These bright crampon compatible boots are ideal for tackling icy trails when you're trekking and for wearing on climbing adventures above the snow line, but are also flexible enough for wearing in lower alpine valleys. We love the Tenga's high, supportive ankles and bouncy Vibram soles, both ideal for striding out confidently over uneven terrain.
