes doesn't do that and while technically doesn't last as long if in continuous use they actually last longer because these explode if you leave then in your closet for 6 months. Now I will only buy Norwegian welted boots
Of course it snowed!😄
Good boot review. Are they pretty light?
Nice hit at the end with the boom stick!
Thanks Ken! They're pretty light. I think you need a pair 😁
@@JimmyMeatwhistle I think I do too!!😁
Nice review! Big fan of Hanwag...No squeaking on mine tho...6 years and counting (Alaskan gtx). I'm curious if the extra leather with wide and longer sizes makes a difference...I typically am an 11 but found a half size down fits well and as the leather tends to stretch out over time...anyway. Love the scenery in your vid...thanks for an awesome review!!
Lowa (Lorenz Wagner) and Han Wag (Hans Wagner) are brothers.
They are made in Croatia now..👍🤷♂️
great review very informative. if you could only have one pair - the Alaska or Tashi - which would you choose? thanks
Hi, and thanks for the comment. For winter, the Alaska, summer, and fall, the Tashi 👍
Does the toebox widen with break-in ? I have the Wide edition and havent started using them yet. Right now the small toe in under a bit of pressure.
Two questions do you think these would work for a big and tall guy 6’7 300 pounds? Also, are you happy with the black or do you wish you would’ve gone with the brown?
Hi, I love the black boots. I picked them because of the quality and it's a wide boot. I'm sure they would work for you. 👍🍺
But but.... I like G-U-N-S! 😂
Me too!
