Engineered with high-performing three-layer waterproof GORE-TEX, a midfoot stability shank and our lightweight SKYCORE rock guard, the new Verto Alpine Mid Boots are perfect for rugged adventures and alpine trekking. Thanks to a durable leather upper with moulded ankle support, protective toe cap and scratch-rubber heel, youll benefit from increased support and protection on the approach. The climbing zone at the toe is ideal for edging, while the braking zone at the heel prevents the foot from slipping during steep ascents.
