Old Soles Don’t Die – They Just Move to England to be Mated to New Uppers

Thursday, March 15th, 2012

UK boot maker Altberg has mated their popular Jungle Micro upper to the classic Panama sole.

Seen here is the Jungle Micro upper which features a polypropelene graded midsole for underfoot support and protection and Anfibio 2.4mm leather/Cordura construction.

Designed during the height of the Viet Nam war, the Panama tread seen below is designed to release mud but maintain traction on slippery jungle trails.

Available in UK sizes 5 – 11.5
