I tend to mix the info people share - whom I hold some understanding of working leather in a similar field of work or outdoor activity and my impression wearing the stiff boot off the bat.
It all sits in front of my ankle if that’s what you’re asking.
Yep. mtmuley
This. A recommendation is just a starting point and if the boot doesn’t fit your foot it’s relatively worthless.
It was more about the height I guess.
I agree but I am somewhat limited for a mountain boot here in the flat lander area I live in.
It doesn’t go to the top but it’s a tall boot so it’s well above the ankle.
Mail order and return them. It’s cheaper in the long run than a pair that doesn’t work.
I agree, good to get a quality base from experienced people (such as this thread inquires), then try what works best from the recommendations...
They list them as stiff, how do they flex at the toes?
Who’s not listening?
Was back and forth banter with freaks and muleys. All good fun.
Looks like that brand only comes in D width. I tend to run wides, shame because they have some nice options on the web site.
Comfort Fit® Hunter 400
Meindl built the perfect insulated waterproof hunting boot to get you from opening day to that last winter blizzard. 9" Leather uppers with Meindl's exclusive Comfort Fit last and cork footbeds, these boots provide extra room in the toe box and mold to your feet for a custom feel.

That would work, lots of reviews on how they are not water proof, or feet getting wet from the morning dew. That kinda kills the deal on the summits.
Meindl boots are generous in the toe box compared to Italian boots (in general). I wear a 14 medium or a 13 wide normally. My Cabela's meindl boots are a 13 medium and they fit well. I like the meindl boots more than the lows Tibet's I also have.
