    If you are considering buying one of the big name European brands do yourself a favor and check out the Rainier series from Alpen. In my opinion they perform better Leica and Ziess models that cost at least twice as much.

  • Leigh Stewart

    I love these so much! Me and my hunting buddy did a side by side comparison with his ultravids and he agreed that these are much better after we spotted a buck in the distance and he couldn't even tell if it had antlers. He sold his Leica's on ebay and is now a convert to Alpen.

  • Luis Emery

    Such a well made pair of binoculars, top workmanship and quality materials. The optics are what makes them really special. The detail and colors are so bright and vibrant, the images really leap out at you. These are one of the best high end binoculars I've used and you can pay double this amount of money and still find perform better.
