Altberg Blueline Aqua Waterproof Police Boot Unisex in Black

Season:CORE

Brand:Altberg

Code:AB-PL-BLUEAQ

Product Description

The Altberg Blueline Aqua Boot is a waterproof, next‑generation police boot developed in 2019 for frontline officers, specialist units and search teams. Certified to BS EN 20347:2012, it combines a fully waterproof construction with improved mobility, comfort and support.

The boot uses a Sympatex® military‑grade waterproof bootee lining, providing full‑height waterproof protection while maintaining breathability during high‑activity duties.

The upper combines 2.4 mm Anfibio full‑grain leather around the foot and heel for durability and support, with 1.8 mm soft leather around the leg and tongue to improve flexibility and comfort. This design enhances Achilles flex and reduces restriction during running, patrolling and vehicle use.

The Altberg Rhino outsole provides dependable grip across urban and rural terrain, with SRC slip resistance and oil/acid resistance for varied operational environments.

Sizing Information

Size Guide

Altberg AForme Last

The A‑Forme Last is Altberg’s more asymmetric foot shape, designed to follow the natural curve of the foot and reduce pressure on the big toe. Many of its features are inspired by running‑shoe design.

Narrower heel and waist to hold and support the rear of the foot

Increased upwards toe lift (rocker) to improve walking efficiency

Reduced sideways pressure on the large toe, ideal for those prone to joint irritation

Wider forefoot with slightly above‑medium volume, allowing natural toe spread

This last shape works particularly well for walkers whose big toe is the longest, and who prefer a snug heel fit with a more generous forefoot.

Choosing the Right Altberg Last Shape

5‑Width Last – Tapered toebox that narrows towards the centre. Best if your second or third toes are the longest. Examples: Altberg Fremington, Altberg Tethera

G‑Fit Last – Squarer toebox with more room across the forefoot. Ideal for walkers with a wide forefoot and naturally square toe shape. Examples: Altberg Keld, Altberg Kisdon

A‑Forme Last – More asymmetric shape with a snug heel and a wider forefoot. Best if your big toe is the longest and you have slim heels. Examples: Altberg Malham, Altberg Nordkapp

General Altberg Advice

Altberg boots tend to run slightly short. Most customers benefit from going ½ a size up from their normal shoe size, especially when wearing walking socks.

Professional Opinion

Care Guide - Police Boots

Keep your leather boots clean and well‑waterproofed to maintain performance, extend their lifespan and, most importantly, keep your feet dry.

1. Remove laces and footbeds
Take out the laces and footbeds, and shake out any grit or dirt from inside the boots. Clean the footbeds if needed and leave them to air out.

2. Clean your boots thoroughly
UseNikwax Footwear Cleaning GelorGrangers Footwear & Gear Cleaner, scrubbing with a firm‑bristle brush under running water. Clean both theuppers and soles, removing trapped grit or stones, and pay special attention to thetongue gusset area, which often holds hidden dirt.

3. Apply wax once dry
When the boots are fully dry, apply black Altberg Leder Gris, using a soft brush or cloth. This maintains the water‑repellent treatment and keeps the leather soft, nourished and supple. Use black Altberg Leder Glossto maintain a high shine.

4. Store boots correctly
Keep boots in acool, dry, room‑temperature environment. Avoid damp places such as sheds, basements or porches, as moisture can causehydrolysis, leading to deterioration of the sole unit.
