  • Fully-gusseted and padded tongues keep out debris and water while relieving lacing pressure
  • Full rubber randing protects feet and uppers from abrasion and bumps while enhancing edging ability on thin edges

      Hiked 6 miles of high alpine terrain in. Climbed Water Ice for 6 Hours. Hiked 6 miles of high alpine terrain out. These babies performed BEAUTIFULLY! It was my first time wearing them! My feet were NEVER sore, NEVER cold (we had snowy approach!) and NEVER sweaty!! The rubber was sticky enough for some steep tallus. They fit and worked well with the G14 crampons. Love 'em and I'm picky! Now go climb something!

      Comments about La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX Mountaineering Boots - Women's:

      Comfort level high, no blisters with this boot! Did well with heavy loads, great grip on wet surfaces, ascending/descending on granite with water flowing down. Performed great on dry alpine, talus, scree, secure foot plants in snow with/without crampons, great ankle support, feet stayed dry in the rain. First gripe: before my feet touched snow, they were freezing early summit morning and spring snow conditions proved to be a challenge for these boots even with gaiters on; major post-holing. My feet were soaked, cold and not happy. Second gripe: the Gortex fabric doesn't hold up, after 3 backpacking trips (12K'- 14K') they already are wearing out on the outer side of the boot, near the small toe. For the price of this boot, I would expect the wear to last longer. I'd only recommend this boot for any condition other than deep, wet snow conditions.

        Mountaineering, including talus slopes, scree, ice, snow. Used them for some Class 5 peaks, never having to change into my rock climbing shoes.

        These are really comfortable on many different types of terrain. All of my epic 12 to 15 hour days have been in these boots and my feet are consistently happy.

        They hold crampons well; I have no hesitation wearing them on ice routes.

        Comments about La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX Mountaineering Boots - Women's:

        These fit great and go from dirt to snow to crampons. They've been in rainstorms, whiteouts and deep snow. They dry so quickly and fit so well, I've done Rainier (east and south) as well as Jefferson with these. Versatile. BUT the seams are totally falling apart where the Gore-tex meets the rubber - all around the toe area and the fabric around the ankle on one shoe only is shredding to bits. So, great...for about a year. A lot of money for a year.

          Comments about La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX Mountaineering Boots - Women's:

          I have had these boots over a year, and they were comfortable from the start, and still are today. From day hikes to week long back-packing trips with a heavy pack, to snow, ice, scree and boulders, my feet have been comfortable, dry, warm, and not felt tired, even after very long (16+hour) days. Crampons go on and off easily, but remain in place. I recommended them to a friend, and she loves hers, too. They have replaced all my boots, except my light hikers. Need I say more? And mine have held up well, with very little sign of wear.
