Footwear for technical approach, “via ferratas” and mountain hikes. The materials have been carefully selected to guarantee performance, functionality and comfort.

Our Verdict

Theses boots offer superb support and protection whilst still giving the adaptability of an approach shoe, these are a fantastic boot for day hikes but excel as a climbing boot, for more technical scrambles or more dedicated rope climbing. The durable suede offers water protection, but if you are looking for Gortex protection, have a look at the slightly heavier Scarpa Mescalito GTX. A strong, solid Vibram sole definitely give you confidence over a wide variety of terrains in all weather condition apart from maybe deep snow, and the rubber toe cap seriously offers protection as well as grip. Good support in the heel and toe box keep you mobile longer and the extended lacing system, unique to Scarpa mean you will get a fit that is tailored too you. Scarpa are industry leaders in footwear, and these shoes are a testament to that. .
