The Borneo 2 MFS is an update on Meindls classic all leather strong, hiking & trekking boot. Lined with a soft leather for enhanced comfort & superior breathability the Borneo is not guaranteed waterproof. However if you regularly clean & maintain the leather uppers these fabulous boots will provide natural protection from the weather for many years. The new model features enhanced lacing through rollerball fixings that allow an even lace tension right up the front of the boot as you pull the laces tight. An updated EVA midsole provides enhanced cushioning & durability. The MFS (Memory Foam System) works by placing durable memory foam inserts in the tongue, heel cheeks & over foot areas to mould around the ankle & heel area providing an almost custom fit. The Meindl Multigiff sole by Vibram has a high skid resistance at the edges, excellent shock absorption through its EVA midsole layer- & abrasion resistance, all to ensure you remain safely on your feet supported by a tough & stable platform.
