Great boot! Very comfortable and light. Quality is second to none. Definitely size up a half size larger when ordering La Sportiva boots. Received the package the next day. Amazing customer service!

Actually, I would probably have been okay with these, but when I took them out of the box, they looked really small and I thought they had sent the incorrect size. Upon further inspection, I found them to be (U.S.) 12s. All I can say is...Man, those are some small 12s!

I have been in the military for over 28 years and these boots are the best I've owned in quite a long time. I have owned a wide variety and never thought about purchasing a paid of La Sportiva. They did not disappoint! These are durable and light w/ no break-in period, right out of the box went on a 3 mile trek w/ no blisters. You can feel the road, rocks or other surfaces under your feet but without feeling uncomfortable. These boots provide great traction and keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

My first pair La Sportiva, I love it. Seems like I'm going to buy another pair...but I think La Sportiva has to pay attention to the lacing system of this model though.
