Lathrop and Sons Custom Boot Systems continue to surpass my expectations! I have been guiding sheep hunters in Alaska and Idaho for 12 years now. In that time I have tried numerous other boots, but nothing comes close to your Trapper Top GTX. My feet used to blister all the time, but I have yet to get one with your boots. Also, too often boots don’t provide enough support for a sheep hunt, but then others were too stiff for flat surfaces. That is where these boots blow the competition away: Perfect support for the steepest of mountains, but offer enough flex for those long hikes up a drainage, deep into sheep country. I wear these boots for all my hunts, whether it’s for brown bear, moose, or elk. Thanks again guys! I can’t imagine hunting without these boots!

I would like to comment on your boots. I have been wearing the same boots for the last several years, covering many miles of mountains from Spain, US, New Zealand and Mongolia. The boots are comfortable yet very sturdy. I highly recommend you for a great job. Regards.

As the name implies these finely crafted German boots, in our professional opinion, are the epitome of a high country boot. The impressive range of technical components, such as the premium leather upper, Gore-Tex and Gore-Duratherm liners, an over-the-toe abrasion resistant rand, both polyurethane and crepe midsoles, full length nylon shank, and the world renowned Vibram outsole create a formula that has been proven necessary for a boot and foot to excel in a mountain setting.
