Note: These are Leather lined boots without a waterproof liner. Read Description Below.

When Meindl first introduced the Borneo 2 MFS walking boots to the UK market, they quickly became one of the top-selling products. Crafted in Germany with high-quality Nubuck leather uppers, these boots provide protection and durability on any terrain.

The classic leather lining enhances breathability and showcases expert craftsmanship. Technical features include a secure Digafix lacing system, a Memory Foam System (MFS) for reduced pressure on downhill walks, a Meindl Multigriff Vibram sole for superior traction and shock absorption, and an Air-Active footbed to control moisture.

Categorized as B by Meindl, this boot offers both support and flexibility.

The Borneo 2 MFS is especially suitable for dry climates due to the enhanced breathability of the leather lining.

Meindl Borneo 2 MFS walking boot features:

  • Nubuck leather with wax uppers
  • Leather lining
  • Memory Foam System
  • Digafix lacing
  • Air-Active Soft Print drysole footbed
  • Meindl Multigriff by Vibram
  • Meindl Rating: B
  • 790g

NOTE: These are leather lined boots and do not have a waterproof liner. Water repellancy can be improved by using Meindl Wet Proof and Sportwax. Whilst some prefer the breathability and comfort of a leather lined boot, if you need it to be waterproof please look at the Meindl Bhutan or Burma.

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.

Wetproof spray increases the water resistance of your boots and shoes. This should be applied twice a year after cleaning and prior to waxing or conditioning. It is suitable for leather, suede and fabric footwear.

Meindl Borneo 2 boots

Great boots and great service, would buy again from Hill and Dale

solid and comfortable

It has to be noted that this is B rated boots so the sole in not bendable and ankle is solidly fixed so it is not light or springy . Very good for forefoot pain , hallux rigidus as a daily ware , Almost no sweating unlike in my other shoes. Less sweat then in Gortex boots and it naturally waterproof . They look even better with wax applied on lower 1/3. Looking forward for snow and ice in February :)

Meindl Borneo 2 MFS Boots

Great boots, my 2nd pair. So good to have pure leather and no gore-tex for when the weather is slightly warmer. Very comfy and breaking in nicely having done two walks. Good grippy sole.

Reliable and Comfortable

I have tried several well known makes and models of walking boot over the years, but keep coming back to Meindl Borneo. My feet are bang on imperial size 10, so need a boot in euro size 44.5 to obtain a good fit; something that not all manufacturers offer. In addition, my feet are a little wider than normal; not much, but enough to make the narrower Italian boots too narrow. The Borneos fit me perfectly and require the minimum of breaking in, after which they are as comfortable as a walking boot can be and the digifix lacing system is great.
They aren't lined with a waterproof bootie, so though I have never had a pair that leaked, in prolonged wet conditions, a certain amount of dampness will soak through the leather to the inside of the boot, but that is normal for all leather boots and as I dislike Goretex liners, that is fine by me.
The outer sole tread is great for general hill walking, though as always with Vibram soles, one has to take care on wet rock surfaces, as they tend to slip easily.
If I have one criticism, it would be of the choice of leather used. Nubuck leather looks good, especially when new, but I would prefer a more practical, full grained leather.
All in all, an excellent superbly made boot.

Great boots and a great supplier

I bought a pair of these last years for work & general use, having walked the Americas with a pair years & years ago.
These were equally as comfortable as they were back in the day hence buying another pair. I bought the new pair for personal use as the older pair are used daily in a damaging environment (cement & mortar dust), they are still going strong - I use the Meindl Sportwax for Leather Footwear to help keep them in reasonable condition whenever I remember to (not often enough)
I do use a different insole (Superfeet Trailblazer) which improves (for me) what is otherwise a great boot.
Furthermore and most importantly I can not praise the customer care of Hill & Dale highly enough: they made the changing of the boot size last year a dream rather than the anticipated nightmare. Which is why I returned to buy from them again - plus they are competitively priced.
I should also point out that I received these very quickly considering they were out of stock and I ordered them during the pre Christmas period
As for the boot I find them comfortable from the first day of use with no breaking in required (for me).
A greatv experience all round - a BIG thank you to Hill and Dale.

Mud, mud, mud

But still warm dry feet - so far! Always use Meindl as they suit my feet. Trying leather lined version this time since Gore-Tex liner always cracks after a year or two. Borneo leather seems better quality too. Ask me in 4 years how I got on!

Comfy from the off

My last Meindl boots lasted 10 years and took me on expeditions and long distance routes in the UK with ease. They're comfy from the off with little to no breaking in needed. The eyelet placing is spot on to retain the heel in the heel cup and prevent lifting. The memory foam ankle cuff moulds to your ankle and fits like a glove. I had a problem with my new pair but Hill and Dale dealt with it rapidly and professionally. In all great boots.
