Classic leather hiking boots

The Runner’s World experts put our Peru GTX leather walking boots through their paces. Read on to find out how they got along:

“The Meindl Peru GTX is a classic leather hiking boot that delivers dependable comfort and support straight out of the box. One of the standout features for our testers was how little breaking-in they required – with no rubbing or pressure points, even on longer, more technical walks. The leather upper feels premium and soft, yet the boot still offers excellent ankle support thanks to generous padding and a secure fit around the collar.”

Day hikes to multi-day treks

“GORE-TEX lining also kept our testers’ feet dry in wet conditions, and the overall construction feels built to last. If you’re after a traditional leather boot that works well for everything from day hikes to multi-day treks – and you don’t want to worry about a long bedding-in period – the Peru GTX is a reliable, ready-to-go option.”
