This is what other customers say:
Lightweight and comfortable, wore them on a trip to Amsterdam and couple walks in the surrounding hills. the shoe got comfortably very quick (but not immediate) and didn't give me any blisters. I got it nicely discounted and with the price ~£80 it is a lot value for a money.
sole is rigid enough that it shield the feet from rocks and yet Insole is cushioned enough to provide comfort. As for Alpintrek transaction and delivery was smooth, and shoes arrived just on time.

Very grippy and comfortable shoe. Sizing is tricky, as La Sportiva does not follow standard sizing, so usually, sizing down half a size is a good idea (compared to Hoka, Scarpa, NNormal, Merrell, Inov-8, and many other brands). The only problem is that the upper part is a bit rigid, so you must loosen the shoelaces before use. The shoe does not have an extremely long duration, especially on technical alpine terrain, but for the price range, it's an acceptable tradeoff. It's perfect for your average runs, but for races, there are better (yet pricier) alternatives on the market.
