I used these with Scarpa Spirit 3s just fine. You sometimes have to undo buckles and put the crampon straps under the buckle and then rebuckle the boot.

I use these with my Dynafit Zzeus on the cascade volcanoes, and they fit perfectly. I found that they fit better and more securely than the BD and Petzl step-in crampons that I tried because the ski boot had a narrower profile, so those tended to wiggle a bit.

You could, but you would be better off with the Neve Pro Crampons. Step in crampons are easier to use with ski boots.
