The Phantom 8000 represents the very pinnacle of Scarpa design, seeing them create the warmest technical boot for use on the world’s highest and coldest mountains.
Built around the expedition-proven double boot concept, the innovative Phantom 8000 uses state of the art construction with H-Dry direct lamination and PU Tek Technology on the gaiter and a carbon Tech 3 SL midsole to reduce the overall weight by 100g compared to the previous model. The gaiter also now has an offset waterproof zip to make the outer boot even easier to get on and off when wearing gloves.
The inner shell is even warmer and easier to operate than before. Wintherm technology creates a secondary layer of insulation under the gaiter. The Sock-fit XT tongue combined with the new fast lock lace system and fast strap closure make it even easier to get a close, precise fit, with no pressure points over the foot.
The Altitude 8000 inner boot uses water repellent Microtech with water repellent Wintherm technology and a new insole made of EVA and 5mm cork all combining to add a comfortable and extremely warm ecosphere around the foot. It's now even easier to get on too, with a dual pull tab and water repellent zip.
