La Sportiva TX5 GTX
£269
La Sportiva TX5 GTX
An approach boot built for scrambling, via ferrata, and technical hiking, now with a fully waterproof Gore-Tex membrane for wet and cold conditions where climbing-grade grip and dry feet both matter.
About the boot:
The TX5 GTX sits between a hiking boot and a climbing shoe, giving a sensitive, precise feel on rock without sacrificing ankle support on approaches. It uses La Sportiva's climbing-inspired rubber compound for confident grip on scrambles and technical terrain, with a structured build that supports light crampon use for occasional snow or ice sections. The Gore-Tex lining adds full waterproof protection and breathability, making it reliable in rain, snowmelt, or damp alpine conditions without compromising the boot's technical performance. The fit is narrower and more performance-oriented than a standard hiking boot, prioritising edging and control over plush cushioning.
Why it's worth it:
This is a specialist boot for people who mix hiking with scrambling, alpine approaches, or via ferrata routes, and the GTX version extends that capability into wetter, colder conditions without adding unnecessary bulk. It's a favourite among mountaineers and climbers who need one boot that performs on both trail and rock, rain or shine.
