La Sportiva Trango Alpine GTX Mountaineering Boot - Yellow/Black

Weighing just 1.45 kg per pair (size 42), the La Sportiva Trango Alpine GTX delivers featherlight agility without compromising alpine protection. Its semi-automatic crampon compatibility and Gore-Tex® Performance Comfort waterproofing make it a reliable partner for technical routes, via ferrata, and glacier travel.

Overview

Engineered for demanding alpine environments, the Trango Alpine GTX combines a water-repellent Cordura® upper with Honey-Comb Guard™ and FlexTec 3 technology for abrasion resistance and natural flex. The 3D Flex System supports the ankle during lateral movements, while the full rubber rand shields against rock and ice. A high-density polyurethane shank provides torsional stability for precise edging and front-pointing.

What stands out

• Gore-Tex® Performance Comfort lining keeps feet dry while allowing breathability during high-output ascents.
• La Sportiva Cube outsole by Vibram® with Impact Brake System™ enhances grip and reduces impact on descents.
• Low-density PU, EVA, and TPU midsole insert balances cushioning and rigidity for long approaches.
• 4mm insulating Ibi-Thermo footbed adds warmth on cold rock and snow.
• Traditional lacing with hooks and loops ensures a precise, secure fit.
