Who should buy the Scarpa Phantom Tech
The Scarpa Phantom Tech is a high-cut unisex alpine climbing footgear that is light and ground-sensitive. Consider getting this pair, if you want:
-
a three-season technical gaitered boot for mountaineering and climbing under cold winter conditions
-
breathable yet waterproof boots providing good insulation and comfort on a trail
Reliable grip in Scarpa Phantom Tech
Vibram Zero Gravity is Phantom Tech’s source of traction. It is a combination of two Vibram compounds—Morflex and Mont—allowing the boot to perform in extremely cold conditions without sacrificing mobility and comfort. Its prominent lugs are great for treacherous ascents and challenging descents.
Extra support and stability
The Scarpa Phantom Tech has a stiff midsole with a fairly thick heel that offers impact cushioning. It is made of polyurethane—a material that helps this component stay resilient under considerable stress and weight in low temperatures.
Providing mountain climbers with extra support is the carbon fiber plus EVA insole.
Enhanced warmth and waterproofing
Housing the mountaineer’s foot is the Phantom Tech’s Cordura and aluminum main shell. It is engineered with Primaloft which provides insulation. Its tongue is gusseted, leaving no gaps in which debris may enter. The boot has proper waterproofing thanks to the Outdry technology. It is imbued within the footwear’s gaiter.
Scarpa's multi-tech upper
The boot also incorporates the Sock Fit DV, a proprietary Scarpa construction with agility and comfort as its benefits. It includes a tongue made of a one-piece S-Tech Schoeller Fabric that’s breathable yet waterproof and a Flex-Point (located above the ankle) made of technical fabric.
The top closure includes elastic tape, a protective flap that lessens the pressure coming from the sliding tab, and a clip button.
