Perks
The Fast Lacing System makes it easy to put your Spantiks on while wearing gloves and the lightness of the boots overall make long days more bearable. The boots are fully crampon-compatible.
Sacrifices
Up-close of the Spantik lacing system - end of lace wraps securely around teardrop-shaped tab
The laces on the Fast Lacing System are prone to break. Order additional sets and carry them with you when you are wearing the boots. They are not as flexible as other double boots, either.
Bottom Line
The LaSportiva Spantik Boot is not only one of the lightest double plastic mountaineering boots on the market, but it is comfortable to wear with easy-on and easy-off lacing. They will last you for years and if you are prone to cold feet, they are an especially sound choice.
