What type of boots does Altberg make?

The company is widely respected across the U.K. and is even trusted by the military to provide protective, safe boots worn by soldiers. You can find both new and pre-worn Altberg boots on eBay.

Do motorcycle boots fit the same as walking/military boots?

In length and width, motorcycle boots fit exactly like walking or military boots. However, most motorcycle boots fit around the calf of the rider. It's important for boot buyers to know exactly how a boot will fit around their calves when shopping online. Measure the widest part of the calf muscle to determine the proper fit. If needed, buyers can choose boot options with wide calf openings.

Motorcycle riders worried about how the boots will fit around their calf muscles can also opt for boots with zippers. Side zippers allow leather boots to stretch and are often a great choice for riders who find tall, traditional boots uncomfortable or too tight. It's also vital to choose motorcycle boots that meet the criteria for the category. If the boots are not appropriate for motorcycle riding, it could put the rider's foot at risk of injury.

Does Altberg offer U.K. military-issued boots?

Not all military boots are authorised for wear by the U.K. military. If shopping for men's or ladies’ footwear that will be worn as authorised military boots, it's important to check for accreditation. Altberg is committed to providing soldiers with approved footwear options. When shopping online, choose boots that are U.K.-military approved. The most common brand of Altberg boots worn by soldiers is the "Defender series," which is available in men's and women's sizes and widths.

Are Altberg boots available in women's and men's sizes?

Yes, Altberg makes boots in every category available in men's and women's sizes. Women can choose sizes specific to the anatomy of their bodies. Both men and women can also choose from regular or wide widths. Most high-quality Altberg boots are true to size, which means men and women can choose their typical shoe size.
