La Sportiva Skorpius CR II Alpine Touring Boot - 2025 Black/Yellow, 23.5

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I reach for the Skorpius CR II when I want big range of motion on the skintrack without giving up backbone on the down. The BOA(R) lets me micro-tune fit before a long climb, and the Swing-Lock lever makes transitions quick with gloves on. Three forward lean settings help me dial stance for steeps or trees, and the thermomoldable liner nailed my heel hold after one bake. Despite the low weight, the carbon-reinforced Pebax(R) shell drives mid-fat skis confidently."We chase dawn patrols and late-day corn laps with the Skorpius CR II locked in. La Sportiva builds this touring boot for big vert missions where efficient climbs matter as much as clean arcs on the exit. On the up, the 68deg range of motion and BOA(R) micro-adjustment free our stride and keep hotspots at bay. On the down, the progressive flex feels smooth and supportive when we open it up. Under the hood, a carbon-reinforced Pebax(R) Rnew(R) shell and cuff trim grams without sacrificing stiffness in the cold, while the EZ 3D Flex Tongue(TM) eases entry and fine-tunes shin comfort. Three forward lean positions (12deg, 14deg, 16deg) and an adjustable spoiler help us find our stance, and the thermomoldable liner locks in a custom fit. Tech/TR2 binding compatibility and La Sportiva's Grip Guard(TM) sole round out a fast, confidence-inspiring package.
