Na mine are the TRK GTX model, think the tower is a higher cut and a bit more built up than the GTX, will be a bit heavier but more of a true alpine boot and lightweight in its class still
Theres two models of the GTX, the TRK and the Leather. The leather has some leather panels but same construction, slightly heavier. The TRX is the lightest of the bunch. As much as it makes me sick to read it the TRK has a sticker on the box saying "vegan friendly" haha.

Mine are the TRK and I love the irony that I'm taking a vegan friendly boot hunting!
