| Product Review: Material: 3mm Idro-Perwanger roughout leather Lining: Dri-Lex with EZ Flex2 tongue Removable Liner: No Sole: La Sportiva MPE with protective rubber rand Crampon Compatible: Yes, semi-automatic Designed for general mountaineering, snowfields, and difficult backpacking, versatility defines the La Sportiva Makalu alpine boot, La Sportiva's most popular mountaineering boot. A 3mm roughout silicone-impregnated leather upper is durable and easy to weatherproof. The Makalu feels comfortable right out of the boxthe cut of the ankle cuff and Dri-Lex lining cut down on break-in time significantly. A locking lace system makes adjusting the fit a breeze, and the Makalu is crampon compatible. The La Sportiva Makalu is hand-made by Italian craftsmen at the foot of the Dolomite Mountain Range. They put 70 years of mountaineering and boot-making experience into the Makalu so you can climb, hike and explore without worrying that your boots aren't up to the challenge. |
