The Scarpa Manta has been an icon in the UK market for over three decades!. As a multi-award winning model in various generations,it has represented the “benchmark” in 4-season mountain boots. Evolving over many generations as below, the new Manta Tech represents the 7th incarnation in a long line of market leading equity! Built on the proven and very well appreciated FT/ FTW last, it offers a unique and complimentary fit to other models in the mountain collection. The outsole package maintains its stability with a proven, durable and reliable package that suits the workhorse nature of the boot and underfoot assurance is maintained with the outstanding Vibram Mulaz S sole unit. The key changes however focus on the upper, where lines have been cleaned reducing stitching and materials facilitating the updated cosmetics which now marry much more to the global line of mountaineering, whilst maintaining a perfect flexation/support balance in the cuff area. The use of a larger heel pull tab facilitates easier access in and out of the boot, especially with a gloved hand. The use of the partial TPU rand, has helped with the optics, but also reduced some weight, alongside the new lace hardware. A key update has been to use the higher insulation of the GTX Duratherm, which willallow the boot to perform at a higher altitude and in colder conditions than previousgenerations.
