The Meindl Rapide GTX wide fit shoe is part of the Comfort-Fit Wellness Sport range, offering a wider fit than other styles alongside a superbly cushioned footbed. Constructed from lightweight suede leather and mesh uppers the Rapide GTX walking shoe is durable yet supple. The addition of a GORE-TEX lining ensures it has waterproof protection keeping your feet dry in all circumstances and an Air Active footbed aids the ventilation of fresh air into the shoe. The Comfort-Fit of the Rapide GTX means that the shoe is wider at the front, giving extra room for movement particularly at the foot’s flex point. It does so whilst remaining secure at the heel ensuring a sturdy and supportive fit. Equipped with a Meindl Comfort Sport sole the Rapide GTX has excellent grip on a variety of surfaces, an easy roll for maximum comfort and a sharp edged heel to help when hill-walking.

How To Care For Your Meindl Rapide Lady GTX
- Preparation: Take the footbed out, so it can dry out. If you also want to wax your boots, take out the bootlaces.
- Cleaning: Remove the worst of the dirt under running water with a brush; also remove dirt and stones from the sole.
- Hygiene: To improve the odour of your boots, clean the inside of your boots with luke-warm water and a brush. This doesn’t hurt the lining. Leather linings without GORE-TEX® can be cleaned with washing soap; only use water on linings with GORE-TEX®.
- Drying: Never dry boots in direct sunlight or on heat-generating units such as radiators or stoves. Wet leather is very sensitive to heat and “burns” easily (i.e. it becomes brittle and hard, and then gets cracked).
When the lining is wet, stuff boots with newspaper (don’t forget to remove later!). Dry boots keep their shape perfectly with wooden boot trees. - Spraying: It’s best to do this when the boots are not quite dry. The pores are still open and the spray penetrates deeper. Cordura can only be sprayed, leather also requires regular waxing.
- Tip for nubuck boots: Waxing changes the boots’ appearance. The leather gets smoother and darker, but this is a perfectly normal, harmless process! The leather is “fed” and the seams become more stable.
- Hooks and Eyelets: Protect against corrosion with wax or Vaseline.
