Terra GORE-TEX Walking Boots
Scarpa · £210
Worth being NRY provisional
£210 and the boot Scarpa are known for: a full-grain leather upper that is smooth and supple from the first day, which is unusual because full-grain normally means a fortnight of blisters first. It is a long-standing favourite rather than a new model, and in boots that is a recommendation rather than a criticism.
- For
- Someone who wants full-grain leather without the breaking-in period it usually implies.
- Not for
- Anyone needing a stiff sole for scrambling or crampons.
What we checked
- A full-grain leather upper that is smooth and supple. Ellis Brigham
Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
