Asolo | translate:/Global/SiteRating: 5

The Asolo Sherpa GV is an exceptionally well-priced boot, because not only does it cost a full £40 less than the best boot we tested, but it also has a much better set of features than other boots in its price range. So you get a one-piece leather upper for maximum durability and water resistance. But just to make sure ...

Asolo Imperial

£150.00

These are a well-styled boot, perfect for walking in most terrain. The stiff sole unit and thick leather build give them great support and foot protection. The high ankle also helps with support on loose ground, while also providing just enough cushioning without becoming too bulky or warm. Comfort is also helped by laces which reach far down the boot, ...

Asolo Atlantis GTX

£130.00

The Atlantis is a very sturdy boot, with Asolo’s new Active Heel Support which cradles the heel and offers really good shock absorption. The toe box is a little on the narrow side, but an excellent lacing system should allow for a comfortable fit for all but the widest feet. The well-placed locking eyelet also helps by keeping feet firmly ...

Asolo Lhotse GV B3 2009

£200.00

Flick through any climbing book or mag from the Eighties and more than likely the boots worn in winter or Alpine pictures will be plastic, sporting the ubiquitous Asolo logo. Asolo were the ‘plastic-meisters’, setting the standard for B3 class boots: stiff, with flat soles for mountaineering, snow and ice-climbing. Now, as then, making a pair is a thankless task.The ...

Asolo Power Matic 200 GTX

£140.00

Incredibly comfortable from the box and careful lacing ensured a good stable fit, aided by an effective locking eyelet between the foot and ankle cuff. They are very well padded and the ankle is a good height – supportive but not clumsy or restrictive. One complaint, they are quite heavy compared to most. Good on forest tracks or over the ...

Asolo Rhythm XCR

£85.00

Reassuringly snug around the whole foot. Quite stiff so feel very supportive, even on rough terrain, and the lacing works well, ensuring they remain comfortable and stable. Reinforced toe and heel does a great job of guarding feet from scrapes and bumps, and the excellent shock absorption at the heel keeps feet feeling fresh all day. Heavier than most, but ...

Asolo Flame GTX

£120.00

Well padded at the ankle cuff and tongue, without being over the top, and the speed lacing system is effective and easy to use, producing a stable fit every time. On the heavy side, but easy to move in, and nimble, too. The stiff midsole excels on rougher ground, yet the boots are just as pleasant to wear around local ...

Asolo Powermatic 500 GTX

£155.00

The cuff of the Asolo Powermatic 500 GTX may rub slightly on your lower shin at first, but this soon softens, making them very comfortable indeed. They are quite narrow at the toe, but lace up easily, so eliminating any toe banging. They out-perform the competition with a crampon on, but lose out by a whisker for general high-level walking. ...
