Meindl Softline Ultra GTX (2012)

£150.00

These have the feel of a serious boot, with a stiff chassis underfoot that provides stability and support, particularly over rougher ground. This becomes useful on longer walks too, because feet don’t tire as quickly as with softer-flexing boots. There is a decent enough ‘rocker’ in the sole that provides a pleasant walking action on harder ground. Although made from ...

Meindl Himalaya MFS 2011

£230.00

The Meindl Himalaya has been around for a few years now, and it has always offered excellent performance for really tough mountain days when you are up against scree and snow for long periods. The upper is leather with a Gore-Tex waterproof lining, but to further protect the foot you also get a full rubber rand to ensure this is ...

Meindl Air Revolution Lite

£169.00

These Meindl boots fall into the stiffer, more robust category of fabric footwear, attempting to be a viable three-season boot. They have a really stiff sole and they did feel heavy on the foot – a sense exacerbated by their stiffness. The tread pattern has very deep lugs that really improve grip in grimy fields and on hillsides. There is ...

Meindl Kansas GTX 2011

£150.00

The Meindl Kansas GTX was new for 2010 and it still looks pretty good today. The boot has a leather upper that is virtually stitch-free, so durability should be pretty good even on rocky ground. A rubber rand around the toe and forefoot adds a little extra protection for rockier ground too. The upper offers good support for the foot, ...

Meindl Burma Pro MFS 2011

£180.00

The Meindl Burma Pro MFS features nubuck leather; Gore-Tex waterproof lining; memory foam; rubber rand for durability; excellent sole unit for general hill-walking; proven performance and frequent Trail’s  ‘Best in Test’ winner. But its weight of 1948g (pair, size 11) is just too heavy by modern standards; the price is too high compared with other options that provide most of ...

Meindl Matterhorn Extreme 2010

£265.00

The Meindl Matterhorn Extreme retains the GSB crampon mounting system that was originally developed by Grivel and Scarpa, and this allows the dedicated GSB crampons to be very easily fitted to the boot. Normal crampons can also be fitted though. The Matterhorn has a very high ankle cuff, which makes this more of a mountaineering boot that a winter walking ...

Meindl Alpine Trek 2010

£210.00

As the name suggests the Meindl Alpine Trek is an excellent boot for Alpine trekking. It has a relatively lightweight upper that is made from synthetic materials, which also gives it a modern, stylish appearance. There is a waterproof lining inside the upper as well as a stretch ankle cuff so you get an ankle-hugging fit but with less restriction ...

Meindl Borneo Pro MFS

£165.00

A luxurious boot, the Borneo Pro MFS has great leather padding on the inside, right up to the memory foam ankle cuffs. Stiff soles and heel section help to give good support over uneven terrain and the Vibram soles aid confidence with good levels of grip, although they did clog a little on some particularly sticky Cornish mud. The rubber ...

Meindl Alta Via 2010

£205.00

Any boot can be used for tackling scrambling and via ferrata routes, however some boots make the challenge easier. But if you are in no rush to push your limits to the max then a well-built general mountain walking and scrambling boot is ideal. The Meindl Alta Via fills this brief perfectly, thanks to its leather upper, rubber rand and ...

Meindl Burma Pro MFS 2010

£175.00

The Meindl Burma Pro MFS is very popular and well-proven, thanks to the durable design and out-of-the-box comfort that have made it a Trail favourite for many years. You get a good leather upper with minimal stitching to ensure longevity, with a Gore-Tex waterproof lining to keep feet dry. Inside a memory foam lining ensures extremely high levels of comfort ...

Meindl Matterhorn Extreme 2009

£260.00

The GSB crampon mounting system is no longer provided in the Scarpa Manta, but it does remain on the Meindl Matterhorn Extreme. This system appeared in 2008 on this 4-season boot and it allows dedicated crampons to slot into the front of the boot while a tail clip locks the rear of the crampon in place. This makes crampon fitting ...

The Meindl Himalaya MFS 3-4 season boot has been around a few years, and it is a good sound design for hill and mountain walking at any time of year. It has a leather upper with a huge rubber rand for extra durability. You get a Gore-Tex waterproof lining too. There is plenty of protection and support with this boot, ...

The Meindl Burma Pro MFS is a modern classic that changed the marketplace when it arrived on the scene many years ago. It has been a frequent winner of 3-season boot tests in Trail. Its success has been due to a mix of features that are all dedicated to performance on the hill. So you get a good leather upper, ...

MEINDL BURMA PRO MFS

£160.00

Review: A traditional full-leather boot that oozes quality. It’s a great high mountain boot, stiff enough to kick steps in snow, and provide lots of insulation on freezing days, but it’s not crampon-compatible, so only consider if you’ll never wear spikes. VITAL STATSSizes: 6-14 (UK including half-sizes); 39-48 (Euro) Upper: Tanned Nubuk Waterproof/breathable lining: Gore-Tex Sole: Vibram Double Density Weight: ...

Meindl Matterhorn Extreme 2008

£199.00

When it comes to 4-season boots, Meindl has followed Scarpa by taking advantage of the GSB crampon mounting system, which allows dedicated crampons to slot into the front of the boot while a tail clip locks the rear of the crampon in place. This is possibly the easiest, quickest and safest crampon mounting available. Apart from GSB, the Meindl Matterhorn ...

Meindl Himalaya MFS 2008

£175.00

The Meindl Himalaya MFS is a very tough 3-4 season boot that will withstand many years of abuse on the hill, thanks to the huge rubber rand that encloses the upper. There is also a Gore-Tex lining for extra protection against the wet. The ankle cuff is quite high, so you get lots of support when backpacking with heavy rucksacks ...

Meindl Vakuum GTX

£150.00

This is a new 3-season boot from Meindl, and for our money it just about has the edge over the Meindl Burma Pro, even though it is a tenner more expensive. Firstly it’s a notch lighter in weight. I also like that full rubber rand, which provides extra protection when scrambling over rocks. The ankle cuff is a little softer ...

Meindl Vakuum GTX

£150.00

Fully lined with Meindl’s Memory Foam System (MFS), Meindl’s Vakuum GTX boots are soft and comfy to pull on. They are a little too roomy at the toe though, making them feel clumsy, and it is hard to get a stable fit without lacing them very tightly. These are rugged boots that excel high up the mountain. They handle a ...

Meindl Matterhorn GTX

As the name suggests, the Matterhorn climbing boot is ideal for big, rocky mountain spikes, with an approach through a variety of slush, rubble, rock and scree as well as a dash across snow and ice, and a slog through a soggy bog. The sole is a stiff Vibram unit with a climbing zone and lots of stiffness to take ...

This 3-4 season boot is built around a leather upper with a huge rubber rand for extra durability and a Gore-Tex waterproof lining. The ankle cuff is quite high, so you get lots of support when backpacking with heavy rucksacks across scree or walking across a snow-covered plateau. Underfoot there is an aggressive sole unit, and it’s generally ideal for ...
