Post by: DaveT1963 on September 04, 2013, 10:00:00 PM
Always worn Meindl but considering trying something new.  Curious if anyone has an opinion of the four following boots

1.  Meindl Denali
2.  Cabela's ultralight by Meindl
3.  Cabela's percent hunter by Meindl
4.  Irish Setter Havoc hunting boot

I do like my Irish Setter Elkhunters. I have one pair that is 3 years old and has been worn over 750 days and they are still in excellent shape. The soles are getting thin now, but I have a new pair I am breaking in. Shawn

Hear lots of good about the Meindl boots.  I like Keens very well.  Not all leather, but good wide foot bed and comfortable.  I'm trying the Meindl's next.

I have the cabelas Meindl.  Slightly wider than normal I'd say but comfort with the cork insole is outstanding.
Now for 3 yrs very satisfied with them.

I like the Danner Elk Hunter for cool weather & for wet weather I use the LL Bean Main hunting boot.

Very happy with Meindl Perfekt hiker.  This fall will be my third elk hunting trip in them.  So far, they have kept my feet dry and continue to support my feet well, poor arches and all.
