could you give exact lengths of the wave closure cables? i'd like my boots to fasten tighter across the foot so want to make sure a replacement will be a bit shorter

Hi Kathryn, I measured the various wave closure cables from end to end (including the attachment points). Lengths are as follows:
Thanks for the info about cable lengths. Do you think that a half centimeter of difference (I have Gea's in size 24 and the smallest cable is only one cm shorter) would be enough to tighten up fit? Or alternatively would it be an option to punch a hole on the buckle side and move buckle hardwear over a bit? thank you!

Hi Kathryn, unfortunately we don't have any good data on this specific modification. A half centimeter is the difference between the smallest 3 size ranges, so it sounds like it would probably make a difference in tightness. You might also consider adding boot shims under your footbeds / insoles to take up some volume as well, since it sounds like your boots may just have some extra space in them. Please feel free to reach out to help@skimo.co if you'd like to talk further about boot fit details!
Hello! My right instep strap broke on my Scarpa Skadi 271mm touring boots, could you point me in the direction of a replacement strap? They're old but I love em and hope to keep using them.
Hi Kate, the Maestrale 1.0 Instep strap would likely be your best bet. It should fit on the inside cuff pivot (replacing the grey cable guide) but the crux is whether or not the width will fit in the ladder buckle. If it doesn't fit, you could replace the buckle with the Gea RS 2.0 Instep Buckle (which is compatible), but installing this requires removing the cuff and using a rivet press to install the new one, something that you would need to find a shop to do.
If you order the instep strap, check to see if it works with the buckle before removing/installing anything on the boot. If it fits in the buckle and latches securely, then you're good to proceed. If not, you can always return the instep strap.
Hi Alex. I think the best option would be to have it riveted in with a press. You could also get a couple of T-nuts and screws from a hardware store. I hope this helps.

I need a right instep strap for a Maestael 2018 AT boot. On the parts list there are several different straps with all kinds of numbers attached. What do the numbers mean and how do i know which is the right one?
You will want the Maestrale RS 1.0 Instep Strap. The numbers refer to the boot size range each strap works with. Be sure to select the "Right" option. Hope this helps!

Hi Alesia, The numbers attached are in regard to the corresponding boot size(s). You'll want the Maestrale RS 2.0 Instep Strap that encompasses the size of your boot. Thanks!

Hi Della, we don't have this exact part, and the "Maestrale 2.0 Cuff Catch" from this page is too wide to fit in the buckle. I've got this same boot, though, and tried a few different catches that we do have around.
The "Hawx Ultra XTD Shell Catch Instep" from the Atomic Boot Parts page fits pretty well, though it doesn't have the keeper latch. I've used the original nut and screw here.

I have Scarpa Gea boots and am missing the top buckle. Can you advise on what the exact name of this buckle is and where to find a replacement? I attached the picture of the buckle from the other boot for reference
The Maestrale RS 2.0 Cuff buckle is the buckle you are looking for!

Looking for a replacement for the middle plastic ratchet strap on my Scarpa T2 Eco boots, size 275. The plastic on them wore down pretty early on and the buckle slips now where I need it to latch - on both booths. I found the kit on the Scarpa website, but it looks like they only sell to retailers. They call it “KIT - NARROW MIDSTRAP WIRE, PAIR (17MM) 27.0-29.0“. Can you help?
From this listing, you would want the AT Boots Catch Screw in the drop-down menu. To find the backing nut you will need to go to Ski-Walk Mechanism Parts and choose the Square Back Nut, Ski/Walk Lever. SCARPA will use the same hardware for multiple boots just to keep us on our toes. Hope this helps!

Do you have this eyelet for the wire to pass through on this original F1 boot?
Hi Frans. The cuff buckles of the RS and XT look similar but are a bit different. We don't have an XT on hand here to compare so can't say for sure.

Is there a mid zip buckle available that will accommodate my 20mm zip strap on my Scarpa T1s? Otherwise maybe I can file my zip strap down to 17mm for that size buckle.
Hey Jeff, we don't have a buckle that is compatible with your instep strap. Your best bet will be to reach out to Scarpa directly!

What size zip strap in mm will the Gear RS 2.0 instep buckle accommodate? What size will the Maestrale RS 2.0 instep buckle accommodate? Are they for "wide" zip staps? Scarpa is out of their "wide" mid buckle that I need. Can I return an item if it does not fit? Ty.
Hello Jeff, the Gea RS 2.0 and Maestrale RS 2.0 both use a 17mm instep strap, so I'm not sure the buckle can accommodate a "wide" strap. You are welcome to return a part if it does not work out, the caveat being return shipping is deducted from the refund.
