Limmer Boots: Why They Cost So Much (And If They're Worth It)

Limmer Boots might be the most legendary hiking boots you’ve never tried. In this video, I take a close look at Limmer’s history, construction, fit, break-in, and the differences between the Limmer Standard and Limmer Custom. If you’ve ever wondered whether Limmer Boots are worth the money, worth the wait, or possibly the best hiking boots ever made, this is for you. Limmer has been building boots for generations, and there’s a reason these things have such a loyal following. From the one-piece leather upper to the supportive heel pocket, resoleable construction, and old-school approach to bootmaking, there’s a lot going on here. In this video: Limmer Boots history Limmer Standard vs Custom Build quality and materials Break-in and comfort Who each boot is actually for Why Limmer has such a cult following This video was made in collaboration with Michael from The Iron Snail, so after this one, go check out his video for the other side of the story. If you own a pair of Limmers, let me know which model you have and how they’ve held up.
