Finally worn out Great boot. The sole is finally getting worn out after plenty of abuse. Waterproof if treated regularly. Fit right out of the box. No blisters EVER! Getting a replacement pair soon.

Alaskan Firefighting Solid boot, great fit, but a little warm. OK in AK but I have a feeling your feet would start to rot in NV, even with good socks. Other then that I love them. Not one blister or hotspot yet. Super easy break in and seems to wear well. Only have used them for a couple of months but I am hoping for at least two season. Much better then Whites or Nicks in AK for those who care.

Wildland Firefighting Excellent right out of the box. Used these for wildland firefighting. Finally made the switch from White's to todays technology. La Sportivas are lighter, more comfortable, just a better boot. The only draw back is that they are warm, but that can be mitigated with good wicking socks. All my crewmwmberS are switching to the Glaciers
