Scarpa Maestrale RS Men's Alpine Touring Boot

Scarpa's most powerful alpine touring boot, built for expert backcountry skiers who demand the downhill authority of an alpine boot with the uphill efficiency a serious touring objective requires. The Maestrale RS's Grilamid shell, Pebax Rnew cuff, 130 flex, and Speed Lock 4 walk mechanism deliver a boot that drives hard-charging turns with full confidence and unlocks a natural, unrestricted stride on demanding ascents.

Why We Carry It
It's the touring boot we recommend for expert skiers who push hard on both ends of the mountain and aren't willing to accept a downhill compromise in exchange for touring capability.

Highlights

• Grilamid shell with Pebax Rnew cuff at 130 flex — A high-performance shell and bio-based cuff combination that delivers expert-level stiffness and powerful rebound for driving aggressive turns with the authority of a dedicated alpine boot. The Pebax cuff adds a progressive, lively character to the flex profile that pure Grilamid boots can't replicate.
• Speed Lock 4 walk mechanism with 19-degree forward lean range — A four-position walk mechanism that provides a wide, unrestricted range of motion for natural, efficient strides on demanding ascents without compromising the rigidity needed for expert-level downhill performance. Adjustable forward lean from 19 degrees down to 15 degrees for dialing in stance geometry.
• Intuition Pro Flex Performance liner — A thermoformable performance liner that heat-molds precisely to your foot for a high-energy, precision fit that holds its shape across full days of hard skiing without packing out or losing responsiveness over time.
• Four-buckle closure with Booster Active Power Strap — A redesigned closure system that delivers a uniform, high-tension hold eliminating heel lift and micro-movement for maximum energy transfer on every turn. The Booster Active Power Strap adds an additional layer of dynamic hold that a standard power strap can't match.
• 101mm last — A performance-oriented last for expert skiers who want a precise, responsive fit without excess volume that reduces energy transfer and boot-to-ski communication on technical terrain.
• Vibram Cayman LT sole with ISO 9523 certification — Reliable grip on rock, snow, and ice for approach terrain and icy traverses with full AT and TLT binding compatibility for flexibility across different setups.
• AT and TLT dual binding compatibility — Works with both standard alpine touring bindings and Dynafit-style TLT tech bindings without sole compatibility concerns for freedom to pair with any preferred touring binding setup.
• 1,570-gram weight at size 27 — A heavier boot that reflects the 130 flex, four-buckle closure, and full-featured construction of a dedicated expert performance touring boot. A justified weight for skiers who prioritize downhill authority over minimum touring weight.
• PFAS compliant construction — A clean material standard eliminating intentionally added PFAS chemicals from the boot construction.
• Made in Italy — Scarpa's longstanding manufacturing commitment for a boot built to the quality standard that defines the brand.
