The boots arrived in excellent condition with lots of tread remaining on the soles. My feet are a UK size 9.5 to 10 and the size 44 boots are an excellent fit for me. The boots are generous in width, so I placed a thin innersole under the removable Meindl innersole to reduce the volume slightly and now they are a comfortable and snug fit. The boots are top end quality, really well made and heavy duty. They are a propper 4 season plus mountain grade boot. I found the boots to be immediately comfortable with no breaking in required. The sole is very rigid with little flex compared to a 2/3 season boot and this is very noticeable for the first few steps. However. I got used to the stiffness of the sole in no time and do not notice it now, even when walking on flat ground. These boots will be perfect for my frequent trips to the lake district and Scotland. I have a lot of Austrian Army surplus gear because I regard their standard issue kit as being the best out there.

Fantastic boots, comfy and sturdy . Unfortunately as with some second hand gear the pair I received has snapped lace hooks which I'll have to get fixed. but for the price the boots themselves are a bargain. Also bought Austrian waterproof jacket (distressed) which is a great jacket , far above my expectations, waterproof and warm .

Excellent boots, they arrived with not much wear. However, despite that, it did not take long to break them in. Big fan of these boots, they served me well hiking in Snowdonia

What you have here is a beautiful set of Meindl boots in black. Retail i suspect new they woudl be a £250 pair of boots. Mine came clan with only a little bit of wear on the sole. Like other reviewers i had to get better stronger laces and needed to open up the lace holes with a small tool. They have had a good clean and are now ready for action - very impressed
