Boot question: I currently have Sportiva Nepal Evo's in 44.0. I have fairly narrow, low volume feet but am intrigued by the new Scarpa Phantom Techs. Anyone have feedback how they compare to the Nepals fit and sizing-wise? Appreciate you!

I had some 42.5 Nepal Cubes, I have 41.5 Phantom Techs. I ordered phantom techs off of the scarpa sizing on their website (8.5 street shoe), and I found it to be pretty accurate. I have plenty of room to move my toes and space in front, and could maaaaybe go down a half size but I as it is I don’t get any toe bang and have no issues with the 41.5.

I fit into Sportivas true to size quite well with my mid vol feet. The Phantom Tech needed to be 1 full size down for them to be the best fit they could be, which was still a poor fit. I ultimately went with the G5.

Trying a pair is the best bet. For years I’ve lusted for the latest sportiva. They aren’t made for my feet. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
