Why We Like The La Sportiva Mega Ice Evo Mountaineering Boot

The La Sportiva Mega Ice Evo Mountaineering Boot is a perfect blend of climbing shoes and mountaineering boots, making it a top choice for ice-climbing enthusiasts. It meets the new international standards for ice-climbing competitions and offers exceptional performance.

What sets this boot apart is its unique slipper construction that features an integrated, elastic gaiter laminated to an insulated, waterproof membrane. This design provides ultimate protection from the harsh winter elements, ensuring that you stay warm and dry even in the most challenging conditions.

The stiff carbon midsoles of the Mega Ice Evo Boot offer a light and stiff climbing base, giving you precise control and stability on the ice. These midsoles also come with threaded inserts, making it incredibly easy to swap the integrated Cassin Dry crampons with other crampons of your choice.
