Excellent shoes, great quality, extremely comfortable.

Very comfortable but stitching fails
This is my second pair. They look good enough for every day wear and extremely comfortable. Like so many others found, the stitching around the toe caps on both pairs failed.

Very poor insole
These are my second pair of Meindl Philadelphia Men GTX Walking Shoe. The shoes themselves are an exceptionally good fit - other than the insoles! The insoles are useless and last only a few miles.

Nice wide fit & comfy. Not durable for the price.
Had a pair for 9 months now. They are relatively comfortable but the insoles wore out more quickly than I am used to and they are no longer waterproof. The tread has outlived the rest of the shoe.

Meindle Philadelphia - best for wide feet & fast walkers.
On my 3rd pair - easily the most comfortable walking shoes I have found (I have wide feet.)
I ave. 25 miles each week and have no problems with the build quality. The soles last 2 years - fine by me.

Disappointing from premium brand
The price didn't reflect the performance. Light use 4 years old, used for local grass field walking. After about 4-5 months Goretex waterproofing gave up. Sole wear has been ok. Wet feet not fun

Everyday use and comfortable but...
I really liked these for city and trail walking. Excellent fit with half-sizes available but in common with just about all the other reviews the stitching failed around the toe caps. Great shame.

Comfy shoe but not bomb proof.
I've had mine a number of years. The stitching to the front has now all failed and the toes are collapsing in on the left shoe. As such, perhaps it's something to do with my walking style.

Great Shoe
Excellent shoe, lasted a long time 5 years or so, stitching came away at toe and lost its waterproofness, but I'm not being on servicing my shoes......
Just place an order for a new pair

Comfortable but poor quality stitching.
These are without doubt the most comfortable walking shoes I have ever owned, but stitching has come apart after 6 months walking. Very poor. Found a local shoe repairer. Repaired both shoes £20!

Good Performance, Poor Quality
A very comfortable walking shoe that fits my wide feet nicely. However, after about 18 months the stitching around the toecap has become undone as others have reported. I will not be buying again.

Comfortable but bad value and poorly constructed
I have had 3 pairs of these.
Pros. VERY comfortable. The best.
Cons.
Very expensive
Poor build quality - soles wear out fast, laces delaminate quickly, stitching undoes

I wore these to walk the Camino (800k +) over 5 weeks
Living in them for 5 weeks, they are comfy enough - wished I had chosen a more padded insole brand. Still got blisters, so taped my feet up with Zinc Oxide tape each day. They are light and strong.

Stitching falls apart
Good shoes but not worth the money. Like so many on here, the stitching around the toe cap in both shoes has split on both sides. Meindl want £66.00 to repair. Design fault.

Very comfortable, but...
Bought Oct '21. Immediately recognised as most comfortable shoe I've owned. But at 750 miles insoles worn out. Now 1,000 miles soles wearing out. I'm 160lbs. Disappointing short life.

stitching falls apart
High hopes for these at first as very comfortable, but after a year of walking 6-8 miles a week they started to split at the outer sides. Got worse and after 3 yrs only wearable in dry -- shame

Just bought my fourth pair (or is it fifth?). Most comfortable ever - the wider fit is great for me. Have walked hundreds of miles in these and never had a problem with stitching, laces or anything.
