Plusfit Ice thermal-moldable liner delivers excellent fit, comfort, and warmth in frigid temperatures. Baltoro rubber soles provide strong adhesion on wet rock and snow. Low-cut cuff with soft, stretch Cordura collar for foot flex and extension. UK (British) sizes are listed; for a conversion to US, please consult the size chart."

From Backcountry Outlet:
"In extreme situations, when a lack of stability could have fatal consequences, lace up the Scarpa Omega Mountaineering Boot. This technical and precise plastic double-boot refuses to give up even when your legs turn to jelly. Carbon fiber sole inserts reinforce the Omega Mountaineering Boot without adding overall weight. The hinged ankle frees your movement so you can travel comfortably across terrain usually limited to mountain goats. Light and warm, the Omega Mountaineering Boot features an inner thermo liner that molds to your foot's specific contours and keeps you warm when you foolishly decide to investigate a crevasse."

Men's Omega
Reviewed by Manuel Lowenhaupt, Jul 24, 2008

"Third pair of plastics for me. Much more nimble, plenty warm. Had read of durability problems but have two good seasons of use. Not a bad rocker for walk in, nice and easy to get on in the frozen morning. Great fit with my Grivel crampons. The best hard shell I have seen."
