Reviews
Meindl Borneo Pro MFS, 28 January 2010
By EricF (County Durham)
I've owned these boots now for approx eight months. They have consistently proved to be very waterproof, have excellent support and without doubt the most comfortable boots I've owned.
After having fabric boots for the past ten years and now returning to all leather I can say that the change has been very worthwhile. The boots themselves are slightly wider than most and this is a plus for anyone who prefers more room around the ball of the foot. The toe box allows you to be able to flex the toes while at the same time supporting during descents or when covering rough ground. I’ve also used with crampons during the recent snow.
Only downside is that after the first mile or two into the walk the boot laces need to be re-tightened. I've heard that this is a quirky thing with all Meindl's. Once tightened no further problems all day.
Overall I would strongly recommend these boots to anyone wanting to buy a serious 3 season, fell/valley walking boot with a bit of 4 season capability.
