The 7.5-inch Alpine 4.1 hiking boot designed for the untamed beauty of the backcountry. With every stitch echoing the spirit of the Alps, these hiking boots embody our relentless trails. Built with Meindl's exclusive Air Revolution® technology, these hiking boots ensure a climate-controlled environment for your feet allowing warm air to leave the boot while letting cool air in keeping you comfortable in a wider range of temperatures. The waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex® liner complements the Air Revolution® technology, keeping your feet dry in the face of rain, snow, or dew. Meanwhile our Air-Active insole actively manages moisture, wicking away perspiration while distributing your weight across the entire foot, helping eliminate hotspots and sore feet. Rated B/C on our Flex-Use Rating System, these hiking boots offer the stability and support needed for carrying heavy loads over challenging terrain. Our Vibram® Multigrain 3 outsoles provide a stable, sure-footed platform in a variety of backcountry landscapes. Meindl's exclusive DiGAfix® lacing system and ball-bearing eyelets, achieving the perfect fit is effortless allowing you to quickly customize the fit and adjust to how your feet are feeling throughout the day. Designed to conquer the untamed, the Alpine 4.1 hiking boots are your ticket to unforgettable adventures. Step into greatness, one side at a time. Made in Germany.
I purchased these because I refuse to purchase merchandise in Asia especially, China. I was going to pay a lot of money for boots so I wanted the best. The U.S. brands didn’t compare to these. Not broken in yet so some blocks are 4 and not a five at this point.
After numerous trials, I think I have found my perfect boot. I wore them around the house for about 4 hours and then went out the next day on a 5 mile hike (about 500 feet of ascent) with some bushwhacking. My feet felt great during and after the hike. Toe box was comfortable and I had zero hotspots. I like the "Air Revolution" concept, hiking in Northern Arkansas in the summer can lead to some sweaty feet, hopefully these boots help with that issue. A winner from Meindl~
Very comfortable, fit just like my hunting boots. Wearing perfect right out of the box.
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.
