Review: Top quality, after years of use I bought a second pair. - I used this very same model for many years. Not sure when it first came out (mine has the black color around the ankle, this model is red in that area). Super traction. Zero complaints about wear and tear. I see somebody posted pictures of a torn shoe. Hard to believe this was from regular use. Who is this shoe for? Think Dolomites. Think working as a guide. Think Via Ferrata. Can you "scramble" - sure. Can you climb - absolutely no. Toe-box is wide and comfortable for all of the above and will not feel right when you climb. How is the traction. Superb. How does it feel after a long day. It feels perfect. Do you look fine both on the mountain and in the coffee shop at the base - yup. It has enough color to look "happy", it is subdued enough to look pro, and it brings the La Sportiva creds which are impeccable. ... And this is why I got a second pair after years of use. Afraid they will discontinue that design.
Review: Great all around shoe for hiking - Great shoe for hiking. Solid and great grip in all conditions. Water resistant but not water proof. Toe box is small but creates a snug fit. Go 1/2 a size more than usual for comfortable fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great all around shoe for hiking
*by A***R on June 4, 2024*

Great shoe for hiking. Solid and great grip in all conditions. Water resistant but not water proof. Toe box is small but creates a snug fit. Go 1/2 a size more than usual for comfortable fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small/narrow toe box…
*by A***A on September 10, 2025*

They run a half size small. This is critically important for several reasons: (1) The toe box is on the smaller side, so on the ascent it’s not a problem, but on any steep descent you might find it super uncomfortable on the toes. If you’re 10.5, buy an 11. (2) Sock choice becomes difficult because while the ankles might be supported with your normal size, the toes might be cramped in the narrow design. If ordered a half size larger you might find the sock okay for the toe box but looser at the ankle, making it easier to rub or slip out. All in all the shoe is very comfortable on the sole, with adequate ankle support, but I was disappointed in the toe box. Most climbers want something wider to splay their toes to grip rounded or sharp holds.
