DanielHarro Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Dane- What about the new Lasportiva Batura Evo? http://www.sportiva.com/products/prod/11A you better order them up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 Dude! BTDT...for 2 seasons. A new paint job and a new zipper don't make it a new boot Other than that same boot, love 'em or hate 'um. Me? Not one of my favorites and for the record I really liked the older "tweety bird" look. My boots on the crux chimney on Pineapple Express/Blue Moon, winter 08/09.

fern Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 A little offtopic ... but any opinions on the LS Trango Prime ?? It looks to be the only techy,light,insulated boot LS offers in a sz37 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 The entire Trango series are good boots if they fit your feet. Prime was a little wide for me. Prime was hashed out a bit several times when they first came out. Prime is a good lwt all around mtn boot. For that I use the Trango Evo..the red boot. It is cheaper and easier on the feet. Need more? I use the Trango Extreme Evo for that.
