The leather and Lorica uppers feature a 3D Flex Ankle for mobile support on rocky approaches and technical pitches, and the Vibram sole and rand give you rock-shoe grip on all types of terrain. The rear TPU crampon reinforcement supports the boot when you strap on your spikes for a glacier crossing."

Men's Trango Alp GTX
Reviewed by Jas, Mar 16, 2009

"Over the past 16 years or so I’ve bought various boots that would fall into the UK category of ‘4 season’ (in the UK this refers to a boot that is suitable for extended periods of use with crampons, as opposed to how well insulated it is). Mostly, they have been disappointingly uncomfortable or not robust and stiff enough."
