Description
One of Altberg’s more recent boots and based upon their Sneeker Microlite Boot, this Tabbing Tactical Elite boot is available in both black of MoD Brown; however we do favour the brown version as it’s designed to compliment the modern Multi Terrain Pattern (MTP) camouflage clothing
Due to its design of relatively shorter leg length, it aids mobility whilst running/tabbing, and coupled with it’s shock absorbing mid layer and tried and tested Vibram sole, it supports the rear of the foot and provides a “rocker” toe lift which reduces the pressure on the big toe significantly
Ultimately this Tabbing boot is based upon a running shoe last, but given a military boot twist to perform in all conditions. This is Altberg's lightest weight military boot and is upgraded to feature their Cambrelle membrane, which whilst not waterproof aids the drying out process of the leather once wet

Size and Fitting Advice
Here at John Bulls we’d recommend you choosing a 1/2 size above your normal shoe size as this allows for a thicker sock to be used with the boot - Read our latest Altberg Boots Size Fitting Guide here
Excellent boots, comfortable and lightweight. Everything I've heard about the high quality of altbergs has been proven true.
My dogs paws will wear out before these boots do, if his reaction after this walk is anything to go by.
Service from john bull was on point as always.
Quick postage, best boots on the market, emailed customer support as they sent me a discount code to use initially but it only arrived after I'd ordered product, never received a response , hence 4 stars as product is good
What a great company!!!
Highly recommended. Thank you for a lightning like reply. I cannot commended you enough.
Excellent service and high quality boots. They really help my ankles
Probably the best boots iv had in terms of fit
Very comfortable straight out of the box. Definitely go half a size up from your normal shoe size. Great service as usual from the John Bull team.
A great set of boots!
Thanks John Bull great boots son very happy with them will definitely use your company again top quality
I have used John Bull a few times and found the service to be good. First time I got a sizing wrong and had to make a return which was well handled. This time ordered some new boots which were competitively priced and quickly delivered. Thoroughly recommended
Pleased with the service.
Altberg Tabbing SF-MK3 MoD Brown Boot
Fabulous service in getting boot out before Xmas despite last minute order. The boots are great.
I ordered some goods for my son. They were very good at explaining everything and very good at sending the goods quickly. UPS the carrier were complete rubbish .
Brilliant boots. Fit perfectly. Like walking on a cloud
A superb lightweight boot with a medium wide fit and superb roll in the step.
I don’t usually leave reviews, good or bad but this is the first time I have used John Bull and it would be rude of me not to leave a review after the service I received. Brilliant product and great help and advice. Really appreciated.
Last pair purchased 5 years ago and worn out after many many miles. Replacements just as good and after a couple of hours walking felt just as comfortable. For me the wide fitting means boots that actually fit properly and over the years I have tried a range of makes. I am sure when these eventually wear out I will look to buy the same again. Use these when not too wet as they breath much better than full gortex lined boots but fine with limited water.
