La Sportiva N.A. Men's Nepal Evo GTX Mountaineering Boot

Fit Tip: The Nepal EVO GTX fits true to size. It has a roomy toe box for thick socks and is somewhat narrow under-foot and narrow in the heel to aid in vertical ice climbing. Do not size up if you are planning on wearing thicker socks. The Nepal also accepts all types of insoles for a more specific fit. In height, they come to just below mid-shin. Be sure to size these so that the heels do not slip in the back and you have enough room in the toe box to wiggle your toes. There is no problem with crampon fit - Cyborg, G14, Sabretooth, Dart, Sarken; no issues.

La Sportiva N.A. Men's Nepal Evo GTX Mountaineering Boot

Considered the best single leather mountaineering boot on the market, this year's evolution of the La Sportiva Men's Nepal Evo GTX Mountaineering Boot takes hardcore climbing boots to another level. From the first step, a new GORE-TEX® Duratherm lining makes the boot completely waterproof and warmer for high altitudes and extreme cold. A new breathable tongue and intergrated anatomical elastic snow gaiter keeps the foot drier, managing perspiration and big water droplets. With the addition of the patented 3-D Flex™ ankle hinge system, and sticky rubber rand the Men's La Sportiva Nepal Evo GTX Mountaineering Boot climbs better than ever. The sole has a new tapered HP3 midsole with shock absorbing polyurethane ("PU") inserts under the heel and the ball of the foot for support. A new IBS (Impact Brake System™), designed exclusively with Vibram®, softens impact on hard ground and improve traction by 20%.

Very Good for Snow
I purchased Nepal Evo GTX Mountaineering Boots for climbing Mt.Shasta. This boots are great and it's warm in early morning climbing and they keep my foot dry in sloppy snow in the afternoon. Even though I spent only a couple of weeks on machine to break-in, I didn't have any blisters.

The Ultimate Leather Mountaineering Boot
Bomber is the word for these boots. After a nuclear explosion, the only thing left alive would be cockroaches, and they will be living in La Sportiva Nepal EVO GTX mountaineering boots. The Nepal has been around for years, and the new Nepal EVO features all of the updates from Sportiva. The GTX adds warmth and reduces weight, while adding waterproofing insurance for those sloppy warm afternoon descents. From mountaineering to ice climbing, the Nepal Evo keeps your heels locked down and keeps the weight off as well for technical ascents of waterfall ice. When warmth, sensitivity, and durability are the ingredients that you need to cook up your dream alpine climb, make sure you float on using the Nepal Evo. Highly recommended for Alpinism, cold weather climbing and vertical Ice climbing. There is no inner liner; these are a true leather mountaineering boot. Please contact me if you have any questions.
