Reviewed by Kelvin - 18th Oct, 2023 Excellent boots. A rare non-Goretex product These are heavy but bombproof. Used them for years as 4 season boots (even with crampons). Wide toe box. Changed insoles for superfeet. Test before wearing and keep re-proofed with specific wax.
Reviewed by Matt S - 16th Jul, 2023 Awful The worst boots I’ve ever owned. Two months in, the front of the sole peeled off. Then after countless sock and lacing combinations, they are still torture. Also zero wet rock grip. Avoid.
Reviewed by John M - 18th Apr, 2023 No Gortex/Event. etc., membranes - so excellent Hard to source quality boots without some so called waterproof, 'breathable' layer. Membranes get worn, let water in and keep it in, plus are hot in summer. These boots are easily reproofed. The best.
Reviewed by James - 29th Jan, 2023 Work horse I have been using the scarpa SL boot for around 10 years and I really can’t fault them, yes there expensive but after 10 years of medium and on occasions heavy use there is still plenty of life left!
Reviewed by Roy - 18th Nov, 2022 Well built but too heavy and caused heel blisters Incredibly heavy! A single boot is heavier than my pair of North Face leather boots, this weight penalty will take its toll during longer walks, and these ruined my heels on the way up a Corbett.
Reviewed by Matt S - 4th Jan, 2022 Not quite what I expected Very hard to find non membrane boots as I find Goretex doesn’t last long enough. These fitted the bill but they are huge, clumsy and giving me heel blisters after 50+ miles. Laces also far too long.
Reviewed by ECL - 8th Dec, 2021 Great boots. Had an... Great boots. Had an issue with arch support causing blisters, tendon and knee pain on long hikes. However this was immediately sorted with Sidas insoles. Now the most comfortable boots I’ve owned.
Reviewed by Stuart Simpson - 8th Feb, 2020 Inner lining Absolutely loved these boots but after one year the inside lining and sole started to disintegrate, the outside of the boot is still like brand new. For £250 I expected a lot more.
Reviewed by Rob Daley - 31st Dec, 2019 Inner failure after about a year and a half. I was extremely happy at 1st with these boots. However after a year the internal heel fabric started to wear away, and now I can no longer wear them as there is no fabric left and they give blisters
Reviewed by Goody - 14th Feb, 2019 Scarpa all day long I’ve been using these boots ( same pair ) for 5 years now , through all the seasons and all the weather the Scottish hills can bring . These fit really well and the support around the ankle is superb . The vibrant soles speak for themselves , excellent traction even on wet/dry rocks . The waterproof ability on these boots are second to nothing else , I have not had a wet foot ever , and that’s 40 munro’s I have ticked off , rain , snow , hail , sun these do everything I have ever asked them to do ,keep me sure footed and dry . Well done scarpa , well deserved 5*
Reviewed by Ricky - 8th Jan, 2019 Just what the feet ordered Just recently bought these boots, after doing some research. I've worn them around the house everyday to bed them in, feel so comfy. Pleased at my purchase. A big shout out to Mark (bald guy) at the York branch, he was so so helpful, an asset to the company.
Reviewed by Fisher2020 - 19th Sep, 2018 Scarpa SL Boots Bought my second pair of Scarpa SL Boots after many hundreds of extremely comfortable all year round walking miles in my first pair. Serves me well on either a short woodland stroll or rigged with Crampons in the Lake District.
