The 5531 Firtree Hiking Boots are probably the best hiking boots you can find at this price. The 5531 is made in Europe and is designed for hiking in northern climates, but is suitable for anyone who enjoys an active lifestyle, whatever the weather. They are made of waterproof genuine nubuck leather and the inner lining is a 4-layer sock-like TOPAZ membrane that ensures water resistance and breathability. The boots have a 2-layer Vibram sole that is suitable for movement on both soft and hard ground. If you're not familiar with Vibram, it's like a Porsche or a Ferrari, depending on your preference in hiking footwear. The shoes have an anatomical, antibacterial and washable liner. The 5531 hiking boots are made in Europe to the NATO AQAP 2110 standard, in the same factory that produces one of the legendary army boots, the M77. The same factory, Samelin, has been producing hiking boots for over 20 years and is known to many as a manufacturer of high quality hiking boots.
