I bought my pair three years ago. The Classic GTX is made in Asia now they are still an awesome boot! Even though Vasque switched production of these to Asia, rather than Italy, it is based upon the same classic last (foot mold/shape) that has gotten awesome reviews for decades.

I was skeptical that a boot could be blister-free and fit so well but after getting fitted and sized properly, I found these boots to be THE one. They took zero break-in time. I have done extremely steep climbs and descents in these boots and haven't gotten a blister. They are very, very comfortable and sturdy. These are the best boots I have ever had. Mine were made in Asia. Perhaps they do not have the same workmanship as when the boot was handmade in Italy, but I must say, even these Asian-made ones are AWESOME! They totally beat other European-made boots of today. I love my Sundowners.
