The Scarpa Manta has been an icon for over three decades, representing the benchmark in 4-season mountain boots. This 7th iteration, the Manta Tech, is built on the proven FT last for a unique fit. It features a stable and durable outsole package with a Vibram Mulaz S sole unit for reliable underfoot assurance. Key updates include cleaner upper lines with reduced stitching and materials for improved cosmetics and a perfect flexation/support balance in the cuff. A larger heel pull tab enhances ease of use, especially with gloves, and a partial TPU rand reduces weight. The integration of GORE-TEX Insulated Comfort provides higher insulation, enabling the boot to perform in colder conditions and at higher altitudes. The boot offers a highly supportive ankle construction for rough terrain, a speed lacing system for quick fitting, and a rubber Pentax Precision XT outsole with an aggressive tread pattern for maximum grip. It is waterproof and breathable with a Gore-Tex Lining, features Activ Fit Technology for enhanced comfort, an Autofit collar, Flex Point Zone, and a deep full rubber rand for protection. The Manta Tech is C2 crampon compatible with Grivel G12 or G14 New-Matic bindings and utilizes the FT last for improved sensitivity.
