I’ve had a pair for the last 3 years and love them. They’ve held up really well and feel lightweight for how solid they are. I wear a 9 shoe but went for a 8.5 in these.
I just bought one it ll arrive in a day or two and Can t wait to try Them .i was hooked on the design first but now after i watches the video i m in love with it . Thanks a lot
Hi Would you mind making a comparisson/review between these (Hanwag Alaska GTX) and the Hanwag Tatra GTX ? Thanks! P.s. Both come in he "wide" versions, so that's a + for both :)
I'm about to pick a pair up, I can put my fist through the UA Boozemans I bought 5 years ago and run year round in Alberta, whitetail to sheep country. Have put 200km sidehilling since the most recent rip exposing more of the toe. Tried these and the ferraro 2 or whatever. Think I'm going with these for the all around. Maybe I'll grab the others as a spare boot
@dariuszgacek3687 paycheck hasn't agreed since, still in the ferras. But with over 2k km in them now, definitely a great boot but you're going to want to size up if you do alot of sidehilling and down hill, or if there's a EE wide lol
Hey mate, thanks for this review, I've got my pair yesterday and realised that the clamping hooks on booth boots are too tight to run the laces through, is there anything I could do to avoid sending them back and wasting time? My trip to Norway is coming soon and I don't have time doing that. Regards, Florin
Hi Florin! If you are talking about the lace locks at the ankle of the boot. You don't run the laces through, you pull them down in so it locks the lace down. Hope this helps! 👊
@@GOHUNT Correct, run them through as in having to get them in and locked, whereas with both boots the lock lace doesn't hold & lock the lace, is damn hard to do that, (even got my skin pealed on my left index finger), I'd guess is too tight/narrow. Thank you for your time, is much apreciated. Regards, Florin
thanks for including info about the toe box and heel fit. ....but I'm still wondering why this is a "late season" boot, but non-insulated? Why label it a late season then?
Because of it being full leather and pretty burly, this boot tends to run a little bit warmer. Its not going to breathe as well as other boots, so your feet could get hot if worn on early season hunts. Also if you pair it with a thick sock, its a great boot for late September all the way into November. That's why we feel this boot is ideally suited for mid/late season hunts.
The Alaska has a more robust stiffer and more supportive sole and feel overall. The rubber in the sole is stiffer. In my experience, it is much longer lasting, but will require more break in time. It's not insulated, but it feels like it's warmer and thicker through the body of the boot. The Nevada is more flexible, more comfortable out of the box, much easier and almost no break in time. The sole is tackier and the traction is better, especially on wet terrain. The life of the Nevada sole is not as long as the Alaska. The Nevada is a bit lighter in weight too. The fit is similar, although I think the Hanwag is a smidgen less roomy in the toe box. The Crispi has a more volume in the fit, it's a bit better for a med to heavy weight sock for most folks - Trail

How do they perform on slippery roads and slippery rocks?

That's awesome, thank you for shopping with us!! Best of luck this season🔥🔥

awesome boot ive had it 4 days and performed 10 k in them to break them in . awesome comfort and they have a good solid build to them thus far .

This is a nice boot, and I really wanted it to work. I ended up buying the Lowa Ticam II GTX instead. (Here in Canada)
I like Hanwag boots, and they have an option for wide versions, if you have wider forefoot like me.
Hanwag makes great boots!
@@GOHUNT that is true, and the another great manufacturer is the Lundhags. You should try them too if they available in the US.
This must be the only true breakdown of the Hanwag boot on the web! How do you compare this to the Hanwag Ancash II?

Are you ever going to review the salewa Wildfire Edge GTX Mid????
Yes, we do plan on doing a video over the Wildfire Edge GTX Mid.
The midsole fall apart in one and half year. The vibram sole is like new. Not the quality I expected.

How do you initially treat the boot out of the box? Should you wax before use?
I've always used Mink Oil.
First comment and view as always👍👍
Have you had any experience with the fjall extreme? If yes should I get one size bigger?
How to these compare with the Crispy Nevada?
Just bought a pair from you guys. Which crampons would you recommend for this pair of boots?
Would this be suitable for hunting the mountains of Victoria, Australia or to stiff? It doesn't snow where I hunt either so is this too much boot
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.

I have these boots they are warm for a non insulated boot. Seem like a 200g boot as far as warmth wise.
Please let me know how these boots 🥾 compare to the crispi Nevada. Thanks.

For nemo 2p tent video and price
FYI Nike runs 1/2 size small so this boot runs a 1/2 size small as well then.
I know this is 3 years old but, if anyone sees this, whats the difference between this and the Ancash 2? They seem very similar.
Midsole and sole on Ancash 2 like on Scarpa boots.
Ottime
I see you all base "true to size" based on Nike...well Nike is also runs small just FYI.
Nikes run narrow now as well. I can no longer wear them
