I never knew there were so many ways to tie your laces, personally I use a normal bow with an extra half hitch on top, never comes undone. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (John ZZZ) http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/sreply/123590 Sat, 21 Jan 2006 12:54:49 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Berghaus boots ]]> http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/reply/123583/t/Berghaus-boots.html#reply-123583 Goretex is a relatively thin PTFE based membrane sanwiched between layers of fabric. It's always had abrasion resistance issues (hence reinforced shoulders on many climbing and walking jackets) and the major stresses encountered in boots, especially creasing, will make relatively short work of the membrane.

Goretex also benefits from being washed and having a new DWR finish applied.

Nick, what ''model'' LOWA boot do you have? Is it the high ankle one (i think it is called the combat?)

Unless it's appalling wet I wear walking boots and gaiters for all my work, and it tend to be between 5 and 10 miles a day and 4 to 5 days a week for a couple of months at a time.

As a result of this intensive "field-testing" I've reached certain conclusions about boots. They are:-
