About this product

The La Sportiva Aequilibrium ST GTX Men’s Mountaineering Boots are engineered for demanding alpine conditions. Featuring ePE GORE-TEX Performance Comfort waterproofing and a Vibram Mont rubber outsole, these over-the-ankle boots offer hybrid crampon compatibility. The upper is constructed from Honey-Comb Guard stretch textile and TPU, making them vegan-friendly and resoleable. Weighing 2 lbs. 12.45 oz. per pair, they provide robust protection without excessive bulk.

Our take

If you're tackling serious mountain terrain, the La Sportiva Aequilibrium ST GTX boots look to be a fantastic option. The ePE GORE-TEX waterproofing is a huge plus for keeping feet dry, and the Vibram Mont outsole inspires confidence on varied surfaces. I really appreciate the hybrid crampon compatibility for mixed climbing. At under 3 pounds for the pair, they're reasonably lightweight for a mountaineering boot, which is crucial on long ascents. The vegan construction is a thoughtful touch, and the ability to resole them adds to their long-term value, despite the $303.20 price point.
