I love my La Sportiva TX2's. They're light, have decent support, and good sticky rubber. They lash together with integrated bungees for clippling to a pack/harness. |

My personal favorite is the Scarpa Mescalito, you may want to give it a try, if like me you have feet on the wider side, if you have narrower feet go with La Sportiva TX4. |

The new tennies do indeed suck big time. Go lasportiva and you will be satisfied |

Sportiva TX4 or the Garmont Dragontail MNT if you want something with a stiffer sole. |

3rd pair of Scarpa Crux and they are excellent. I'll be buying a 4th. I've had LaSp TX3,4 and Five Ten Guides and the other more burly ones and the Cruxes win, big. |
