Catered to backcountry skiers who like to do it all, the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT Alpine Touring Boot has your back on the steepest terrain whether you are accessing it via lift or legs. We like how these more→boots look and feel like a backcountry touring boot when wee need them too, but offer 4 aluminum buckles and a GripWalk sole for when the resort comes calling.
