Summer boots (R-EVO GTX Mens)
This Summer/Autumn I’ve had a pair of probably the best light boots I’ve ever owned, Scarpa R-EVO GTX. Also probably the most comfortable boots I’ve ever owned its akin to wearing a pare of slippers on the fells!!
Plus points
– Ultra light (suede upper)
– Cool on the feet, I only ever use one light pair of socks with them.
– Elastic tongue and sock fit construction which means not much if any chafing.
– Solid grips, I’ve only slipped over a handful of times! Most boots now have composite soles which can be too hard and offer a terrible grip I’ve found. Scarpa collaborated with Vibram for these.
Negative
– This is definitely a summer boot, they can’t handle heavy wet conditions even though they are Gortex lined.
