DESCRIPTION
The style of Kisdon is Nordic/Alpine, i.e. one piece of leather with minimal stitching of the upper. The boot has excellent foot and ankle support and although lightweight the Vibram sole gives good grip on a wide variety of terrain and conditions. The Kisdon is in the mountain boot category. However, it is still a very good boot for walking in Dales and hills. The Kisdon boot is part of Altbergs ‘GFit’ range for wider feet with above average volume. The boot is made from top quality 2.6mm Nubuck which will adapt to footshape. Nubuck leather is more breathable in summer. However, if your priority is waterproofing then the Nubuck can be treated with Leder-Gris wax oil. This will make the Nubuck more waterproof, similar to anfibio leather, note the change in appearance of the Nubuck is irreversible. See notes in the Nubuck User Guide or click on the user guide logo.
*PLEASE NOTE THE KISDON WILL BE CHANGING TO FULL GRAIN LEATHER DURING 2023*
NOTE: With Nubuck boots there is a choice of bootcare options - pay extra special attention to the instructions options in the Altberg Nubuck User Guide. Please also see videos on Drying Out Leather Boots and Nubuck Treatment Options.
