You'd think there'd be more options for a good, hard climbing mixed boot.
My boot arsenal at the moment consists of Nepals and a set of Baturas. My Nepals aren't good for it, the Baturas that I do have, I love to peices but I ordered half a size to small (when I ordered I wasn't able to try em on way back when) so they're tight and uncomfortable depending on the day, not a huge deal but still enough to make me look for a new boot for the harder mixed I've been doing lately to complement the other 2 boots.
I'd prefer a Gore-Tex lining,
Low profile
front and rear welt
light
Slightly warm (not necessarily as warm as the Baturas which are perfect for this weather I have but at least some insolation)
The Scarpa Freney xt gtx doesn't seem to look bad at all and is what I'm leaning towards,...
The phantom light has always interested me and is on sale everywhere due to the phantom guide coming out soon... (essentially another Batura, I know!)
Trango prime LOOKS good (no GoreTex lining), but havn't found too many happy people with it from reviews
Trango extreme evo light gtx looks alright as well.
Any suggestions? This would really be only for hard mixed, as I use the Baturas on the Ice and everything else.
