Has anyone got Meindl Borneo boots? They seem to have very good reviews, and are leather with leather linings rather than leather lined with Gortex.
I am on my third pair of Meindl Bhutans which are great, but I have found that after a couple of years hard use the leather cracks noticeably, particularly at the front sides where they crease. Eventually the Gortex starts to leak and the time comes to replace them.
I am now considering the Borneos because it seems that despite the lack of a Gortex lining they are waterproof, but the leather is thicker and of better quality, and less likely to crack.
I'd be interested to learn from anyone who has got Borneos, what they think of them? Pros and Cons
Thanks in advance
