• LEDER-GRIS WAS DEVELOPED IN 1994 BY ALTBERG THE YORKSHIRE BOOTMAKERS

• LEDER-GRIS IS A TRADITIONAL WAX OIL THAT MEETS THE NEEDS OF MODERN WATER REPELLENT LEATHERS

• INCREASES WATER REPELLENCY

• KEEPS LEATHER MORE SUPPLE

• SPECIALLY FORMULATED FOR WATER REPELLENT LEATHER

"In the early nineties I started to become unhappy with the water absorbency of the leather we were using on our gamekeeper boots - we were using a WR100 leather (when WR100 leather is flexed in water for 100 minutes and it must not absorb more than 6% of its weight in moisture). We had noted that after 6 months the leather we were using in our gamekeeper boots was absorbing 14% - over twice as much.

"I took the leather and boots to the laboratory in Leeds and the tannery quickly identified the problem - it was not the leather - but the leather treatment!!!

"The gamekeepers had been using a bootcare product which contained a high amount of hydro carbon based solvents (i.e. coal/oil based waxes with paraffins, white spirits etc). These bootcare products had been developed many years previously for leathers tanned in the old way, however, the new water repellent boot leathers were different - and although these bootcare products were acceptable on some leathers - they had a tendency to neutralise the water repellent components tanned into the more modern WR100/Anfibio/Hydro type leathers.

THE HISTORY OF LEDER-GRIS

LEVEL ONE The waxes remain on the surface to increase water repellency.

LEVEL TWO The oil penetrates beneath the surface to help keep the leather supple.

THE BOOT RESOLE SERVICE

"All Altberg boots can be resoled at the factory on the original lasts - the main thing is to keep the uppers in good condition. At our factory in Richmond we see boots which are over ten years old and on their 3rd or 4th resole!!! We also see boots which are less than two years old and beyond repair... The difference is the care of the upper and of course the harshness of the environment in which the boots have been used. "If the boot leather is in good condition then when the time comes the boots will be well worth a resole." "IT'S GOOD ECONOMICALLY...IT'S GOOD ENVIRONMENTALLY...ITS GOOD FOR

COMFORT...WHY BREAK IN A NEW PAIR OF BOOTS?"

MAIL ORDER/ONLINE BOOT FITTING ADVICE

We successfully supply many boots online - internet/mail order is a growing part of the business. There will always be an element of uncertainty about sizing but we have found the following advice works for over 90% of our online customers.

1. Medium/wide feet - go up ½ size on your SHOE size, you'll be wearing thicker socks with boots.

2. Narrow feet - stick with your SHOE size. 3. If you have a history of boot or shoe fitting problems its best NOT to order online.

You'll need to visit the factory for a fitting assessment. Contact the factory in advance - you may need an appointment.
