"Consider these your daily drivers. Whether you’re working around the yard or heading out for a hike, you can depend on them for a comfortable fit and casual appearance. Plus, they deliver on the trail as well, with flexible insoles and roomy toe box that doesn’t bind or bunch your feet heading uphill or down."
Great price. Fast delivery. This is my 3 rd pair of these boots. They are the most comfortable boot I have ever worn. No break in time, just put them on and go. I highly recommend these boots to any one that hikes a lot. I live in Arizona so the terrain is very tough on the boots. They typically last me about 2 to 3 years depending on how much time I am in the field. Great buy!

I use these boots primarily for motorcycle riding and some hiking. The bottom was worn through in spots but the inside stitching, inside fabric and the heel are still like new..
Great, high quality waterproof leather boots, which are becoming harder and harder to find these days. They are comfortable, functional, and well suited to our team's search and rescue missions.
I discovered Meindl by chance on reddit, after I exhausted all local options. My first pair, a ladies' version of the light hiker, was beautiful and I wanted to love it, but it was a bit too narrow for my bunions. Two exchanges later, I am a proud owner of these men's light hikers. To my amazement, they fit really well. I am very grateful to the knowledgeable and caring Meindl customer service rep who recommended this option. I wish more businesses were like this!
I am torn on my rating, as this is a very solid boot, and the Comfort Fit wide fits my EEE foot! It's not light, and is solidly built. But by light, I mean it should be lighter in weight and more breathable. For heavy long-term backpacking it might not be "heavy" enough, but after rucking in this with 35 Lbs, it did fine. Easy to wear out of the box.
These replaced my beloved Lowa Renegade which I have always owned due to the wide size and great fit. These Comfort Fit Light are perfect! I will make this my go-to brand from now on. They do come a bit larger so be prepared to size down a half or full size. You will not be disappointed!
At Meindl we know that quality boots are a significant investment. That is why we are so committed to educating our customers on the best methods of care to make sure your boots continue to perform at their peak and last for years to come.
All Meindl Boots come out of the factory treated and ready for you to get out. However, if you want to ensure the boots are in peak condition from the moment you hit the field you can give them a quick treatment with our Meindl Wet Proof and let that sit for 24 hours and then apply Meindl Sport Wax.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT heat Sport Wax before applying. Doing so can cause it to penetrate too deep and impair the leather’s breathability and wearing comfort. DO NOT apply oils or grease on any of our boots. There are two reasons: First, oil and grease products can cause boots to lose strength and stability. Second, oil or grease will migrate throughout the leather which can cause the rand and outsoles to delaminate from the boot.
Quality boots deserve care and attention. Read our full article to learn how to maintain your Meindl boots from beginning to end.
