    Exellent boots great fit BETTER than the standard DUtch army Meindl fox series.

    The problem with the Meindl ....The sole will not last 4 months of deplyment.

    Thanks J.

    These are still holding up well since I posted these up, the only fault I have discovered is the grey rubber toe cap has come unglued from the suede.

    Interesting the Dutch are using Meindl's too.

    Thanks for looking Wink

    Hi J,yes I guessed you were talking from first hand experience, and like yourself I have many Army boots I use in my spare time, but I do not have 50 pairs!!!

    My most comfy are German Mountain boots ( Lowa branded) these got me through many a winter riding my bike to work and back Smile
