Need a little help with sizing on the fruit boots.  

I climb in the Phantom Tech (size 43) or Baturas (42.5).

Any suggestions on how you sized your Rebel Ice vs your Phantoms or Baturas?

Thanks in advance!

I wear a 41 in the Tech, and bought a 41 in the ice.  I could barely get my feet in them at all, so I have since removed the insole and use a thinner sock.  I wish I bought a 42, but then who knows, they might have been a bit sloppy, and since they don't make 1/2 sizes no 41.5 for me. I would recommend trying them on if you can first, or if you are shooting for only one pair, go up to a 44.  IMHO they run narrow and small, they are a bitch to get into but once on, fit like a rock shoe.  Also, fining hardware for the bolt on crampons (I went with BD) was a pain in the ass, but I found bolts that worked for me after about an hour at the massive hardware store and a drop of locktight.

I don't know about the fruit boots but the Phantom Tech fit the exact same sizing as the Rebel Pro GTX.

*Edit.  After looking at the Scarpa site, it's evident that the Rebel Ice (AI) are built on a different last than the Rebel Pro (NAG). Which is the same last as the Phantom Tech.

so all this said.... I am a 42.5 LaSportiva, should I go 42 or 43 since they don't come in half size ... ( I have never used any Sacapa boots before )

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
