Buying boots at Limmers

Last week I realized a long time dream and bought shoes at Limmer's shoe store in New Hampshire.


They have been making custom hiking boots for three generations. The current store is run by Peter Limmer(the shoe maker) and Karl who repairs boots for people.

I did not buy custom boots (~$700 and two years wait) instead I bought German made copies of the custom boots, fit by Karl.

The boots are "Lightweights" -- really pretty sturdy by anyone's standards and the model suggested to me by Karl.

I put them to use right away.
