These Boots Were Made for Hiking

Today I received my new pair of beautifully crafted hiking boots by the Limmer Boot Co.. Limmer & Sons has been making boots since 1919 and are dedicated to making sure that feet are extremely happy on and off the trail. And while I've only been wearing mine for a little over 4 hours, I can certainly see them becoming a permanent fixture on my feet.

These have to be the beefiest boots I have ever worn, and to think that the version I purchased are the Light-Weight series, I cannot imagine what the Standard boots feel like. The craftsmanship is amazing and they make boots manufactured in China look like toys. The leather is so stiff that there is a 80 to 100 mile break in period. Those are going to be the best and worst 80 to 100 miles of my hiking career. But once that period is over, these boots will be made for hiking and hiking is what I plan on doing. I've got big dreams, in fact 42 of them and I hope these boots see the tops of all of them (Adirondack 46 high peaks, I've finished 4). So if you see me limping around, you can conclude that I haven't quiet reached the end of the break in period.

Here's to everyone bagin' a peak at least once in there life!
