Altberg boots

[toxo 160]

Was looking at getting a pair of defenders but getting the impression that they're not all the same. Can someone talk me through the differences, MTP, Combat, cadet?

Also, how do the sizes work out? I normally use a 9 and a bit so if I want a couple pairs of thick socks should I buy a 10 and what width?

I'm 11 and the 11 is a little tighter than other makes....they have a sizing guide on their website.....
