Meindl RIB Retten/Befreien GTX

The Meindl RIB Retten/Befreien GTX is a men’s winter shoe designed to keep you steady and protected when temperatures drop and snow settles. With its full-grain leather construction and a GORE-TEX lining, it’s built to handle cold, wet conditions without weighing you down.

The leather upper in a regular width offers durable resistance against snow and slush while still allowing natural breathability for comfortable wear. As a dedicated winter shoe, it delivers reliable support and grip on slippery surfaces, making it a solid choice for everyday wear in town or light winter hiking.

The “GTX” designation stands for GORE-TEX, a waterproof yet breathable membrane. It prevents external moisture—rain, slush, packed snow—from entering the shoe, while allowing sweat vapor to escape. This balance keeps feet dry from both outside water and internal perspiration.
