La Sportiva Nepal EVO GTX Mountaineering Boot - Men's

Item #LSP0029 | 24 in Stock

Any thoughts on this boot compared to the Batura or Mammut Mamook...

By Ranked #704 - Rock Climbing Shoes June 23, 2009

Any thoughts on this boot compared to the Batura or Mammut Mamook GTX? I'm looking for an all around water ice and alpine climbing (below 6000m) boot. I know its mostly about fit, just not sure if i'm missing something. Thanks.

Batura's much lighter weight. Not sure about the Mammut's. Another option is to go with Sportiva's TRANGO EXTREME EVO LIGHT GTX. I have used these boots for many water ice pitches as well as on long alpine climbs in winter and they excel.
