Scarpa Phantom Lite Mountaineering Boot

I've given my pair about four waterfall days, a couple of sport mixed days, and four days heavy-duty backpacking and camping where the temperatures often dropped below minus twenty degrees Celsius and these boots seem to be doing great. They hold crampons well (Grivel Rambo 4 and BD Sabretooth), walk fine (no blisters, even from the git-go), and are surprisingly warm for such a sensitive and close-fitting pair of boots. Very easy to get into and out of, though the narrow gauge laces are already showing signs of wear from reefing through the cordlock tensioner - it's nice to be able to just jump into them in the vestibule in the morning, or off the tailgate of the truck, pull the laces, zip the zip, and get on to other things. Pretty waterproof right now - hope that lasts.

A good investment, I think.

Pretty cool, but I returned them because they're not exactly a double boot in the sense that the liner is not removable. So I ordered a pair of Scarpa Phantom 6000 instead, and I love them. But the sizing is pretty small. I'm generally a size 10, and I had to get size 45 for these boots.
