Good comfortable boot

I have used the boots for a couple of years now and have found them comfortable and suitable for summer walking in hilly country. I would not use them for scrambling as I find them too flexible but would recommend them for long hill days in nontechnical terrain.

I hope they last forever!

As someone had previously mentioned, bit tight when first work on the width. They soon shaped to to my foot, whilst on a 8km hike.
Maybe better than my best Merrells.
The Gore-Tex really does work. Now waiting for the Summer to test the breathability.

Hi Bob, no this shoe is not suitable for crampons. Best regards!

My apolgies, I meant to ask about the TX5 (five) - will they take crampons?

The TX5 is also much too flexible and not crampon compatible. If it's a La Sportiva boot that you're interested in then have a look at the following options:

Hi Emma, the two picture colour variants we have listed above the size chart are the ones we have in stock :-)

It's just that one of the pictures for the pine/kiwi variant is less bright than the others and I prefer that, guess the bolder blue is more accurate though?

Hi Emma - the bolder blue is a previous colour variant that we are no longer stocking - the darker pine colour is the accurate product depiction in this case :-)
