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.

1. More room at the toes and more volume in the shoe.
2. More space at the ball of the foot and big toe.
3. A wider stance thanks to the wider sole base.
4. 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 feed the nubuck leather 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.
