I’m curious as to why more brands (including scarpa actually) haven’t turned to the Alien RS style closure for their lighter general touring boots. That system is light, modular, simple, and skis really damn well for what it is. With a beefier cord and catch it seems like you could make a 1000-1300g boot that tours really well and punches above its weight, all while not having to resort to fucking snowboard buckles to shave grams
