The ultimate all-terrain mountain hiking and hunting boot for serious backcountry hikers and early-season mountain hunters who cover demanding terrain, log serious elevation, and need a boot that performs better the harder they push.
The MFS Himalaya GTX earns the ultimate all-terrain boot designation by handling the full range of what demanding mountain use actually means. Long mountain hikes with significant elevation change. Backcountry early-season hunting where the approach is technical and the country is remote. Multi-day trips where your gear needs to perform day after day without letting you down. This is the boot built for all of it.
The MFS System memory foam footbed is the core of what makes this boot exceptional. Over time, it molds to the precise shape of your foot, eliminating the pressure points and fit inconsistencies that cause fatigue and discomfort on extended mountain use. The result is a boot that gets better the more you wear it, building a personalized fit that no off-the-shelf boot can match.
At 8.5 inches, the MFS Himalaya GTX provides serious coverage and ankle protection on technical terrain. The B/C medium-stiff flex rating delivers the torsional stability that steep, loose, and uneven mountain ground demands without sacrificing the natural foot movement needed for long-distance use. DiGAfix® lacing wraps your ankle with precision and holds it through descents and scrambles alike, and the Vibram® outsole provides the dependable grip that experienced mountain hikers and hunters trust.
Built on a standard last with a nubuck leather upper, Air Active insole, and handcrafted in Germany to Meindl's exacting standards, the MFS Himalaya GTX is the right choice for anyone who takes demanding mountain terrain seriously, whether the objective is a summit or a bull elk.
Made with PFAS chemicals

"If you are looking for a serious mountain boot to take you into the backcountry look no further. These boots are built for all types of terrain and weather, fully crampon compatible. And packed with all Meindl's technology to keep your feet protected no matter the obstacles."
Just a quick note on how much I really enjoy wearing these boots. Have formed nicely to both feet.
As a fyi I found the squeaky noise was coming from the tongue moving as it bedded in. The tongue hook nicely holds it in place and just needed to find its place.
Again, just so glad purchased these vs La Sportiva!
These are the best winter boots ive had and they are great to have cause they help with my feet as i move
My boots are great and Sam was the best customer service representative I’ve experienced in years.
Not sure how many Meindl boots I’ve bought over the years, this is the second pair of the Himalaya GTX. Have 400 miles on the first pair with a 50 pound pack and are still going strong. I bought this pair as a back up in case the airline losses my bags when traveling. Put this new pair on out of the box and hiked 3 miles without any weight and had no sore feet. I can’t ask for a better boot for what I do.
I love your boots but your return policy is tough. I was looking for a mor forgiving boot like maybe the air style that you have but i had already thrown away the box and tags so apparently I cannot exchange them

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.
