Scarpa - Terra GTX - Walking boots tested

Praise vs. Criticism

I would buy these shoes again

I haven't used them a lot, but they are comfortable, light (given they are leather lined they are not ultra light), comfortable, waterproof and breathable. I personally like them in leather just for the appearance. I will report later if I find them robust and durable.
I used to have mountain boots from Scarpa that had the same feel, and that I liked a lot too.

Great boot - apart from grip

Using for several months now, hiking on hills/mountains.
Positives - Very comfortable, didn't need breaking in, and feet dry after walking through wet / marshy hills.
Only negative - Grip not as good as my other boots (Adidas). Mostly ok but caught out a couple of times.

Met my expectations, completely!

It seems, these boots provide very good price/performance ratio. The construction looks very solid.

Comfortable and robust

Quick delivery, comfortable at first wearing and robust on a variety of walks and treks. Nothing flashy but support and comfort are what counts and these boots have that!
