Altberg Defender Combat Boots
Grading Explained
We sell both new and used military goods.
Used items
Used kit comes directly from military surplus and is graded as follows:
- Super Grade — Unissued or unused condition. The item is like new, but may not include its original packaging.
- Grade 1 — Previously issued and lightly used. Fully functional and ready for immediate use.
- Grade 2 — Heavier signs of use. Still serviceable, but may have visible defects such as small rips, stains, or minor damage to zips or fastenings.
New items
All new stock is sourced from suppliers worldwide and arrives factory-new, usually in original packaging.
The Altberg Defender Combat Boots are genuine British Army military-issue boots, built for demanding combat, tactical, and outdoor environments. Manufactured in the UK using premium 2.4mm Anfibio full-grain leather, these boots deliver outstanding durability, comfort, and all-day support across rugged terrain.
Originally developed as a High Liability Combat Boot for the British Armed Forces, the Defender features a breathable Cambrelle® lining, a supportive Tri-Flex® midsole, and a rugged Vibram® or Defender Hi-Traction outsole for exceptional grip in wet, muddy, and rocky conditions.
Whether you're military personnel, security professionals, hikers, bushcrafters, or outdoor enthusiasts, the Altberg Defender offers proven military performance at excellent surplus value.

Care
Clean with lukewarm water and a soft brush, then allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat. Treat the leather regularly with a quality boot wax to maintain water resistance and extend the life of the leather.
