Excellent video and review. Doing National 3 Peaks in June, so sorting kit and looked at these boots comparing them to the Mammut Ducan High GTX and Berghaus Storm. I also live on the edge of the Dales and Peaks so looking to start some regular hikes etc. I think this video has convinced me to go with the Rush. Thanks again.
Ey up mate, cracking video pal, and a brilliant looking boot. I’ve got the Bestard Advanced K Pro GTX Trekking boot. Like you the best boot I’ve had. So comfortable. I’ve never been on a walk yet where I’ve had to re-tighten my boots. Have a good weekend mate, All the best
I went for these Rush TRX boots. I absolutely love them! So comfy out of the box, incredible grip and dry too! Planning to do the 3 peaks in them later this year 😊
Thanks for watching and commenting mate 👊🏼 and I made up the TRX Rush are as good for you as they are for me. I’d recommend them to anybody. Good luck with the Three Peaks 👊🏼 that the national or Yorkshire?? Thanks again 👍 Mossy
I love my Scarpa boots 🥾 I’ve not had any Montane equipment but my mate Josh swears by his montane jacket 👌🏼 I’ll have to give them a go. Thanks for watching and commenting
Just bought a pair of these, waiting for them to come. Ive been an Asolo boot boy for years. But as you know. Having boots is like ordering a chinese meal. You're loyal to what you order, but secretly, you think is there better out there what you're missing out on. Ive had 2 pair of salomons. 1 pair initially fitted but i had a strange foot growth spurt, And the current pair i had was the Pro Trek 7. And 1/4 of the way round the latest hike the sole came away from the boot on the heel. So thats me done with Salomon. So im gonny try these Scarpa Trx's. Glad of your review. Its giving me peace of mind. Just gotta wait to see if they fit.
That’s some collection of boots 🥾 👊🏼. I’m still loving my TRX’s 👌🏼 been out in them to day and absolutely smashed it on the fells. Great grip and comfort all day. Nice n dry feet at the end of a 7hour 18k hike up 4peaks 👊🏼. I really do love these boots I know they might not suit all but they are great for me. Thanks for watching and commenting 👊🏼 let me know how you get on with them
Thanks. I like the boots I am size 10 uk , 44 EU , Those are 9 1/2 UK I tried them and they are good fit. I checked other scarpa boots and for the summer those I think will be ok. I want the boots but what bothers me is the weight , when you go above 500 grams ... and those they say size 42 550 idk size 44 will be 600 ish maybe. They are great they will give me peace of mind in the mountain but maybe for summer will be too much ... I am still deciding.
I find them light enough for one or two day hikes. If I’m going for multi day hikes like 5days I wear trail running shoes. I love my scarpa boots tho light comfortable and waterproof 🫡 brilliant bit of kit
I’ve worn them in all conditions and am very impressed with the soles of these boots. I’d buy them again. Hope that helps thanks you for watching and commenting
The PRESA soles on my Scarpa shoes began to wear out even after I brushed them before use. I know that there are several types of PRESA with a balance of tenacity and durability against wet rocks, but is the outsole durable?
Hi mate, just working my way through your videos on these boots and very impressed with the content. Quick one, you mentioned a few times about waterproof socks, I’ve been meaning to get some, can you recommend any in particular? Thanks again
I found my scarpa rush uncomfortable for flat (hiking walking) getting blisters on every walk, Soon as i went Snowdonia i noticed where my money had been spent they performed amazing even on wet slab not once did i slip and no blisters amazing boot for the right conditions. I dont recommend these for normal wood walking
Yeah this is 100% true. I read on the website they are designed for mountain walking not flat hiking that’s why I didn’t wear them on the Cumbria Way. They perform brilliantly in the fells tho where I want them to. Great grip on wet and uneven ground. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤙 means a lot Mossy
Great informative video. You mentioned you have issues with your feet as I do too. I have metatarsalgia (pain in the balls of the feet) which usually kicks in around 5k on a hike. I was wondering if you have the same problem and if these boots are supportive. TIA
I have flat feet that causes me issues with Achilles tendinitis and foot pain plantar fasciitis. Much like yourself I tend to feel pain during long hikes. I have inner souls from the nhs but I’ve not tried them in the boots yet. I do find them very supportive and comfortable I’ve really enjoyed wearing them this year. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best for the new year
@@Walkingwildcampinguk my first rush trk has waterproofing issues, they change it to new ones. However, when I used the new boots into a -4c temperature, my feet started to feel cold despite that it is only cold weather but NOT WET (no rain/no snow) weather. my sweat from my boots did not evaporate it stays inside and became cold. I have tried several socks including wool, still the same issue.
@emernelson sorry to hear that pal. I was out in mine last Thursday climbing up Scarfell pike in -7 weather deep snow and had no issues. I wear waterproof socks in winter don’t know if that helps. Didn’t get cold feet ones tho. Hopefully you can find a solution
@@Walkingwildcampinguk generally very good shoes, i hope they last long, btw are you happy with the insoles? i have plantar fasciitis and change them to a little bit ticker insoles.
@emernelson I have NHS insoles in mine atm due to have flat feet and constantly getting Plantar Fasciitis 👀. I had no problem with the original insole but the NHS ones make a difference that’s for sure 👌🏼. Thanks for watching and commenting 👊🏼
Just got a pair myself yesterday for this year, got a pair of Merrel MOABs for last year and I thought they were a pile of crap despite the reviews. You are not ex Royal Navy by any chance the way you were swinging those heels up 😉.
lol I’m not ex military even with the heel pop lol 😂. Yeah heard some bad things about recent Merrel products. The newer gears not as good as the older stuff I’ve been told. Hope you enjoy the Scarpa boots 🥾 I love mine
Hiya mate, thanks for the review on these. I’m only 2 mins in at the moment. I’m looking for a new boot. Do the same wild camping and hiking in the lakes mostly. My last 3 boots have been the Salomon quest 3D then 4D. I’m getting bored of the build quality, they go to easy. So I’m looking at Scarpa and La Sportiva. There is 3 of these Rush boots the Lite, the Trek you have and the Trek Pro a nubuck version. Some reviews have seen them rip at the seems I think on the lite fabric version and the sole wearing quick. Why didn’t you go for the pro version? And can you recommend these? Or if you were buying again would you look at like La Sportiva tx5 and txs? Cheers Mike
I’ve had zero issues with the Scarpa rush boot so far they are also very comfortable. Theses where a replacement for my scarpa maverick boots that had a small fault. Scarpa replaced them with the rush boots so I was able to get out hiking as I had a weekend away I was going on. Scarpa’s customer service was spot on tbf. I probably did 60+ wainwright’s in the maverick boots plus multiple other walks n wild camps in the Lakes n Peak District so they had a lot of mileage in 6 months. I’ll be buying scarpa again when the Rush boots wear out a little but I can’t see that being for a good while yet. Some very good sales on Scarpa boots also if you shop around 👍. Hope this helps Mossy
@@Walkingwildcampinguk Hi Mossy, thanks for the quick reply. I will have to do abit more research. The scarpa own Presa sole is getting a right slating not for how good it is as it seems to be very grippy but the durability is low with people complaining about the lugs wearing to the sole very quick. People saying scarpa should have used Vibram still. Thanks anyway. Il be watching all your videos they are very insightful. Cheers again Mike
I've just ordered a pair of these boots and I'm a bit concerned about a recent TH-cam video I've watched showing these boots leaking through the lace holes at the lower lower part of the boot. Have you had any problems yet?
I’ve had no issues with mine. I’ll be cleaning and re treating them this week ready for winter adventures 👍. Take good care of ya equipment it will take care of you 👍 atb Mossy
Absolutely not suitable for the mountains, on rocks and the debris found at high altitude. EXTREMELY SOFT MIDSOLE tends to deteriorate quickly in contact with rock, I even tore the midsole in places near the sole. The problem is that they have exalted comfort at the expense of robustness, and this makes them delicate.
Thank you for watching and commenting. Sorry to hear you’ve had an issue with your boots that must of been frustrating. I’ve not had a similar problem but I’m guessing that maybe you’re in harsher conditions than the mountain hikes I do. You should definitely send Scarpa some photos of the damage they have a very good customer care I can vouch for. They might replace them for you. Atb Mossy
최고!!! 😁

I have a pair of Scarpa climbing shoes, and I can't wait to try some Scarpa walking boots!
Scarpa are a great company and they make great products. The Rush are a fantastic boot 🥾 make walking long distances a lot easier 👍
Scarpa and Montane for me is the best brands out there
I love my Scarpa boots 🥾 I’ve not had any Montane equipment but my mate Josh swears by his montane jacket 👌🏼 I’ll have to give them a go. Thanks for watching and commenting
I think this is my next boots, after 4,5 years with Lowa Renegade.
Thanks for review.
I love them 😍 obviously if you can try them on that’s great but I just size up one. Let me know how you get on mate 👍

@@Walkingwildcampinguk 100% will buddy. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Cheers
Very good
GREAT VIDEO !!!!! JUST A LITTLE MORE FOOTAGE OF THE BOOT YOUR TALKING ABOUT
Thanks for watching and commenting. There’s a 1st impression video of the boot on the channel that shows them more.

How's the rubber? Can you compare the stickiness to something like a vibram megagrip?
I’ve worn them in all conditions and am very impressed with the soles of these boots. I’d buy them again. Hope that helps thanks you for watching and commenting
The PRESA soles on my Scarpa shoes began to wear out even after I brushed them before use. I know that there are several types of PRESA with a balance of tenacity and durability against wet rocks, but is the outsole durable?
I’ve had no issues up till now and have walked hundreds of miles in them in the Lake & Peak District 👍
Hi mate, just working my way through your videos on these boots and very impressed with the content. Quick one, you mentioned a few times about waterproof socks, I’ve been meaning to get some, can you recommend any in particular?
Thanks again
I wear a brand called Bridgedale. I hear good things about a brand called 360 also but I’ve not used them yet. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙌
Amazing, I’ll check them out! Thanks for the fast response
No problem hope it all works out for you 👍

Just a quick question bro. Are they a wide fit or narrow? I have Scarpa and they're often very narrow. Good review. Mark
I have narrow feet and really like these so I’m going to go say there pretty narrow fitting tbh. Best to try get fitted if possible. Great boot tho 🤙
@@Walkingwildcampinguk Thanks there mate. Yeah, Scarpa do make em narrow. I thought these might be the exception. Peace.

Are they suitable for winter hiking in the mountains?
I wear mine all year round. I use waterproof socks 🧦

As of yet 👍. They are great boots imo
And how your boots? You have some leak?
I've had them for 10 months and have wet toes after walking through grass. Also the black toe band is coming away from the boot. @@DajmonPL
