  1. It’s a good thing to keep in mind thank you for mentioning that. I sure don't want that as I will be hiking for 13 day's between 5 to 8 hours a day so sore feet is not good.
  2. Look like a good boot I will have to see if they have it here at my local shop to try them on.
  3. The Scarpa Charmoz GTX and La Sportiva Trango Extreme Evo Light GORE-TEX are the style of boot that I spotted first but then I saw on the gear list from the KE adventure company that a good light boot but no too heavy is recommended. So I started looking for something lighter but I was still coming back to La Sportiva Trango Extreme Evo Light GORE-TEX model and similar model In other brand so Kind of confused. The only thing I'm afraid is if I get something like the la sportiva and scarpa boot it will be overkill for the kind of walking we will be doing all the way up to the Everest base camp. I tried looking to see if any body else did the trip before and had posted a review of the trip but did not find one. But thanks a lot for your opinion on the other boots it just confirmed what I was thinking my self about those models.
  4. From what the Adventure company is saying in the document I got from them it's via Goyko Lakes and the Cho La . And there's the La Sportiva Trango Extreme Evo Light GORE-TEX that I like too which is rated more like a mountaineering boot. The only thing is I wonder if I need such a boot.
  5. Wow thank you all for your great comments I really appreciated. I found a local shop in my town that specialized in mountaineering and backpacking gear I gave them a call and got some good tips. I will soon drop by their shop to have a look at their boot selection. I found a few on the net that look interesting. Tell me what you think, here's the list: Vasque Zephyr Tech Vasque Zephyr II Zamberlan Vioz GT GORE-TEX La Sportiva Trango Trek 2 GORE-TEX
  6. Thank you for your answer it's appreciated
  7. I will be attending the Classic Everest Base camp trek which is a 13 day trek up to the Everest base camp. It will be my first time doing a trek like that and need advice on purchasing my first mountaineering boot.
