MEINDL Black Cobra GTX® black

The sporty MEINDL combat boot - a lightweight of approx. 500 grams

The MEINDL Black Cobra GTX® is a completely newly developed, highly air-permeable combat boot made of highly breathable upper materials with a very sporty look.
The high-quality and supple leather, as well as a smooth-running and very flexibly adaptable lacing provide for a comfortable carrying, whereby however hold and stability are nevertheless ensured. The heel seat can be regulated by two textile loops at ankle height. The robustness of the boot is supported by double seams in the entire shaft area. A flexion zone above the heel ensures optimum mobility of the shaft. Air-permeable padding foams, which are only glued at certain points, pad the sides, the flap, the cuff and the shaft ends and thus increase wearing comfort. The comfortably padded flap made of breathable material and leather reinforcements round off the excellent wearing comfort. The GORE-TEX® lining makes these boots waterproof and breathable at the same time.
The Meindl Contagrip® Trail sole* (adhesive-twisted design) is resistant to oil, petrol and acids. The Contagrip® system protects the foot from below, but at the same time allows a natural rolling movement thanks to the tread design and the flex system with optimised positioning of the cleats. The very non-slip sole profile with integrated "traction control" provides the best grip and slip resistance for all indoor and outdoor ground conditions and quick changes of direction, even in extreme terrain.
This high quality rubber outsole is built over a nylon heel cup that offers high strength and stability. The continuous midsole provides good cushioning and a perfect feeling to the ground, the integrated "stone shield" protects the foot from below (pushing stones through etc.). The continuous shank stabilizer ensures high lateral, buckling and torsional stability (torsional stiffness). The special last offers a wide stand, as well as a flat forefoot. Together with the enormously stable heel fixation, a secure hold of the foot in the shoe is also achieved.
