Reviewed by S M Breeze - 2nd May, 2021 Been buying this type... Been buying this type of trainer for over 25 years. However I won't be buying them again as the laces are now so rubbish that they won't stay done up even when done in a double knot!
Reviewed by Red Rover - 23rd May, 2016 Only fit for the garden I bought these boots last spring (2015) as an alternative to my main Meindl boots (Island Lady) for low level walking as my other boots are quite heavy. I have had a few pairs of Meindl boots but these are the worst I have ever bought of any brand. I tried them out on a wet day in Kielder forest. The path was good but had lots of roots. I have never felt so unsure on my feet and ended up scrabbling along a fence as the boots slipped and slithered over every rock and root making me feel very wary. I've used them on and off since usually in the dry as I don't trust them in the wet. Just back from a week in Arran (May 2016) and after just about 30 minutes the soles of my feet ache with the hardness of the insoles. There is no padding whatsoever. I do need a stiff outsole but usually boots for walking have some padding these have none to speak of. Each day after only fairly short walks the soles of my feet like I had run the +Goatfell race .... I couldn't wait to get these off my feet. Despite being a loyal Meindl customer for years I would not even what these to walk to the pub so I have to say these boots are now consigned to the garden.
Reviewed by Jayne - 2nd Apr, 2015 Expected better Found these very comfortable & can walk long distances 15-20 miles in them with no discomfort. Rigid boot like sole helps with this. Good grip and waterproof. But after wearing them to walk about 20 -30 miles a week for 4 months the lining split on the heel, causing blisters. Meindl have given a refund, so no problem with customer service but I feel Meindl quality isn't what it used to be.
Reviewed by KarenB - 7th Feb, 2015 Good Light weight shoes I bought these shoes to replace a pair of Zamberlan walking shoes which after 3 years wear had finally been confined to the bin. They are very light and I would call them more trainers than walking shoes, but they are sufficient to walk the dogs at low level. The first time I wore them I got the biggest blister I have had in years at the side of the foot near the ankle (I had walked only 4 miles) but they soon became very comfortable. I got them on a price match and don't feel i would have been able to justify the full price of £100+
Reviewed by Betsy - 28th Sep, 2014 Excellent Superb shoes, bought them one day and the next walked 20 miles over a mix of sand, grass and tarmac with no rubbing, no blisters and soles of feet were not nearly as sore as I would expect walking that distance. Highly recommended.
