I don't disagree with your statement about the Redhead crap but the Cabela's in EH CT still has Meindl's in stock


The few they are carrying now are nowhere near the same as the ones several years ago.
The old perfekt hunter and hikers were darn good boots. As well as the Denali and the Alaskan.
The new perfekt light hiker is a cheap shoe not a heavy duty boot.
Even the "good" Cabelas Meindls were a bit lesser than true Meindls, IMO. I have a pair of Denali's that I'm happy with, but will go with real Meindls or something from Lathrop and Sons next go around.
