Description
The Meindl Bernina Lady 2GTX® hiking shoe is a comfortable, flexible, waterproof shoe for women. The outer material is made of a high-quality leather and the fabric used gives the shoe a sportier appearance. The inner material is also made of leather.
The shoe has a weight of 1400 grams and belongs to the B shoes. It is especially good to use during mountain hikes and has a wide design.
The Gore-Tex® lining not only ensures that the shoe is completely waterproof, but also continues to ventilate well. Water from the outside is stopped by the membrane, water vapor (perspiration) is transported from the inside to the outside. It is important to wear the right (hiking) socks here.

Due to the good counter (= heel piece) in the shoe and a firm padding around the ankle, the heel stays in place and the shoe provides good support.
The combination of technical properties makes the Meindl Bernina Lady 2GTX® a real all-rounder with which you can get along excellently in our (wet) forest areas, extensive heathland and on rocky paths, but also in the Alps for a light walk.
Meindl has included the Meindl Bernina Lady 2GTX® in the Category: Comfort Fit – Wellness, which means that your foot has more room in the shoe at the forefoot and toes and that the volume (space in the shoe) is greater.
The insole in the shoe is removable. The following insole is included with the shoe: Comfort Fit, this insole consists of a layer of cork for lightweight cushioning with a top layer of Memory Foam. This provides support and moisture regulation. Under the heel is a soft gel cushioning.
Comfort Fit
If you wear a shoe all day, the fit is crucial. You want a comfortable shoe, especially when you go on walks. That is why Meindl has designed shoes with Comfort Fit, which have more space at the last.
- More room at the toes and more volume in the shoe.
- More space at the ball of the foot and big toe.
- A wider stance thanks to the wider sole base.
- A perfect fit due to the narrow heel.
Good maintenance for these shoes
It is advisable to impregnate your hiking boots with a water-repellent spray suitable for shoes with a membrane before using them for the first time. When purchasing a pair of hiking boots at our store, we do this the first time.
You can nourish the nubuck leather of this Meindl Bernina Lady 2GTX® with a conditioner or wax. Over time, when using a waxed agent, the leather will look like smooth leather. Brushing with a nubuck brush restores the nubuck structure of the leather.
Cleaning the hiking boots
First clean your shoes with a soft brush or lukewarm water and then let them air dry. A heater or hair dryer is strongly discouraged! Also rinse the inside of your shoes once in a while. This way you remove the salt crystals from perspiration and the membrane will retain its breathable properties. Air drying is also recommended after this. If necessary, fill with kitchen paper or newspaper to aid the drying process. Always follow the instructions of your chosen maintenance product carefully.
