I have been looking at getting into mountaineering and was wondering if these boots would be good for a beginner looking to progress? If not do you have any suggestions?

These are great boots, and would probably work just fine for you as a beginner. Personally, I'd suggest picking up the La Sportiva Makalu boots over these. They are tried and true, and only get more comfortable the more you wear them. You'll be able to climb everything you can climb with the Trango S EVOs, and be able to use them for backpacking the next weekend. You sacrifice a little extra weight for a bunch of all-around durability. Either way, you're going to be getting great boots that aren't going to hold you back.
