The Bernina 2 is a classic walking boot that's part of Meindl's Comfort Fit range and offers a wider fit than a standard Meindl fit with more room around the toes and a greater boot capacity overall.  It has similar technical specification to the well known Borneo but made for wider feet. 

The Bernina 2 boots are leather-lined and have Memory Foam around the heel area for enhanced comfort and a secure fit. The technology behind Meindl's Digafix also improves heel hold and stability, preventing the foot from slipping in the boot. The leather lining makes these boots more comfortable in warmer and more humid conditions due to a cooler foot climate.

The cork Comfort Fit footbed from Meindl is known to provide a stable platform as you're standing on a wider base, whilst the defined contour allows for the natural roll of your foot when walking. Comfort Fit styles from Meindl are known for their out of the box comfort, minimal breaking in is required.

Bernina 2 walking boot features:

  • Upper: Nubuck leather with wax
  • Lining: Leather
  • Footbed: Comfort fit®, cork and fleece
  • Sole: Meindl Multigrip® 3 Alpin Light by Vibram®
  • Last: Comfort fit
  • 870g

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.

Waxed Nubuck leather boot with a leather lining and Meindl Multigrip 3 alpine Light by Vibram Available in UK full and 1/2 sizes 6 - 12 870g

Gortex

Been wanting a pair of these boots for about 2 years.
Saved my pennies and went to buy a pair.
Shop fitter said up on trying them on these are not gortex lined boots, so as gutted as I was I tried the gortex alternative which turned out to be to narrow and hurt my feet so had to walk away very disappointed with no boots…
Still really like the look and style of the boots and wish for a pair..
My wish list to Meindl would be to make them as a wide fit with a gortex liner.
I live in wales and waxed leather for waterproof boots doesn’t last the day before they give in and socks end up wet. We can all make a wish can’t we ! 😂😂😂

Bernina 2 Boots

Lets start with Hill & Dale - first class service, and boots came when they said they would (circa. 3 weeks from Germany).
This is my 5th pair of Meindl boots. I do circa. 1500 miles / year , predominantly Dog Walking and I would not buy anything else now.
Yes; they are not the cheapest - but you get what you pay for!
They are so comfortable, its like wearing slippers...!

Cheers. Ewen.

The Tough gets going

Since they were delivered these boots have trudged through torrential rain and deep snow. So comfortable in the wide fit, completely waterproof and really solid grip. Pricey but as my last pair lasted 10 years odd I’m hoping this pair will be just as good.

Comfortable out of the box.
Very well designed boots.
One of the reasons for choosing these boots is the leather upper with no goretex lining. Hard to find these days. I find my feet get too hot in goretex lined boots.
Wide fit for those with wide feet.
Cushioned insoles.
Have used them a few times in the first few weeks and am very pleased with the purchase.
Should be suitable for 3 mountain season use but not designed to use with crampons.

Nice wide boots, let down in parts

I’m on my second pair of the Belinda 2. I have wide feet that splay quite wide when weight is put on them. These boots fit well quite well, which is great as I struggle to many that do.
They are a great boot, that gives nice ankle support and lasting comfort. However, on both pairs the rubber rand have come away from the leather on both boots and in the same places, also my sole has come loose on current pair. I only use mine for walking in the woods and fields, no harsh crags. The leather build quality of the boots is great, no problems, just let down by the sole and rand, for the price I would say premature failure as there is loads of grip left……such a shame. I’ve gave them a second chance, but won’t be buying any more. I may get these resoled with new rands or just try Altberg and see if their sizing suits.

Both the product and the service from Hill and Dale Outoors are exceptional…. Took receipt of the boots within 24hrs of placing the order and they fit like a glove. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Boots delivered quickly

I have wide feet and these boots are the only ones that fit me. The price was good compared to other suppliers. They are comfortable and because they don't have a gortex lining are much less sweaty. A cork insole assists with this. They are waterproof due to the quality of the leather.
This is my second purchase of this boot .

Fabulous, comfortable boots

I've had Meindl boots for a number of years; the Comfort fit wider boots suit my really wide feet very well.These Bernina were a step-up in price for me and I was worried that the increased cost wouldn't be worth it but I was so wrong. They are so comfortable from the start, the leather lining and padded ankle cuff make for a luxurious feel on my feet. They've already had to put up with four seasons in one day of Derbyshire weather and my feet have stayed warm, dry and comfy on each occasion. I'm so pleased I took the plunge and invested in them.

The boots are a present for my husband. They are the third pair of this style/ make and we assume they’ll be as comfortable and hard wearing as the others.

I would buy through Hill and Dale again as the price was good, the website clear and the delivery prompt.

Beautifully made walking boots from Bavaria. Soft leather lining is exceptional and footbed make for a super comfort walking experience.
No Gortex for me.. Nubuck leather sprayed once with conditioner and nothing since, makes for a fine breathable foot feel. Wider toebox is what I've always needed and most other manufacturers don't offer.
The best piece of mountainwear I have ever owned.

First class service and boots

Fits perfectly and the wide fitting is perfect for my feet shape. Excellent quality leather and easy to use straight away, no breaking in needed. Only used for 5mike walks with the dogs do far. They will get a lot of use in Shetland later this year. Highly recommended if you are looking for leather boots. Bomb proof construction.
