Great to read other opinions. So, what, if any of the Scarpa line would compare/replace the Sportiva Nepal EVO? I've climbed in the Sportiva, vert ice, alpine, and ok for longer approaches(not without discomfort). They are very nice but now in need of another, looking around for the latest/greatest (lightest??).

ok i have a couple of Options for you. The lightest would be Charmoz. This one doesn't have insulation but is a climbing machine. That would be lightest and most walkable. Summit GTX would be similar to Lasportiva boots you have and it does have insulation. Freney your looking at is primarily and Ice climbing specific boot. Hope this helps.
