In reply to TheAmateurAlpinist:
You may find those super lights are a bit too bendy to climb steep ice well, it can be a pattern with super / ultra light boots. They can be more like b2 even if they have the b3 fitting.
Boots you should also look at include Scarpa rebel ultra and nepal extremes. Probably you should choose the one that fits best. If they fit the Nepal’s are good. The only criticism of the Nepals ( or Gtx sister models) is the sole and welt of the front toe welt have a tendency to wear down from the walkins and can often impair c3 crampon fit somewhat.
Personally I find most leather boots give me blisters too easily. But I have odd shaped heels.
