Scarpa PHANTOM 6000 HD Mountaineering Boots, Black and Bright Orange, Size 47

The Scarpa PHANTOM 6000 HD are high-altitude mountaineering boots engineered for extreme environments. These boots feature a sophisticated integrated gaiter system constructed from S-TECH Schoeller Ecorepel Bio and PU TEK technology, providing exceptional abrasion resistance and water protection through an HDry membrane. Designed for professional mountaineers, they offer a precise fit, advanced thermal insulation, and reliable performance on ice and snow.

Advantages

These boots provide superior thermal regulation through the use of Wintherm technology and an Aerogel-infused insole, which effectively minimize heat loss. The inclusion of a removable inner liner, the New Mountain 6000, allows for comfort and warmth during rest periods at base camps. The construction utilizes the SockFit XT system, which wraps the foot securely to enhance agility and comfort. Furthermore, the boots are equipped with a RECCO reflector to aid in search and rescue operations, and the Vibram Durastep outsole ensures maximum grip and durability on technical, frozen terrain.

Suitable for

• High-altitude mountaineering and alpine expeditions
• Technical ice climbing and mixed terrain navigation
• Professional use in extreme cold and snowy conditions

When it may not be suitable

These boots are specialized equipment designed for high-altitude and extreme cold. They are not suitable for general hiking, trekking on well-maintained trails, or low-altitude activities where their heavy-duty insulation and rigid construction would be unnecessary and uncomfortable.

Key specifications

• Weight: 1.05 kg
• Integrated waterproof and breathable HDry membrane
• Compatible with automatic crampons
• Fast Lock System for independent shell adjustment
• RECCO avalanche rescue reflector
• Vibram Durastep rubber outsole
• Removable inner liner with PrimaLoft insulation

How to use

To put on the boots, open the external heat-sealed YKK zipper and adjust the internal Fast Lock System to achieve a secure fit around the foot. Ensure the internal drawstring at the collar is tightened to prevent snow ingress. The boots are compatible with automatic crampons for technical climbing. After use, remove the inner liner to allow for proper drying and maintenance. The boots can be resoled at authorized service centers to extend their lifespan.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the size 47 is appropriate for your foot shape and the thickness of socks used in extreme cold.
• Verify compatibility with your specific crampon model.
• Consider the intended altitude and temperature range for your expedition.

Usage recommendations: Always inspect the YKK zipper and gaiter fabric for debris before each use to ensure a proper seal. Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources when not in use to maintain the integrity of the thermal insulation materials.
