Excellent for everything out doors. Good protection on rough ground and comfy when wearing all day on big mountain climbs/walks.
Not much difference if any with the GTX version, maybe just the price and slight weight advantage?

Probably the best pair of approach shoes I’ve ever owned! Very comfortable, hard wearing and grippy even on wet rock. Also great for summer hillwalking on easy terrain. They are a bit on the heavy side though.

I wear a UK size 9 in my Meindl walking shoes.
Thank you.
Hi Mark, These would be described as true to size but knowing that Meindl are wide fitting , the regular fit here will not suit your needs. Perhaps have a look at a slightly wider fitting Scarpa approach shoe ,the Zodiac.

Extremely robust and comfortable, would definitely recommend them. The sole is cushioning exceptionally well, while the slightly elevated heel helps with feet fatigue.

Scarpa has always been my go-to shoe brand for all my outdoor activities. These shoes replaced my last Scarpa approach shoes and they don't disappoint. They are supremely comfortable, they are stiff which is great for getting over tough rocky terrain and the protection around the toe gives your confidence in every step. I highly recommend.
