The F1 LT from Scarpa inherits the ascent DNA of the Alien RS: very light (990 grams per shoe), incredible shaft rotation (72 degrees), and a sporty fit (100 millimeter last).

However, Scarpa has managed to elevate the downhill performance of a lightweight shoe to the next level with the F1 LT. This is made possible by the 3D-Lambda frame – a kind of skeleton on the shell and the shaft – and the Carbon Grilamid LFT material.

Both features enhance flex and torsional stiffness while simultaneously reducing shell thickness, resulting in greater strength and lower weight. The progressive flex is arguably unique in this weight class, ensuring precise control of the skis.

The Gaiter Shell construction forgoes a fixed tongue and is instead equipped with waterproof Lite Shield Tech fabric, effectively preventing snow intrusion. At the same time, the Boa Fit System over the foot, a single Fast Buckle Closure strap at the leg, and the Velcro Power Strap above provide excellent support and guarantee even pressure distribution – without pressure points. All three can be quickly, individually, and precisely adjusted.

The Speed Lock LT ski-walk mechanism allows you to set three different forward lean positions – efficiently and quickly. This makes switching between ascent and descent a breeze.

The Intuition Tour LT liner ensures a precise yet comfortable fit. The liner is thermoformable, meaning it can be customized. Even with prolonged use, your feet stay warm and free from pressure points.

At the bottom of the F1 Lite, the Vibram UFO LT sole offers maximum grip and sensitivity on rock while featuring large, self-cleaning grooves. The right shoe for demanding uphill and downhill conditions.
