Mongol gutals or gutuls (singular: "gutal", mong. гутал) are leather boots that are a traditional footwear of Mongolia.

Gutals can be used especially as horseback riding and wrestling footwear.However, It is still not the authentic Mongol gutal.It has entered Mongolia from Tibet during 17th century.
Gutals are still used by the modern ethnic Mongols.
In the 2020 video game Ghost of Tsushima, it is possible to find an artifact item that represents traditional Mongolian gutal boots. There is some speculation that, in the comic book "Dragon Ball", a character called Gokū regularly wears boots that might be originally inspired by gutals.
