The Scarpa F1 XT redefines what a lightweight touring boot can do—designed for expert ski mountaineers who demand efficiency on the ascent and stability on the descent. Built with a refined balance of strength and agility, the F1 XT merges cutting-edge materials with a precision fit for exceptional performance in technical alpine terrain.
At its core, the Grilamid® Fiber Glass shell integrates a full-length Lambda Frame for increased torsional rigidity and progressive flex, ensuring a smooth, powerful feel in every turn. The Carbon Grilamid® LFT cuff enhances responsiveness and energy transmission, while the Cam Buckle Power Strap provides additional control for downhill performance without sacrificing uphill mobility.
For maximum comfort and weather protection, Scarpa’s new Overlap Shield Tech gaiter creates a seamless closure against snow and wind while allowing effortless entry and exit. The lower Wave Lite Closure System secures the foot with a self-equalizing steel cable, distributing pressure evenly across the instep for a dialed-in fit free from hot spots. Together, these technologies deliver an ultra-efficient stride on the skin track and confident power on the descent.
Finished with a PFAS-free waterproof design, a grippy Vibram® UFO LT outsole, and a fully heat-moldable Intuition® Tour L T2 liner, the F1 XT offers the ideal blend of touring efficiency, protection, and performance. Lightweight yet strong, it’s built for skiers who move fast, think big, and cover serious ground.

Ski boots are sized in Mondopoint, based on the length of your foot in centimeters. The chart below is a general reference for converting between sizing systems.
This chart is not a fitting. The only way to know your ski boot size is to be fit in person, either with a Boot Fitting at our shop or from a professional fitting you have had elsewhere. Sizing, shape, and volume vary by brand and model, and a performance fit is snugger than your street shoe. Unworn boots can be returned under our return policy, but a boot that doesn't fit can be a big hassle for your trip if you haven't tried it on.

Conversions are approximate and can differ by half a size between brands.
Ski boots are built with one shell for each full and half size, so a 27 and a 27.5 are the same boot with a different liner or footboard. That is why sizes are listed together, like 27/27.5.
Very few models differ from this. Scarpa is the main exception, pairing sizes the other way (for example, 26.5/27 share a shell). When a model is sized differently, we call it out on that product's page.
