SCARPA Alien 5.0 Boot
SCARPA's fifth iteration of its full-carbon Alien marks a paradigm shift in carbon boot colorways: silver! In addition to the sleek new Olympic-inspired color, the boot boasts thoughtful updates that come from a never-ending drive to reach the pinnacle of performance. An advanced carbon-wrapped 3D honeycomb structure adds insulation and rigidity without unnecessary weight. A new and improved U.F.O LB outsole, using Vibram Litebase, ensures a confident grip and minimal weight. The updated Race SL liner by Intuition provides comfort for the lower, while the pre-attached shin pad does the same for the cuff. More durable gaiter fabric rounds out the updates for this podium contender. The BOA fit system is retained for quick, on-the-fly adjustments. Made with pride in Asolo, Italy.
