Bhutan GORE-TEX Walking Boots
Meindl · £290
Worth being NRY provisional
£290, and Ellis Brigham call it Meindl’s benchmark UK hillwalking boot, which is the right description: full nubuck uppers against boggy British ground, and the model other boots in this category get compared with. It is the most expensive walking boot here and the one most likely to still be in use in fifteen years.
- For
- Someone buying one pair of boots for the Lakes, Snowdonia and the Highlands indefinitely.
- Not for
- Anyone walking mostly abroad in dry heat, where this is heavy and hot.
What we checked
- Meindl’s benchmark UK hillwalking boot, with full nubuck uppers for boggy ground. Ellis Brigham
