Just sharing this info here for anyone interested. Got some good discounts on solid boots that can be useful if you’re looking for some quality gear.
This person is out here trying to help everyone with a discount, and people just gotta criticize.
I’ll just say it: thanks for sharing! I may not need it now, but at these prices, I might reconsider.
It’s nice of you to share, but this might get the deal canceled for everyone, I think.

Yeah, this is probably how La Sportiva pulls their pro deal altogether. If too many people use it, they might just cancel all the orders.
Saw this once when I worked at a store. Someone leaked a pro deal code, and everyone who ordered got their orders canceled. The deal was put on hold after that.
@Lior
Exactly! Pro deals are meant to be strict. All these orders could end up canceled, and the person who posted it might lose access. People like this spoil it for everyone else. Thanks a lot!

I thought folks here might appreciate the heads-up, but I get it. Let’s just hope it doesn’t ruin anything for those actually looking for these boots.

Maybe I misjudged how people here would take it. Just trying to share something helpful.

Yeah, world news has its place but not here. We don’t need more off-topic comments – it’ll just mess up focused forums like this one.
Thanks for sharing! Just got a pair!
La Sportiva boots have got to be some of the ugliest I’ve seen. I’m no cowboy boot fan either, but these are just odd. Why not stick with regular leather boots?
Between TX4 and Ultra Raptor Mid… any opinions on which is better?
Thanks for the heads-up! I found a good price on Nucleos. Haven’t had a reliable boot for rain in a long time, excited to test these.
Edit: Didn’t use the deal but saw a big discount on the site after your post. Thanks for the pointer!
These prices look like they’re straight-up employee discounts.

Yep, this is a throwaway account. Think on that.

Respect, man.
La Sportiva makes solid boots, but I personally like Asolo. They feel sturdier to me and fit better.
Most of these boots are way too heavy and stiff for hiking. I have a pair and rarely use them for trails – they seem more like work boots.

I’m a beginner hiker, but I have the Trango GTX and it’s a good all-around choice.
Nepals seem odd as work boots…

They’re actually arborist/lineman boots.
