I'd like to see these two get married!

I know, hard to visualisebut I would really like to see these two boots have mutant off spring in a size 45.















How about a real climbing boot you can actually ski in that istech binding compatible @ about 900g per boot?

"The truth is that LaSportiva's original heritage business was leather ski boots and when it all went to plastic in the 70's La Sportiva abandoned the category because they couldn't afford the plastic injection mold investment costs and that is when they really started focusing on climbing and mountaineering"Colin Lantz, La SportivaThe brain trust is there, who better to combine the two technologies?

Something similar in volumeto the TLT and a price aroundthe TLT Performance's retail? Doublethe retail price of the Spantik and still save money?!

The technology is obviously there now. Not like we are looking back to the future or anything. Galiber's "Rigid Rand" fromthe '70s.





Scott Super Lights from the '70s as well.





With the current technology this would be easy. Would you want a pair?
