Nice video Ted! I have a pair of Tatras also, absolutely bombproof. I had a similar problem too though with the footbeds. I had to change the footbeds after a couple of uses just as Hanwag's own footbeds lacked arch support and cushioning.
+Nathan McGonnell yeah, I think that’s a wise decision, after I changed they have just gotten better and better! Now I’m having some wear and tear at the front but they’ll last for a bit longer! :) I’ll make a new video once I decide to change them and then you’ll see the condition they’re in at that time! Again, thanks for all your comments, it means a lot to me!
TedWeirum Awesome man, sounds good! Looking forward to the next video!
+Nathan McGonnell thank you! I think the next one is gonna not to be a bit different, we’ll see! :)
Strange, I have 12 year old insoles still going strong.
That frosted flakes sponsor 🔥🔥🔥🐐
Nice vid!! Got them today
Thank you! Hope you’ll like them!
I loved Tatras as soon as I saw them online. When I held them I loved them even more.
Then I tried them on... and it was all over. For me, they are simply unwearable for longer period of time by any means - and I tried regular, wide and bunion.
Ended up with Alaskas that I disliked with passion designwise :)
My point - go out, find store, try your wannabe boots on!
That is the most important thing to do because your feet just don't give a *** about what you like.
what happened? they didn't fit or?
Yup.
I feel like Tatras are build slightly more narrower than most boots.
My foot is wider in the front part behind toes, but I felt compressed even in the wide version of Tatras. Also I had feeling the toebox is slighlty curved inwards.
As soon as I slipped into regular Hanwag Alaska GTX I felt like in wide Tatras, but much more comfortable due to different inner boot shape.
Took Hanwag wide Alaska GTX at the end and it fits like a glove.
But don't get me wrong! That is nothing against Tatras at all!
Hanwag build quality and materials are superb. I just wanted to point out that even if you like some model of boot, it simply may not be the right one for you. Because of your foot shape.
Also, I read opinions in conversation below about leather/gtx lining preferences and wanted to add my 2p in.
Leather lining doesn't like constant changes of humidity. If your feet sweat a lot or you're getting your boots wet regulary you might be better off with gtx.
The leather will eventualy (even if cared for properly) turn hard and generate cracks.
I don't like membranes personally (wax on shoes+clothes all day), but prefer gtx anyway because it can deal with wet conditions better than leather.
Yup. Everyone's feet are different. I tried them on and I had to buy because I couldn't imagine a better fit.
Thanks for this review Ted! I am planning to go for the West Highland Way in May 2018. Does the Tatra provide enough stability for backpacking with a heavier pack?
Thanks for watching! They do, I carried a bag with about 25-27 kgs through the mountains with these boots, it worked great, just remember to stop and take them of as I say in the video! Good luck on your trip! 😊
Hanwag Tatra II are like a Mercedes car! Luxury, stable, however heavy but non slip secure steps! Not the boots I would use for a 50 mile hike, but for shorter hikes and mountain adventures, nothing compares to Hanwag!! You can tell the high quality, from the first moment you try them out! For people, that want to upgrade to a better (thicker) insole, chose a half or 1 size bigger than your normal. I recommendhalf size up, so that you can use thicker socks, for more comfort!! I went 1 size up and got the wide version, that way, I can use thicker socks and insoles, to improve them even fearther! PS The only downside, is the thin insoles they come with.Other than that, probably the BEST mountain boots out there! Really high quality!!
true on all points! :)
What do you mean with taking insoles a size up? Do insoles size 10 fit in shoes size 9?
@@vornamenachname7862 "I recommend half size up (mean boot), so that you can use thicker socks, for more comfort!! " That's what I said. Hanwag Tatra II, come kind of narrow and their insoles are the worst I've ever had on any shoe. Add to that, the fact that those boots are very stiff and heavy. I got half size larger boot and added a better insole. That way, you can also use thicker trekking socks and for those boots, it makes a huge difference.
Great video! Do you use the same shoes in the summer?
Arber Baqaj thanks a lot! I usually wear these boots all year round but it depends on where I'm going and how much weight I got on my back. Heavier pack requires more stability. A shorter hike in a dry environment with a lighter pack= running shoes :)
Good video. Would you say that tatra is a light, medium or heavy boot? / Krister
It’s on the Mardini heavy side I’d say!
Love you videos they are alot of help wanted to know what is the name of the gloves you have on?
Thank you! :) the name of the gloves: hestra fält guide
Google and you shall find! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for replying
I just subscribed to your channel recently. It really is amazing how many European people speak excellent English.
I live in Norway and it's ridiculous. I'm never gonna be a fluent Norsk speaker because all the locals hate my "baby talk" and switch to English.
Could you imagine we leave our cages hundred years ago too...
Hello, can you give recommendations on how to dry boots. Is it fine if you dry the boots next to the woodfire? Is there any differences between gore tex and leather boots in the drying aspect?
Hey! Leather and rubber will melt if you keep the boots to close to the fire, be very careful when if you want to dry them like that. If you’re out a good way to dry them is to put them in a place where the air circulation is good. The gore text membrane is a bit harder to dry out. :)
Put screwed up paper inside and change it regularly. Never force dry them next to a heat source or in the sun.
I had my pair for over 2000km so far, once re-soled. Never had a blister or any problems with them. Panic-bought a new pair as it is almost impossible to find them in my size few days ago. The leather feels a lot stiffer than on the old ones when i got them first, and i was disappointed to get a pair without the locking eyelets. We'll see how they are when they are broken in
Yeah, it’s a great pair of boots! :) thanks for your input brother!
How is the resoling process? Do you have to ship them to Hanwag?
Yeah, I believe you can find how it’s done on their website :)
Hej Ted,, ta mig tusan att du genom Fjällräven hade en koppling till mina nya kängor, visste inte innan men så nu efter inköp. :o) På fötterna framöver sitter ett par Hanwag Tashi, vad är din tagning på dessa kängor så här nu innan skoskavet.. ;o)
Har faktiskt inte provat just dom, men jag förutsätter att du testat dom i butik innan köp? Generellt så gillar jag verkligen sättet Hanwag gör sina kängor på, enorm erfarenhet med matchande kvalitet. Om du hittar rätt känga för ditt ändamål så tror jag att du kommer bli supernöjd!
I was looking at the Tatras, but went with the Grunten instead. I got it in a leather lined (not goretex) model, because I find Goretex boots end up just making your feet wet from sweat and take so long to dry out (the liners never last very long and become very much useless... At least in my experience.).. and I prefer boots that can be resoled. The "stitch down" construction. I find the ones that are cemented on also tend to fall off.. In my experiences :P
The Gruntens are also my first Hanwags so maybe they are better than the others (Danners and Lowas haven't treated me too well so far).
Hey! I still what you mean with the goretex! The tatras can be resoled! I still use mine till this day but the sole is starting to come of in the front! Let me know how your shoes hold up after some time! Good luck friend!
@@TedWeirum I am using my Tatras 7 years now. I have mine resoled after 6 years (cause i forget them totaly wet on sun :/) They are still Great :)
Nice to hear man! I still have mine to this day! I’ll wait a bit more before having them resoled! Thanks for watching!
Had my Tatra GTX for 12+ years, recently resoled with Hanwag Vibram soles and still going strong. No issues with the Gortex but my feet don't sweat that much. Good quality wool based socks are a must.
Awesome to hear! :)
So how have those boots faired in hot and humid weather? Do you have issues with your feet getting sweaty in those boots?
They do get warm, but changing socks regularly during the hike will keep your feet fresh and dry! It’s always nice to stop and let your feet breath for a while!
Which Fjallraven jacket is that
ewak ferguson its called Keb eco shell, I'll do a separate video about it soon!
Got any tips for solid hiking pants and jacket like the ones you are wearing in this video?
That’s pretty much what this channel is built on brother, feel free to check around! :)
@@TedWeirum you are lightning fast my man 💪🏼 can you buy the superfeet trailblazers and just throw them in the boots for added comfort?
@MagnusFXT yes! And yezzzz! ;)
@@TedWeirum got yourself a new sub. Loving your content already!!
@MagnusFXT most welcome brother! :)
Tips put vaseline on your feet on areas that might run. Use good socks, I Iike Bridgedale, merino wool. Wool socks don't get as smelly as synthetic ones 😉
Thanks again brother! :)
Hej! Jag tänkte höra, hur väl anpassade skulle du säga att Hanweg Tatra är för att gå Kungsleden? :) Tänkte gå hela med relativt tung packning, men jag är väldigt osäker på vilken typ/vilken känga jag behöver om du har några tips! :)
Tack på förhand, grym kanal! :)
+Markus Sallkvist Tack Markus! Jag har själv gått både upp för Kebnekaise samt abisko nikkaloukta med dessa kängorna, för mig fungerade dom utmärkt! Vilken tid på året tänkte du gå? Tack för att du tittar! :)
Smutt! Då klipper jag nog ett par! Leva på rea så att säga haha :D men kör du något mer än vax på skorna? Tänker vissa kör med någon spray också :> vad tyckte du om Abisko->niko vandringen? :)
Jag tänkte gå sista veckan i Juli :)
Tack själv för tipsen!
+Markus Sallkvist gör så! Nej, jag kör bara vax, kolla med naturkompaniet, dom har bra vax! Abisko nikka var bland det bästa jag gjort, gjorde den solo, gå helt ensam i midnattssolens land är något helt unikt! Du kommer älska det, det är förenat med utmaningar men det är allt som är värt att göra! God tur! :)
Härligt nu blir man ju mer taggad! :D Tack! Lycka till med Kanalen! :)
+Markus Sallkvist tack Markus! :)
Super feet ! Good tip.
They are great! Thanks for watching this old video! Hope you can see a bit of difference! :) still use the same boots though!
This new model of Tatra II is really downgrade from the older Tatra II. Taking out the pair of locking hooks was really bad move and made these boots just plain ordinary, you just cant get perfect adjustment without those.
The new ones has the locking hooks no? This video is old and I’d say these are the older generation.. :)
@@TedWeirum yup, the new ones are really a downgrade. Shame that hanwag is starting to make bad just for sell designs.
I'll take a closer look at them, you mean the ones in the sort of bottom of the lacing right?
@@TedWeirum yes the little wider pair of hooks, usually third or fourth ones from the top. These make it possible to have different tightnesses on ankle and foot.
Do you have instagram? Maybe we can send some photos there?
music too loud, voice too low volume. garbage tier.
+TheHendric85 what do you mean garbage tier? A lot has happened since, thanks for the feedback though! Look at the latest one and tell me what you think! :)
so basically, my problem was that whenever there was music only, it was stupidly loud, and i had to keep adjusting the volume all the time, because when you started talking, it became really quiet.
how are the boots holding up by the way? what was the coldest temperature when you used them?
+TheHendric85 Ok! I'm still using the same boots today, they are still holding up good! Coldest I'd say would be around -17 degrees Celsius, but then I had 2 pairs of sock on! It was cold and they are not meant for that kind of use but it actually still worked! Thanks for your feedback again, I'll see if I can adjust it now with some UA-cam magic!
I actually used mine for 2 Years in daily army duty now, and used them last vacation trip in north sweden.
Its been around -20 to -25 and been stomping through the deepest snow possible, hiked through the woods still had them constantly covered by snow and cold temperature and they've held up amazingly well.
Tatra gtx wide are my alltime favourite
My story is just like yours! 😊
