The Veneto GTX is a mens wide fit trail boot from Meindl, excellent for those with wider feet. As part of the Comfort-Fit range, introduced to offer an easier, comfier wear, the Veneto GTX provide a supportive yet relaxed fit. Crafted by hand in Meindl’s German factory, the Veneto GTX is made from waxed Nubuck leather providing a classic style alongside durability and protection against abrasion. With the addition of a GORE-TEX lining the boot is fully waterproof and breathable. The Comfort-Fit footbed is made from cork and is more supportive than the standard footbed. It gives a wider surface area to stand on allowing for more movement of the toes and around the flex point, whilst keeping a firm hold around the heel. Adorned with a fleece lining this footbed makes the Veneto undeniably comfy and perfect for all day use. Complete with a Meindl Comfort Hiker II sole, giving fantastic traction on a variety of surfaces, the Veneto GTX is ideal for country walks and light hiking.

 Veneto GTX walking boot feature guide:
* Waxed Nubuck leather uppers
* GORE-TEX lining
* Comfort-Fit, cork and fleece footbed
* Meindl Comfort Hiker II
* Waterproof protection

Comfort Fit Range. Wider fit than the standard Meindl fit. Waxed Nubuck leather uppers with Gore-Tex lining. Meindl Comfort Fit Hiker 2 sole unit with Cork and fleece footbed for added comfort Meindl Rating: A - 470g

Conditioning and proofing spray keeps nubuck leather and suede protected. The boots can be treated when the uppers aren’t quite dry – it ensures they’ll remain supple. Applying a little wax to the hooks and eyelets will protect them from corrosion.

Sportwax is a natural product formulated to condition and proof leather. Apply it with a sponge or cloth and don’t forget the tongues of the boots. Rub the wax in well. There’s no need to heat it, as this could reduce boot breathability. Waxing changes the appearance of the leather, making it smoother and darker. Applying a little to the hooks and eyelets also protects them against corrosion.

Nicely made

Nice quality boots, appear very well made. Found them quite uncomfortable in the big toe joint area for quite a while, which is really unusual for me - I can normally wear any reputable brand new boots straight out of the box no problem. I can’t really tell what the grip will be like in the wet as it hasn’t rained! Biggest test for me is whether they stay waterproof longer than a few months, I’ve had to return several top brands because they’ve failed. I think that manufacturers appear to accept the occasional returns due to leaks, as the majority of boots they sell aren’t worn every day (like mine) and last the year leak free. (At which point the warranty’s expired). I really hope this pair last!
I will report back later in the year…….
Well it rained, & the left boot started leaking round the toes. I’ve returned them to Hill & Dale & they’ve sent them to Meindl for their opinion. A real shame, because they were getting really comfortable & I found the grip was better than Vibram soles.

Classic Brown Leather Walking Boots

For the last 30 years of daily gardening and hiking I have always bought Brasher walking boots. I've needed 3 pairs, each pair lasting roughly 10 years.

Since Brasher was taken over the quality has dipped so I this is my first pair of Meindl walking boots. Early days yet but they seem sturdy, well built and comfortable.

Hopefully they too will last me 10 years!

Loving my new Meindl Veneto boots, still wearing them in, hoping they give me years of service…

Meindl Veneto GTX Wide Fit Walking Boots

Third pair of these which must say something! I use them as my everyday boots/shoes. A pair lasts about 1200 miles and 12-16 months. I wish they’d make the soles from a single material instead of different pieces, as some of the light grey parts come away after about 6months. When they start to do this I just snip them off. However - they very comfortable. (Not suitable for more extreme terrain.)

Meindl Veneto GTX wide fit walking boots.

Very well made traditional walking boots that look like they will last many years. They are comfortable and easy to put on and take off, there is one pair of 'hooks' at the top rather than two or three pairs making it quick and easy to lace up / undo.
Size wise, if you wear ordinary socks, same as shoe size but if you wear very thick socks you may want to try going up half a size.
They are warm and comfortable without being 'sweaty', the soles giving very good grip on the gravel path / low fell terrain they were designed for (Meindl class 'A').
The leather around the top of the boots is soft and supple where the boot meets your leg so no friction rub rashes.
Made of full leather panels so they clean easily and to its easy to apply the recommended Meindl 'sportwax' coating.
Overall, very impressed with the Boots so bought my wife a pair too.

After initial problems with left ankle affecting sciatic nerve, they are very comfortable, but perhaps not as much as my previous Meindl. Not sure why the boot is a 9 but the insole is marked 8 1/2.
For me it is a tight 9 - it is not as spacious as I was expecting.

Worth every penny

Normally I'd put 30 miles on a pair of boots before I considered them broken in but these I just started wearing and they've been fine.

Been a fan of Meindl for years and, in recent years, their comfort fit range in particular; these being my 3rd comfort fit pair. This latest pair are again superbly comfortable and shout quality. Wouldn't but anything else.

Now only purchase Meindl foot wear, due to their fit and value for money.
And, only tend to use Hill & Dale as they give the option of half sizes with free delivery.

Spoke with Ben from Hill and Dale over the phone about my requirements and my feet! Approaching retirement age I find I need a supportive and comfortable boot more than ever. He recommended these and they have proved to be just that, comfortable from the start and after a couple of reasonably long walks my feet and back feel a lot better than after using my old Keens. Thanks Ben, great service and great price too.

Great boots, great service.

Ordered these boots to replace my previous pair of the same model, which are now over 10 years old. I have a short foot length, but a wide forefoot and often struggle to find boots to fit. These Meindls, with ‘comfort fit’ are perfect.. My old pair were as comfortable as a pair of old slippers. They were still waterproof, but the sole had seen better days, hence the replacement. New boots have bedded in nicely with just a week or so of use, and hopefully will see me through the next decade. Hill and Dale easy to order through, and delivery was prompt. Price was competitive with other suppliers.

Greatly atherosclerosis boots

I first bought a pair of these boots many years ago in Lake District. They get plenty of wear twice a day dog-walking in acid soil. When they finally wore out I bought exactly the same Meindl Veneto again.
