La Sportiva Sandstone GTX-XCR Hiking Shoe - Men's

Item #LSP0069 | 1 in Stock

Not for me either.....

By Ranked #1116 - Men's Hiking Shoes October 17, 2008

This is the second pair of boots I ordered online even after I said I would never do it again based on my not-so-good results after my first pair. All my hiking boots are La Sportiva because they usually fit my foot well however these did not. I have a very rigid foot with a very high arch and the way the tongue is stitched in these shoes, I could not fit my foot in there with my orthodics. I use orthodics in my Trango's and Makalu's with no problem but not so much here. I ended up selling them to a friend who had the same foot size as me and he loves them.
