Scarpa SL Active
The Scarpa SL is the 9th generation of this classic, really tough trekking
boot, now even more luxurious and comfortable, while still being fully
compatible with C1 walking crampons.The new Scarpa SL is now built on the latest TM last shape, giving an
improved heel fit and closer fit across the forefoot. The redesigned
upper uses a soft nubuck leather cuff with a cut out at the achilles, as
well as redesigned flex zone, giving greater comfort on long descents
and ascents in the mountains. The revised speed lacing system gives a
sure hold across the instep, and the plush leather lining inside the
boot is instantly luxurious and comfortable.The SL is built using a 2.8mm Sherpa leather (the toughest and most
waterproof of any full grain leather Scarpa uses) impregnated with HS12
and build as a one piece construction for durable weather protection.
The SL also uses the Vibram biometric trek sole for traction and support
when carrying a large pack. The leather and 37.5 lining (and lack of
membrane) make this a brilliant boot for warm weather trekking.
