Product Descriptions
Backcountry Description: Move like a being from another world in the backcountry when you tour with the Scarpa Alien 1.0 Alpine Touring Boot. Advancing light years ahead of its competition, this TLT-compatible boot uses space-age lightweight carbon in the cuff, providing the rigidity you need to make the Kessler run in twelve parsecs. With only one flick of the A-Light single-throw buckle, you can loosen the cuff to achieve incredible rotation for easing long up-tracks and concurring mountain summits.
Retailer Reviews
The 911 GTS of ski boots
Yeah its closely related cousin the Alien (Porsche 911) works great, but this is the full blown Formula One boot ...that can be your daily driver too! Because it lost its bellows it can now handle a fatter ski too. With the carbon cuff (and carbon reinforcements around the ankle in the lower shell) this boots skis like a big boy boot ought too....and then it blows the doors off any other touring boot with its range of motion. Its the best of both worlds. Fit is more snug...my foot loves it. The liner is about 2mm thinner and an over wrap Vs the tongue liner in the (plastic cuffed) Alien. See my review of the Alien for fit etc. Both boots are nearly identical. Get it...if you enjoy racing and powder skiing/touring.
