Vasque Super Alpinista Mountaineering Boot - Men's - 2006

On everything from peak bagging to technical ice climbing, the Vasque Super Alpinista is a step ahead of the competition. Vasque created a whole new category of boot when they started using Exo-Therm composite uppers. This patented construction creates a boot that is warmer and more waterproof than leather while maintaining flexibility and precision that plastic just can't match. The icing on the cake is the Stealth Rubber sole, which provides more friction than standard boot soles for the sections of slick rock found on many hard alpine climbs.

Bottom Line: A precision boot for the big mountains.

Leather or Plastic? Get the benefits of both!

Confused by the choice between non-water resistant leather or hard plastic boots? This boot is an excellent middle ground. The boot is made of a thick fabric surrounded by a flexible plastic, combined with a quick lacing system and excellent in-step crampon compatible soles. It takes some breaking in and as usual TRY BEFORE YOU BUY with any boot. I wear two sets of socks (main and liner) to prevent blisters and fill the boots and they fit perfectly. Also, these are mountaineering boots and will not serve well for extended hiking (there is a full shank preventing sole flexation).
