Great Boot for the Sale Price By Johnnycakes from Bozeman, MT on 09/20/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Quality Construction, Warm Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Picked these up for under [$] with free shipping during a sale. Paired them with used Havocs, used Freerides and used skins, and got into the backcountry for $500. Boot has been great, both for skiing and hiking, all-day comfort, etc. Liners have been durable and warm. I recommend these as 5 stars for the price I paid, great value!! At $300 I would give them 4 stars.
Warning, *not* the Spirit 3! By Jonathan S. from Amherst, Mass. on 08/06/2008 Pros: Adjustability, Comfortable, Good Traction, Quality Construction Cons: Difficult Lacing System Describe Yourself: Competitive Athlete Sizing: Feels half size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Warning, this is *not* the Scarpa Spirit 3!
The Spirit 3 is one Scarpa's all-around alpine touring and ski mountaineering boots.
Unfortunately, this is an economy/price-point version that lacks the Dynafit binding interface and the warm-yet-light thermomoldable liner.
So it weighs more than the Spirit 3, and condemns you to using much heavier bindings too.
The price savings would be attractive but given that stp carries Dynafit-compatible boots at a comparable discount, this boot is kind of a dead-end purchase.
Good deal on a solid AT boot! By Patroller from Winthrop, WA on 03/14/2008 Pros: Adjustability, Comfortable, Good Traction, Quality Construction, Warm Cons: Difficult Lacing System, Difficult to get out off Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels full size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: For the record, Scarpa boots run big. I wear a street 10 or so and in both this boot and my Scarpa T2 telemark boot, I fit an 8/9 shell with a size 9 liner- so my advice, be clear when you order, go a size smaller! They make a boot shell fit 2 foot sizes and get the specific fit from the liner thickness.
That said, these boots felt great from the get go. Comfy skiing, standing and walking about- what more can you want?
One caveat: They are a royal pain to get out of! The liner folds along the heel, meaning the it gets partially pulled out at each extrication. This is a small price to pay for a good deal on a solid boot!
