The North Face Summit Verto SA GORE-TEX Hiking Boot TNF Black/TNF Red, Mens 11.0/Womens

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've never had a boot feel so dialed-in for fast alpine travel.

The BOA fit system lets me tweak the fit mid-pitch with gloves on, and the low-profile design improves edging and rock contact.

It's lightweight, crampon-compatible, and bomber in wet, cold conditions."When every ounce counts and the route ahead demands precision, we lace up the Summit Verto SA GORE-TEX boot and charge upward.

Developed in collaboration with The North Face alpine climbing team, this ultralight boot delivers a responsive fit and reliable protection for fast-and-light alpine objectives across three seasons.

The Dyneema-reinforced upper resists abrasion from rock and ice, while the internal GORE-TEX membrane keeps water and snow out during exposed traverses and summit pushes.

A semi-rigid plate with 30% recycled carbon fiber offers the torsional control needed for technical terrain, and the BOA Fit System makes micro-adjustments possible mid-mission, even in gloves.

With a Vibram Mont outsole and a crampon-ready heel clip, we trust this boot when high stakes meet higher elevation.
