Mate i'v had meindl,lowa's,hanwag's etc etc and the meindl are class butr the best boot on the market in my opinion is the new british army goretex pro-boot..

I have 2 pairs and i love them..High leg..Suitable for cold weather...goretex..vibram soles.They really are a class act..you can pick them up on ebay for £79.99

Here's a link to a good ebay seller of the boots..Take my word as i have quite an unhealthy obsession in outdoor footwear and i also sell boots too.!!

Not seen the new british boot lads are on about yet, but the meindl and lowa are certainly good boots. The irish army dont use either though. The magnum non waterproof and the Haix goretex are they two issued. Haix not worth a curse no angle support at all.
