An excellent insulated high mountain and winter climbing leather boot and ideal for technical use on high altitude terrain and glaciers, also for Scottish winter climbing.
Although originlly designed before curved ice axes, Sportiva got it so right with this one that it still sells well, mainly because it seems to fit the majority of customers really well.
This revamped version features the innovative triple laminate lining “Synergy” and the insulating Ibi-Thermo footbed gives the boot exceptional insulation from the cold; there is also a removable insulating footbed. The EZ OUT pull loop (Patented) facilitates the unlocking of the lace lock. The new midsole HP3 eliminates any wear and tear problems with the toe-box, using a combination of high performance technical materials.
Half continental sizing and availability up to a size 50 ensures a good fit and enduring popularity. Each pair takes four weeks to make by hand.
