END OF SEASON SALE, ALL 2024 GEAR ON SALE NOW
Flex: 125 // 1410 g @ 26.5 // 101 mm last @ 26.5
Scarpa's most sought after alpine touring boot, fits like a glove skis like a boss. With a more forgiving 101 mm last coupled with an intuition liner you'll have a fit that can provide solid downhill performance without being too much when it's time to ascend or traverse. While the Maestrale RS is wider in the forefoot and has a wide toe box, the instep height is low. It feels especially low before the boots are molded, if you feel like you're being squished just a lilttle too much, it'll get a lot better with the proper amount of heat. A full rubber sole makes hiking in any condition much easier while it's frictionless walk mode doesn't feel limiting at all -- so much mobility. As long as you don't have a crazy high instep, the Maestrale RS's are a good option if you're looking for a powerful AT boot.
Sizing: Scarpa does their sizing a bit differently 26.5 and 27 are the same. While with other brands 26 and 26.5 are the same, get it? Cool, good.
