Detailed description

We used a 3.0mm Idro-Perwanger leather upper for classic mountain boot performance and fit. This is a full steel shank boot that will accept an automatic crampon and kick steps in snow all day without a crampon if needed. The protective Vibram® rubber rand adds excellent toe protection and the EZ rollerball hardware makes these boots easy to lace up.

I have had several pairs of these over the years. Not helped that one pair was destroyed by an swiss airport luggage machine/ idiot with an angle grinder? who knows.
They are great, if they fit your feet get them. I have also used briefly with crampons and find them ok, although I would not necessary want to go climbing in them, but for a few hours no problems at all. Reversed leather great. I have never had issues with leaks or build quality. The lace locks work well in adjusting the laces on the uppers and over the foot.
