That Hanwag boot looks very similar to my Lowa Renegades. I wonder if there is any connection between the two companies.


All I know about them is the following piece of trivia.
Two brothers, Hans and Lothair Wagner were born into a Bavarian boot making family. They entered the family business, learnt their trade, rose up through the ranks and went on to successfully manage the business until they had a falling out and went their separate ways.


Hans Wagner set up his own company called Hanwag.
Lothair Wagner set up his own company called LOWA.

They look to be in good used condition and just need a clean, some polish and a couple of coats of Leder Gris wax and they'll be good to go for many miles.

Visited Milletts today and bought :-

Two pairs of Peter Storm trousers for £10 each. Quite thin but if they're windproof they will suit me fine. If not, they seem ok to use daily.

Two OS Explorer Maps (Dark Peak and White Peak) at £5.40 each which is way cheaper than the normal £8.99 I see everywhere else. They include a digital download but looking at the reviews on Google Play of the OS software, I think I'll not bother with that option!

This Milletts was in Bakewell but I think these offers are available at all Milletts and Blacks shops - both of which I believe are owned by JD.

Bhod, I think I'll wait until I've sorted what phone software I'll be using (ViewRanger looks favourite at the moment) when I get set up. If they're still available - they're yours! Are you on Iphone or Android?

No problems Steve, but thanks for keeping me in mind, I'm on iPhone by the way.

Just noticed that I can watch the latest HD version of the latest Star Wars film on the internet for free. Now that's what I call a bargain, all 2hrs and 13mins of it and the sound via my sound bar. I've a couple of G & T cans in, plus nibbles and that's my evening sorted!

Hi


Found myself a Pro Action 65 Backpack unused for £10.00 - seems like a bargain to me - over the next 18 Months I plan to do the South West Costal path- probably 10 day blocks and wild camping - this pack seem ideal - thoughts appreciated.
