About the Scarpa Vento GTX Boot Men's

The Scarpa Vento GTX is a men's waterproof hiking boot built for day hikes and lightweight overnight trips. It pairs a suede and fabric upper with a PU toe rand, a PU midsole for arch support, and a Vibram Energy II / XS Trek outsole. Each boot weighs about 585 g in size 42, so it is a mid-weight option rather than an ultralight one. It sits in the middle of the pack on features: more support and protection than a trail runner, less bulk than a stiff backpacking boot.
