Full rubber rand protects uppers and feet from abrasion and bumps--also enhances edging ability.

Durable Vibram® Ascent outsoles feature self-cleaning lugs and Asobrake design for superior grip when descending."

"UPDATE to original post.

I have now used the Asolo Titan GV for roughly 50 full days of mountaineering, and the boots have performed and held up quite well despite some abusive travel and notwithstanding others' experience with failures. I screwed and cemented a supergaiter on the boots, and they have become my early season mountaineering boots."

"I bought the Titan from REI because the La Sportiva Trango S did not fit. I've had past problems with Asolo products, but took the chance. I've used the boot for 15 or so days of rugged mountaineering, including the Redbout High Route/Ruta Lake High Route last year in a low snow year."

"The most comfortable mountaineering boot I have ever owned. But, they fell apart after only 4-5 weekends of typical use. I went back to REI (where I had purchased them) and they gave me another pair. That pair also fell apart after 4-5 weekends.

So, I called Asolo and they told me that they had discovered that boots were failing in the field and had re-designed it slightly."

"The boots fell apart after only nine days use. Asolo called it pre-mature wear out. When I took them back to the retailer another person had the boots for two days only and they started to fall apart. Don't waste your money on this boot or any other Asolo product."
