Brooks, had some issue with Meindls, was dropped as a dealer and may no longer be in business.

There are a few Meindl dealers here, but, I would look at Scarpas, Lowas and Hanwags as well as the recent "stitchdown" models by Zamberlan.

Scarpa "Activ" is a model that impresses me and I love my Zamberlan Nuvaluos, worn daily for 3 years and on second Vibram soles.
