  • My girlfriend is thinking about getting a pair of the Grenson hikers and I remember people saying that they weren't as high quality as they used to be. Does anyone have any other ideas for something similar she could look at to compare?

    Basically a chunky sole, and maybe slightly less "aggressive" than a DM

  • I have had a Danner pair for 7 years now. They’re not daily wear I’ll admit but they’ve lasted very well and comfort 10/10.

  • My partner has some of those Grensons, they've lasted her well for 2 years so far

  • My GF was looking at these too a couple of years ago. After liking my Crockett & Jones boots and seeing how they looked after 10+years she splurged a little more and got the C&J Grace boots and loves them. They're not so "hiker", but absolutely solid. She's also got a pair of Trickers Stephy with command sole too for the chunky look.

    I think for the price, the Grenson's are a lot of money. They're verging into the better quality Northampton manufacturers but aren't close to the build quality and longevity you get from Trickers, C&J and the others.
