These Hoffman 6” Classic are a Mountaineer style hiker lineman boot. They features a one piece seamless leather vamp with no stitching to come undone around the foot area. An added rubber rand around the boot protects the upper from abrasion and other wear. A waterproof Sympatec membrane helps keep water while allowing the boot to breath. A solid Vibram sole provides long time wear and a taller heel to accommodate a good gaff fit. Dual shank system provides unsurpassed arch support while climbing. Size 11 1/2. Only worn a handful of times as I needed to buy a bigger size.
