The Base boot is a new development in the Altberg range, developed based on feedback from local soldiers. The Base boot is an ankle height boot designed for uses ranging for barrack use, to light weight exercise and rapid deployment. The upper is made from first grade bovine suede with 1000 denier cordura inserts for increased breathability. The sole is Vibram Masai with a micro midlayer for shock absorption and cushioning, with a graded midsole to give good torsional stability so that support is not compromised.
