Built for tougher ground and longer days, the Berg Boot is our most rugged style to date. Handmade in KwaZulu-Natal from thick full grain leather, it is designed for durability, support and long-term wear in more demanding conditions.

A padded collar and full leather lining provide comfort around the ankle, while the generous toe box allows for natural movement and all-day wear. The bellows tongue helps keep out dust and debris, and the double stitch-down construction gives the boot its strength and stability.

Underfoot, the Trek Grip sole delivers dependable traction across varied terrain, making the Berg a reliable choice for walking, hiking and everyday outdoor use.

This is a boot built with purpose. Strong, masculine and made to go further.

  • Care

    Clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt and allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat. Treat regularly with a beeswax leather food to nourish the leather and improve water resistance. For heavily worn or dry leather, apply a leather cream before returning to regular treatment.

    If boots become wet, insert newspaper and allow them to dry slowly in a cool environment. Rotating between pairs will help extend the life of the leather.

  • Sizing

    True to size for most. The Berg Boot offers a generous fit with added room in the toe box. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down. Refer to our UK and EU size guide above the add to cart button.

  • Delivery & returns

    Fast UK delivery from our Bath dispatch centre. Free exchanges on unworn boots. Returns accepted within 14 days. Simple and straightforward.

  • Fit

    Generous fit with a wider forefoot and higher toe box. The padded collar and full leather lining provide a secure and supportive feel. As a full grain, fully lined boot, it may require a short break-in period before reaching its full comfort.

    Trek Thermo Grip sole designed for traction and stability across varied terrain. Durable and supportive underfoot, suited to walking, hiking and everyday outdoor use.

  • Materials

    2 to 2.2 mm full grain leather upper with natural grain character. Fully lined with 1 to 1.2 mm leather lining. Full leather insole for breathability and long-term comfort. Double stitchdown construction. Finished with signature laces, metal D-rings and speed hooks.
