La Sportiva Sherpa

rated 4.5 of 5 stars

The Sherpa has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best backpacking boots for 2024.

Bloody good shoe. Very comfortable and no need to wear the shoe in. Very waterproof, great soles and overall a very strong shoe. I've had them for over seven years and wear them very often and never had a problem with them. Good for city wear too.

The only problem is La Sportiva don't make them any more. Well, I've got a pair so I'm happy... I'm just wondering how much longer they will last, it seems as if nothing will wear them down. (though the sole will need changing soon.)

Use: heavy pack, city use, trail, snow
Break-in Period: Halfa day, if that.
Weight: 1.3 kgs.
Price Paid: $AUD 350

I really like these boots. Very waterproof with the Gore-tex bootie. I took them through the Amazon jungle and the Andes last summer.

They hav'nt failed me yet. The Vibram sole is awesome and has a lifetime warranty. The sole cleans it self when you trek. I've even used this boot for some tech.rockclimbing. Not too shaby. Very comfy & Very recomended!

It's a great boot for everything, even hot dates!!!
