Laksen boots

Afternoon all,

Curiosity is getting the better of me and now that my trusty Beretta ferret boots have a small puncture (one that I can't find anywhere) I am looking for a new boot to get borken in before the autumn.

I went to a local retailer today who stocks Aigle and Laksen amongst others. The Lasken boot felt very sturdy, secure and warm around the foot and I could imagine that after a few outings that the leather would become more supple.

I was contemplating a boot with a high rubber rand over the toe, similar to the dovre or the Lowa hunter nut at around the £150 mark the Laksen's seem like a good option.

Their use will range from walking to the shop for a pint of milk to trudging through bogs, woodland, heather, scree, subject to warm summer and cold winters in a high seat. Essentially one boot for everthing. No tall order then?!

Does anyone have any experience with these boots? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

I bought a pair of the pro hunters a couple of years back and haven't wrecked them yet. Nice and sturdy ideal for walking in, mine tend to be out in all but the wettest weather but do 2 miles a day walking the dog plus shooting. They were discounted when I got them and at £75 they were a bargain
 
Al4x1 - looks like the Laksens either aren't too common or are not too popular. We are two of a kind now though. I decided to give them a whirl.

A pair of the Brenner boots - feel great immediately, looking forward to getting them broken in before a Scottish break.

Cheers guys.

+1. I own a pair and wouldn't be without them. Damn good boots. Sure i saw some on ebay recently about £75.
