バーテックス アルパイン GTX シューズ メンズ

Super light, snug fitting shoe for a variety of terrains. From Eastern Sierra and Rocky Mountain use, to use in the BC Mountains and Canadian Rockies in Banff, they break in super easily and give the protection needed in sticky situations with gravel and climbing over rocks and going through snow and ice. Favorite shoes the brand makes at the moment!

The shoes are very comfortable, but loud. Between the noisy bottoms and the shoe itself, they make a lot of noise walking. I use them for travelling to destinations that put me in wet, dry, and off the beaten path, and they work well for this. But everyone hears me coming. Seems like the bottoms need to be softer? They do run a little narrow.

It's a great shoe, light, snug fit (sock fit) and ideal for treking. The downside, which is a personal preference for me, is having to use two hands to pull on the shoe. Where as before, I've used one or no hands.

Passform ist super Die Vibramsohle ist katastrophal!! Definitiv kein Winterschuh da er 0 Grip hat auf schneebedeckter Oberfläche

Love this product, use it for long walks and travelling. Confortable and resistant, Highly recommend

作为一名已经拥有30多样始祖鸟的用户,对这双鞋真的很失望,今天出门第一次穿,就想磨合一下新鞋,走了3km,脚后跟就磨红了,起了一点水泡,赶紧打车回来. 之前买过 aerios 中邦gtx版,和vertex越野跑都很好, 这次真的太失望了. 研究了一下,主要是鞋内右后跟部位的凸出部分磨脚后跟

One of the most comfortable hiking / climbing / scrambling approach shoes I've ever worn. Waterproof. Dust and gravel proof with the sock like gaiter. Sticky rubber. It is a snug fit, however. If you've never worn snug / tight rock climbing shoes or you're not used to that snug fit, then these aren't the shoes for you. These shoes are supposed to be a bit tighter for maximum feel underfoot when scrambling, and they do that great.

Chaussures de qualité, de belle apparence et confortable. Elles ont le défaut d'une de ses qualités: comme elles sont très ajustées, il est difficile d'insérer le pied dans la chaussure.

Love the design, sock like fit and how light these are! A unique shoe for sure. Although they have some conns; After about 10km they started cutting in right below my ankle making it painful to walk, I resolved that with rising my heel by inserting a thicker insole. Another one is the stickiness, someone mentioned they are sticky but for me I thought these are probably the most slippery shoes I've had on in a while. Perhaps the rubber needs some breaking in.

These are my favorite arc’teryx shoes so far a though i wish the tongue wasn’t so tight but maybe it will loosen up with wear. I’m on my second pair of the off-white ones and fresh outta the box walked 16000 steps each day for 4 days around Washington DC. We had lots of rain and covered a lot of ground but my feet stayed dry and supported the whole trip! The tread makes noise indoors but it’s worth it for the Vibram grip because i never slipped on wet marble steps at any monument or museum. The shoes continue to look great and am sure i will enjoy them for a long time!

I've been trying to break these shoes in for several weeks, to no avail. The two shoes are shaped differently, and the left shoe is so misshapen it is painful to wear. Look good on here, but absolutely would never buy again.

Shoes are nice and fairly comfortable but the grip is the worst of four shoes I’ve tried on curling ice. Curling ice is pebbly and I’ve tried two other Arc’teryx shoes and a Reebok shoe that all stick to the ice well but these grips are as slippery as skates. They are unuseable on that ice. In the photo the worn out Reebok grip is much stickier on ice then the new vertex grips.

at first, these show felt a bit strange, but once you realize just how stick the sole is… they are a game changer for scrambling up the mountains near home!

This is my second pair of Arcteryx footwear, my first pair were the Aerios 2 FL. This pairs upper split where a crease developed just behind the toe. A replacement could not be supplied so I was refunded and I purchased this model. Unfortunately after just a couple of months infrequent use, the rear pull tab (which is essential to pull this design on, due to the internal sockets style design) just pulled away from the upper breaking it's stitching. I've always been a bit fan of the brand, owning numerous items of clothing and back packs but I think I need to search for an alternative footwear brand.

Have been wearing Arc'teryx gtx trainers for the last 2-3 years. They are exceptionally well made and durable, I wear them just every day and over rugged terrain when out with dogs. They are the best I have come across. I have recently purchased my 2nd pair. This time the Vertex Alpine GTX M and they are superb. Same excellent build quality and ruggedness but this time with the added "sock effect" around your ankles(not sure the exact name but a great addition) hopefully these will last as long as my last pair.highly recommend these trainers or any GTX trail teainer from Arc'teryx.

I wanted to love these shoes…I took them to the Italian Dolomites. For 3 days they were stellar. Grippy on rock, comfortable for long long days hiking/scrambling/running & with some wet snowy conditions…Then they started to tug at my right heel in a way no other shoe has done before. I could no longer wear them- the pain was so limiting. I am hoping to wear them again after the swelling and pain in my heel has gone down, but I am not sure if they will be in the rotation hereafter. This is not due to blisters or blistering pain, but pain at the insertion of my Achilles into my right heel. There is a chance this is due to overuse, however I am accustomed to high mileage and have never experienced this kind of lock into my heel swelling and pain before (used la Sportiva tx guide, Solomon, hoka, altra prior) . I feel the sock like fit is a potential strength but in my case a detriment. I will try them again once my pain leaves

I don't write many product reviews but after a lengthy wear-in period this shoe is an exceptional hiking / scrambling shoe. I was married to my La Sportiva TX3's until they were discontinued and I was forced to look into other options. Despite the cost I decided to try these. At first they were disappointing - very tight and somewhat uncomfortable under my ankles. Admittedly my feet are a bit strange so I gave it more time to wear in and it worked! I just completed a 5 day, 147 km trip with almost 7,000 meters of height gain hiking and scrambling peaks and rough scree on and off trail in the Alberta Rockies. I've also done many day trips in them while breaking them in and the grip on slab is amazing and very confidence inspiring. A major weakness of many alpine scrambling shoes is the outer material breaking and wearing on the copious amounts of sharp scree that we subject them to. These shoes still look brand new somehow. I'm not 100% sure but I wonder if the Gore-Tex layer makes them stronger? Personally I don't need the Gore as I wade through streams all the time and obviously the Gore-Tex just helps keep the water in rather than out in these cases but I'm going to buy another pair of these for the additional layer. In conclusion - a MAJOR win for Arc'teryx. THANK YOU for making this shoe!

I got those shoes about a month ago and I'm very satisfied so far. I used them mainly for hiking and as long approach shoes. I have been using them pretty extensively in different conditions and I have to say that they have been performing very well. They feel very comfortable and offer a lot of grip and the gore-tex liner product offers decent protection. The shoes feel narrow, so might not be too suitable for wider foot. They felt very stiff at first and It took me about a week to fully break them in. The knit collar does keep debris out and offer comfortability around the ankles. If you are looking for a pair of technical shoes built for hard scrambles, hiking and long approach, I'd highly recommend those.

best approach shoes i have worn. seems like all the negative reviews on the vertex apline are from people who bought these for every purpose other than what the shoe was intended. these are not hiking shoes nor are they for casual wear, however if you want to walk around in them and flex the bird then more power to you. these are not running shoes, i couldn't even imagine running in these stiff soles. but if you run and they work for you, that's great. if you have a long approach and require hiking, i'd suggest a softer approach shoe built for all-around use. arcteryx gear is technical and specific to certain jobs, which can be overwhelming. big benefits include the lace pocket which keeps the laced tucked so they don't get stepped on or tangled in scrub. gore-tex keeps me dry when i'm trudging through snow. the sock liner keeps all the pea gravel and dirt out of the shoes and comfortably wraps around the ankle for support. vibram sole sticks to rock and keeps me stable. durable material doesn't fall apart when scraping through talus. super comfortable when navigating a gigantic scree field and gigantic talus all morning and back down after climbing. on flat trails, this shoe will feel strange on your feet. as soon as you leave the trail and need to scramble to your destination, it excels.

Great shoe for hiking and scrambling. I really like that they have a stiff sole, it makes it nice for rougher terrain compared to a trail running shoe. I have a narrow foot and they fit nicely. I’ve submerged them in water on creek crossings and the waterproofing works well, my feet stayed dry.

I am a huge fan of your brand - I own 4 pairs at this point. This shoe is fine but my favorite is still the Aerios and there NONE in my size (9.5). Is that something that may change in the future?

Perfect blend of mountain running shoe and hiking boot. Best of both worlds with none of the downside.
