    old-fashioned hiking boots

    I have bought a pair of Meindl boots last year. They are more or less old school, and cost about 200 Euros. I have worn them for one Winter and are very satisfied with them. Here is a link to their site, and the boots that I bought. http://www.meindl.de/english/index.html

    My Father turned 18 in 1937 and said that time were not all that bad, but they were not all that great either. About the same today if you ask me.
