115-Flex Women's Freeride Hybrid Boot

Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W Alpine Touring Boot

The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W is a 1,345-gram (size 25) women's freeride hybrid boot with a 100 mm last, a 115 flex, and a GripWalk (ISO 23223) sole with tech inserts, built for women who want one boot for both the resort and the backcountry.

Is This the Right Boot for You?

Best For
Women with low-volume, narrow feet who want one four-buckle boot for resort and backcountry skiing, ski aggressively on the descent, and still want 61 degrees of cuff rotation on the skin track.
Consider Another Boot If
You have a wide or high-volume foot, a high instep, or you want a dedicated lightweight touring boot, since the 4-Quattro XT W is a low-volume, 1,345-gram freeride tool rather than a fast-and-light ski-mountaineering boot.

Why We Like It

  • At 1,345 g per boot (size 25), the 4-Quattro XT W skis like a resort boot while touring with a 61-degree range of motion, a balance few women's four-buckle boots reach.
  • The 115 flex is strong and supportive for a women's touring boot, tuned softer than the men's 130 XT for lighter skiers while keeping the same overlap shell.
  • The GripWalk (ISO 23223) Presa sole with tech inserts lets one boot pair with GripWalk alpine bindings and pin-tech touring bindings.
  • The four-buckle closure with a Booster power strap wraps the low-volume shell securely for real downhill drive.
  • Recco reflector technology is built in, adding a searchability aid for backcountry days.
  • The Intuition 4PRO Flex XT women's liner is heat-moldable, with a scalloped cuff to accommodate the calf.

Best Uses

  • One-boot quiver for resort days with a walk mode plus backcountry touring
  • Freeride and sidecountry laps that mix lift access with short skins
  • Aggressive skiing on skis 88 to 105 mm underfoot
  • Women with narrow, low-volume, low-instep feet
  • 50/50 skiers who want GripWalk and pin-tech compatibility in one boot

Bootfitter's Advice

The 4-Quattro XT W is one of the lower-volume women's boots we fit, running narrow through the midfoot with a notably low, tight instep. After fitting these, we find they suit narrow, flat, low-volume feet best. The instep and the second buckle can feel very snug out of the box, so plan on a heat mold to open the area, and confirm size with a shell fit rather than a street-shoe conversion.

We can punch the Grilamid Bio forefoot across the metatarsals, which the shell accepts well, but the low instep is the hardest area to gain volume in beyond a firm liner mold. Skiers with a high instep should budget for fit work or look at a higher-volume shell. Molding the Intuition liner locks in heel hold, and the scalloped cuff helps skiers with a lower or larger calf.

4-Quattro XT W vs. Scarpa Gea RS

The Scarpa Gea RS is a three-buckle women's touring boot on a 102 mm last with a Vibram Cayman LT (ISO 9523) sole, tuned for efficient touring and quicker transitions. The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W is a lower-volume four-buckle boot with a GripWalk sole for resort compatibility and a firmer, more overlap-style flex. Skiers who mostly tour lean Gea RS, while 50/50 skiers who ski lifts lean 4-Quattro XT W.

4-Quattro XT W vs. Scarpa 4-Quattro SL W

The Scarpa 4-Quattro SL W uses a softer Pebax Rnew shell and a standard power strap for a 100 flex, while the 4-Quattro XT W runs a stiffer Grilamid Bio shell and a Booster strap for a firmer 115 on the same 100 mm last. Lighter or more conservative skiers often choose the SL W, while skiers who charge choose the XT W.

4-Quattro XT W vs. Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD 115 W

Skiers cross-shop these two as women's boots that ski inbounds and tour. The Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD 115 W is a 98 mm-last alpine-touring boot with a GripWalk sole, while the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W tours with a longer 61-degree range of motion and sits lower to the ski. Foot shape and how much you tour usually decide between them.

Common Questions

Who should buy the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W?
The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W suits women with narrow, low-volume feet who want one four-buckle boot for both the resort and the backcountry. It skis a strong 115 flex on skis 88 to 105 mm underfoot and still tours with 61 degrees of cuff rotation, which makes it a genuine quiver-of-one for 50/50 skiers.
How is the 4-Quattro XT W different from the men's 4-Quattro XT?
The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W shares the same shell, 100 mm last, and construction as the men's 4-Quattro XT. The differences are a softer 115 flex versus the men's 130, a slightly scalloped liner cuff to accommodate the calf, added Recco reflector technology, and color. Skiers who want the softer flex sometimes choose the XT W regardless of gender.
What bindings work with the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W?
The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W has a GripWalk (ISO 23223) Presa sole plus certified tech inserts. It works with GripWalk and MNC alpine bindings, hybrid bindings such as the Salomon Shift and CAST, and pin-tech (low-tech) touring bindings. It is not compatible with standard ISO 5355-only alpine bindings. Confirm any MNC or hybrid pairing against your specific binding.
How does the sizing and fit run on the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W?
The 4-Quattro XT W is a low-volume, narrow boot with a low, tight instep, so it fits flat, narrow feet best. Length runs close to true Mondo. The instep and second buckle can feel very snug out of the box, so we recommend a shell fit and a heat mold rather than sizing up for room.
Can the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W be punched and molded?
Yes. We can punch the Grilamid Bio forefoot across the metatarsals, which it accepts well, and the Intuition liner is heat-moldable. The low instep is the hardest area to gain volume, so skiers with a high instep should plan on fit work or a higher-volume boot such as the Scarpa Gea RS.
How well does the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W tour?
For a four-buckle boot the 4-Quattro XT W tours very well, with 61 degrees of cuff rotation that is much freer than a typical 50/50 alpine-touring boot. At 1,345 g per boot it is heavier than a dedicated touring boot, so women focused on big-vertical days may prefer a lighter option like the Scarpa Gea.
Is the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W warm enough for touring?
The Intuition 4PRO Flex XT women's liner is thermoformable and reasonably warm for a performance touring boot. Because the shell is low-volume and snug, we recommend a heat mold for the best fit and warmth, and skiers with cold feet can add a warmer aftermarket liner.
What skis pair well with the Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W?
The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W drives freeride and all-mountain skis 88 to 105 mm underfoot with confidence. The low stand height and 115 flex reward skiers who like to push a supportive ski both inbounds and in the backcountry.

Our Verdict

The Scarpa 4-Quattro XT W is a strong pick for women who genuinely split their time between the resort and the backcountry. It skis a supportive 115 flex on a four-buckle overlap shell, sits low to the ski, and still tours with 61 degrees of cuff rotation and a GripWalk sole that pairs with both alpine and pin-tech bindings. The trade is fit and weight: at 1,345 g per boot it is a freeride tool, not a lightweight tourer, and the low-volume, low-instep shape rewards narrow feet. For a narrow-footed skier who wants one boot to charge inbounds and tour, the 4-Quattro XT W is an easy recommendation.
