I love the new Trango Cubes! They are more waterproof and durable than their predecessor. They are still light and climb brilliantly, but now they are more comfortable on the trail too. This boot has always climbed rock well, but now it holds up in snow on the approaches and descents too. During this hot summer in the Canadian Rockies and Columbia mountains, I crossed many creeks with this boot and it kept my feet dry! 

After a long day and summer season of work in the Canadian Rockies, on the O'Hara bus..

I also have to mention that I have a jacket (LaSportiva Siren Hooded)  that kinda matches, embarrassing that I actually love this ; )

Red inside the good also looks GREAT!

Red inside the hood also looks GREAT!
