FAQs
Where is Meindl Made?
Meindl boots and shoes are primarily crafted in Germany, a country with a rich heritage in footwear manufacturing. Despite the rarity of boot factories in Germany, Meindl stands out with over 200 skilled artisans who meticulously execute up to 200 steps to create each high-quality boot. While many of Meindl's leather boots are produced across Europe, including in Hungary, Slovenia, and Italy, their synthetic footwear is manufactured in Vietnam. Meindl has maintained a strong, collaborative relationship with their Vietnamese factory for 15 years, ensuring every product meets their exacting standards. Annually, Meindl produces over 1 million pairs of boots and shoes, leveraging expertise from multiple global locations.
Can Meindl Boots be resoled?
Yes, Meindl boots, including their hiking, trekking, and mountain ranges, can be resoled, ensuring long-lasting durability. If the overall condition of your boots remains good you can send them to Meindl through a Meindl specialist dealer. In Ireland, customers can use Great Outdoors, the largest Meindl specialist dealer in the country, for this service.

Caring for Your Meindl Footwear:
- Cleaning: After each adventure, wash your boots with warm water. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.

- Conditioning: Use Meindl care products to treat your boots and preserve their quality and comfort.
