Shoes bought at the end of February. Used mainly for longer walks and once I took them on a camping trip. Never got wet. Yesterday, during a walk with my dog, I had the impression that something was in my shoe or that my sock was bunching up. It turned out that the lining/membrane had come off almost completely above the toes in the right shoe, and the same thing is starting to happen in the left one. At this price, it’s a bit embarrassing for such things to happen. Shoes half the price never gave me such problems, and I’ve used them for 4-5 years and sometimes still do. In the coming days, I’m going to file a complaint.

Cordura is a material woven from durable nylon fibers, developed by DuPont. The structure of the material provides lightness and abrasion resistance, as well as weather resistance. Due to its properties, Cordura is widely used in tactical equipment.
Gore-Tex is a thin membrane made of polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), which features a microporous structure. Its structure makes it highly water- and wind-resistant, as well as breathable. The membrane's pores are 700 times larger than a molecule of water vapor, which allows it to efficiently wick moisture to the outside. Gore-Tex is widely used in the production of outdoor clothing and footwear.
Vibram Vanguard is a type of rubber outsole equipped with a special tread design, resistant to abrasion. It features anti-slip properties, thermal protection against contact with both hot and cold ground and petroleum substances. It provides support for the foot, relieving pressure on the forefoot and heel with a dual-density cushioning midsole.
Poron is an ultra-thin microporous polyurethane foam with very good cushioning and energy absorbing properties. Due to its characteristics and flexible structure, it works well as a filling in footwear to wrap around the ankle and protect it from injury and strain, absorbing any impact, shock and vibration.

I have worn them through a second winter/early spring and they haven’t developed any faults. I used Lowas spray and cream to waterproof them and there were no leaks at all. I bought Zephyrs for warmer seasons and basically I’m 'covered' for the whole year. I’m also considering getting Lowas low shoes to wear in the summer.

The shoes look better in person than in the photos. Comfortable from the first try-on. In the photos, the toes and heels look gray, but in reality they are darker and match the leather color. All the stitching is perfectly even, I didn't find any loose threads. Even the internal tags are sewn perfectly straight. For waterproofing, I used Lowa Water Stop ECO. The leather color got a bit darker. I usually wear shoes in size 40/41, depending on the brand. I bought these in size 42 and they fit perfectly, with a bit of room for thicker socks. Shoes in size 42 weigh 1526 grams.

Very well-made shoes. Comfortable from the first time you put them on, and they look great. The price is quite high, but for such quality, I really think it's worth it.

I got these shoes for Christmas and I have to say, they are absolutely top-notch among the five hunting models I know—super comfortable and really solidly made. I sincerely recommend them to everyone.

The shoes are really comfortable. The price is high—I hesitated for a long time, but I don't regret spending a single zloty on this product. They are lightweight, the workmanship quality is very good—there's nothing to complain about. They have reinforcements on the toe and heel, soft, and after waterproofing they perform excellently in the rain.
