Scarpa Phantom Tech HD
The Scarpa Phantom Tech HD is a technical B3 mountain boot for cold-weather mountaineering and ice climbing.
Extremely lightweight, precise and with a comfortable fit, the Scarpa Phantom Tech HD boots offer great finesse. The new waterproof gaiter design uses PU Tek technology to create a lightweight but highly durable outer with a high degree of feel. This new technology also helps to reduce the overall weight by 110g, making the Phantom Tech the lightest boot in its class.
Scarpa has also incorporated the H-Dry technology which possesses the highest level of waterproofness, breathability and insulation a boot can have. The waterproof and breathable membrane is firmly laminated to the upper inner side and there are no gaps or seams where water can penetrate inside. The rain and cold are blocked out of the shoe’s outer surface and this large volume of air helps to keep your feet warm and comfortable.
The inner shell features a Primaloft 100 insulation layer and incorporates 100 g/m² Primaloft Gold insulation Eco with grip control made from 100% recycled micropile. This offers you outstanding warmth and manages moisture extremely well so your feet remain comfortable in damp wet conditions. The lace lock system have been reinforced with kevlar yarns for added durability.
Scarpa has also introduced RECCO technology to the Phantom Tech HD for added safety. The RECCO reflector makes you searchable to professional rescuers in the event of an avalanche accident or injury.
The sole rubber is made from Vibram-Durastep which is exclusive to the design, a compound able to offer the highest reliability on the most difficult terrains at low temperatures. The sole unit features a technology called Precision Tewch Roll AC/D. At the rear of the sole, you can find a Bi-Density PU midsole which has a medium-density PU for extra support and stability in the heel. Cloer to the front of the boot, you can find the same Bi-Density TPU midsole but with a lower density, this offers a light cushion and added density for technical footwork whilst climbing.
Beat that!
