After trying to replace (like for like) a much loved pair of leather gtx boots from Austria, and owning ‘many’ pairs of Garmont Dragontail shoes, I settled for these. They’re a great pair of boots and I don’t know why I didn’t consider them earlier.
Update - Sadly after wearing these boots a few times I noticed I had a wet sock on one foot. I contacted Alpinetrek for support and had to send them back for a refund. Not over the moon as the boots were a great fit and I really liked them. But they need to do what it says on the tin, when it states waterproof and Goretex. Due to this I now wouldn’t recommend them, unless you don’t plan to get wet, but then I guess you’d buy a more breathable boot.

Hi Lee,
These are not a crampon compatible boot.
Hi Ken,
No. The tongue is stitched to roughly just below the second lacing lug from the top.
