The Meindl Vakuum Ultra Men is a high-cut hiking shoe built for walkers tackling varied trails. It brings together sturdy materials and advanced fit technology to support you on day hikes or longer excursions, keeping your foot stable and protected over rocks, roots and uneven ground.
Crafted from nubuck leather, this model balances durability with a bit of natural flexibility, while the regular width offers a standard fit for most foot shapes. The integrated MFS Vakuum System gently adapts to your foot’s contours for a personalized feel, and the Gore-Tex lining helps keep water out without blocking breathability. Weighing in at about 620 grams, it manages to feel substantial underfoot without weighing you down too much on the trail.
The MFS Vakuum System uses heat-reactive materials that can be moulded to your foot, smoothing out pressure points and reducing hotspots over time. Meanwhile, the Gore-Tex membrane is a thin waterproof barrier that stops external moisture yet lets sweat vapor escape, so your feet stay drier in wet conditions and more comfortable as you hike.
