I've got La Sportiva Nepals together with Edelrid Beast crampons. These are my first B3/C3 boots/crampons. However, it seems that step-in bindings do not really fit on the toe ledge as the wire does not cover the ledge properly. However, semi-automatic bindings seem to fit a lot better. It seems like both set-ups provide a decent amount of stability (well, kicking wooden floor isn't great and winter is still far away!). Of course, the boots are B3 and should be capable to accept step-in bindings.
Hence, there's a stupid question - which ones should I use? Is there any difference in how sturdy the crampons are going to be?
I am not so keen to go to Tiso/Cotswold as I didn't buy the boots from them, but I don't know any other place which would give me a hand.
P.s. As I had some Amazon vouchers and I had to buy crampons online. I couldn't get them fitted by someone who is more experienced.
