What are they made of?
The uppers of Bristol shoes are made from a high-quality combination of suede and mesh. Suede, a type of leather known for its softness and durability, provides excellent resistance to wear and tear while ensuring a comfortable fit. The mesh components enhance breathability, allowing air to circulate around your feet and preventing overheating during strenuous activities.
These shoes also come with the Gore-Tex membrane. Gore-Tex is known for offering reliable waterproof protection while maintaining breathability. This lining ensures that your feet remain dry even in wet conditions by preventing water from entering the shoe, yet allowing moisture vapour to escape.
The Meindl Bristol GTX Shoes interior features the Air-Active footbed, an insole designed for excellent ventilation and moisture management. This footbed wicks away sweat and moisture from your feet, facilitating quicker evaporation and maintaining a dry, comfortable environment inside the shoe. The Air-Active footbed also offers excellent cushioning and support, which is crucial for long walks and hikes. It reduces foot fatigue and enhances overall walking comfort.
The Bristol shoes also come with The Meindl Trail Activity Sole, designed to provide traction and stability across various terrains. Constructed with a focus on grip, the Trail Activity Sole features a tread pattern that maximises contact with the ground, enhancing stability and reducing the risk of slipping. This tread design ensures you can confidently navigate a range of surfaces, from smooth pavements to uneven, rocky paths. The sole's robust construction contributes to its durability, ensuring long-lasting performance even with regular use on rough terrain.
In addition to its traction capabilities, the Meindl Trail Activity Sole offers excellent support and cushioning. This feature helps to absorb shocks and impacts, reducing stress on your feet and joints during prolonged walks or hikes.
