In the recent sales I purchased a pair each of the Scarpa Manta Pro, Scarpa Charmoz and Scarpa Ribelle Lite OD boots.
All seem to fit really well when double socked as I always do on the hills. However, I can't decide on which pair to keep and which two to take back and I definitely can't keep all 3 as tempting as it is!
Manta seems the most durable, has the most inner padding and has the GTX factor.
Charmoz seems to come in slightly lighter and was cheaper but with no negatives vs Manta.
Ribelle is almost the same price as Charmoz, very light and comfortable making it perfect for the walk in as well as the more challenging slopes though loses some ankle support, padding and stiffness.
I'm looking to use these boots as my winter boots with C2 crampons when called for. I'm mostly doing easyish winter Munros with no technical climbing but am looking to start doing some more winter gully exploration.
Anyone got any experience or points worth considering on these boots please?
Thanks!
