Description
A comfortable, lightweight alternative to similar mountaineering boots that weigh a couple of pounds more, the award-winning La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX features a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX lining to protect your feet from rain and snowmelt without stifling the interior vapor transfer. One of the best features is a ground-breaking 3D Flex ankle hinge that allows side flexibility without compromising the front-pointing stability. Compared to other traditional climbing boot designs, the La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX is almost luxurious in comfort and support, which means youll probably end up using it for backpacking and just about any other backcountry activity you can think of this season.

Trango S Evo - ideal multi-purpose boot.

The current version of the shoe includes a gore-tex lining and is an ideal multi-purpose boot for long days of easy-moderate mountaineering (up to D snow, AI3 in my case and 5.8 rock - the latter well-protected). Good alternative to the Garmont Tower GTX if you have wider feet than the Garmont sole.
Of course, they are light so don't take them if you plan:
- cold (winter and/or altitude)
- scree (they have some stiching rather low on the boot that will not survive intensive scree descents).

These boots are great for mountaineering. They fit my foot well, have great traction, and are suprisingly precice. I can climb near my limit on edges and wider cracks due to the solid Vibram sole and the full rand. They do show a little more wear than I would like after almost a year of heavy use, however.
