Excellent light duty boots

I have about 5 years on these and they are without question an excellent boot. It is very hard to find a non Goretex lined boot these days. I struggle to find a good fitting shoe or boot and these were great almost out of the box. I have used them for upland hunting, teaching bushcraft courses, hiking and some day to day wear. The only criticism I have is that they can not be resoled. Thank you for continuing to have these in your line up. Will buy again.

Good boots, except for a sole issue

These are good boots for fit, comfort and simplicity. But that is all wasted when the sole wears through completely and they can't be re-soled. I first noticed when the bottoms of my feet began to feel damp. I looked at the soles of the boots only to find that the rubber had completely worn off in patches, exposing the foam-like material underneath. Apparently it sucks up moisture into the boot now, and will only degrade further.
I've visited a couple of cobblers in the Toronto area, to be quoted extremely high estimates for resoling - more than the cost of new boots!
Looking on Aku's website I see that these boots are listed as "Non-resolable". Why??? Of all the things to do, this makes no sense. You have an otherwise great boot that is completely wasted because the sole won't last and can't be replaced!
And that just makes it worse - the care, effort and pride that Aku seemed to put into the design, materials and construction of this boot makes the sole's failure sting all the more when the happy owners realize that their great boots are now, effectively, garbage. This really hurts any credibility or name that Aku is looking for, and because it's such a mismatch with the rest of the boot, seems like a blatantly cynical decision to use such a poor sole AND make it un-fixable. I thought outdoors companies were trying to do better these days?
Not to mention Vibram, who advertise their 'eco' cred with some resoling program that is a) not available in Canada and b) not available for these soles.
So why bother?
Answer for potential buyers: Unless they fix the sole issue - "good boots" turns into "good question".

Vibram sole on Men's Tribute II LTR

I have purchased two pairs of the men's Tribute II LTR hiking boots. The boots are very comfortable and the break in period is reasonably short (about 100km). The leather is good quality and if treated well maintains a weatherproof boot as well. Over time they fit like a pair of comfortable slippers and have become my everyday boot. The Vibram sole is very well known and is seen as one on the better quality soles to put on a boot. However, there has been a lot of reviews with slipping when wet or slippery when on wet rock. I haven't experienced this issue in the time I have hiked in wet rocky conditions. Unfortunately, the Vibram sole wears out far too quickly and the Tribute II cannot be resoled effectively. This is also noted on the AKU website for these boots. Sure, there is always a shoe repairer (cobbler) that will attempt to resole them, but they always come apart after a couple of months. I attempted to resole my first pair with many shoe repairers telling me that I had missed the resole timeline and were too worn down to be repaired. I eventually found a shoe repairer that was willing to resole them but the resoles came of within 2 months. I bought a second pair and made sure that I would catch the starting of sole wear and take them straight to a shoe repairer before missing the resole timeline. The shoe repairers looked at the boots and just said that they cannot resole this type of hiking boot because it will come off after a few months without getting the genuine sole from the manufacturers. AKU do not offer a new sole or any resoling services. So I am now left with two pairs of boots with worn soles with not resole replacement service. The Vibram soles lasted me 11 to 12 months of hiking and have been left with looking at other brands of boots with a different sole or that offer resoling services to get more than 1 year out of a pair of boots. To reiterate, the AKU Tribute boot is a great comfortable leather hiking boot, but the Vibram soles are garbage and because of this the boots are not worth buying for 12 months of wear.
