A technical alpine hiking and early-season hunting boot for serious mountain hikers and backcountry hunters who demand Air Revolution climate-controlled performance, Gore-Tex® waterproofing, and full-system protection on demanding high-country terrain.
The Air Revolution Alpine 4.1 Hiker is Meindl's technical mountain hiking and hunting boot for serious alpine terrain. Built around the Air Revolution sole system, engineered to deliver superior climate-controlled performance across the sustained demands of high-altitude use, this is a boot designed for the days when the terrain is demanding, the conditions are variable, and performance can't be negotiated.
Air Revolution technology actively manages climate control and breathability across the varying output levels that mountain hiking produces, keeping your feet cool and comfortable whether you're grinding up a long approach or picking your way across technical ground. Combined with a B/C medium-stiff flex rating, the Alpine 4.1 delivers the torsional stability that serious mountain terrain demands.
At 7.5 inches with a suede leather upper and DiGAfix® lacing, the Alpine 4.1 Hiker provides full ankle coverage and a precise, adjustable fit on technical terrain. Gore-Tex® waterproof lining handles all-weather mountain conditions and the Vibram® outsole provides dependable grip on the wet rock, loose shale, and mixed alpine surfaces that high-mountain use consistently involves.
Built on a standard last with an Air Active insole and handcrafted in Germany, the Air Revolution Alpine 4.1 Hiker is the right choice for alpine hikers and early-season mountain hunters who demand technical performance, climate-managed comfort, and a boot built to handle whatever the mountain brings.

These boots required virtually no breaking in period. Comfortable from day one. Was able to hike 6-8 miles daily over various terrain without any issues. Customer support was also excellent. I experienced a clicking noise from one of the boots while training after about 120 miles. They replaced them immediately which allowed me to maintain my training schedule for an 110 mile high alpine trek over 10 days with 34,000 feet of elevation gain. Oh and I don’t know how they do it but my feet never get hot? Don’t know how they do it. I tried three other high end brands and none were as comfortable or breathable as these. Truly a great experience.
I've been wearing mine breaking them in for an Elk hunt this fall. They already feel like they've formed to my feet. They're very comfortable with good stability. This is my 2nd pair of Meindl hunting boots. Nothing is perfect so I won't rate anything a 5 star ever, but these boots haven't disappointed!
Sam recommended the 4.1 after discussing my need for hunting boots that were cooler wearing than regular insulated hunting boots. Additionally, we spoke about the custom insoles I wear and he recommended the EE size.
After decades, I finally have happy feet.
The comfort I've experienced wearing the boots is uncomparable.
I wear them all day everyday and don't care if im judged wearing them with a suit.
Thanks Sam for information on the Veterans discount and many thanks to Meindl USA
