Gea RS in medium-volume territory rather than wide.

The redesign moves the Scarpa Gea RS to a 125 flex on a 101 mm last with four buckles and a Booster Active Power Strap, which is a real change in fit and drive from the three-buckle 120 that came before. A Vibram Cayman LT sole, ISO 9523 (Touring), with certified tech inserts pairs the Scarpa Gea RS with pin\/tech touring bindings. At 1,405 g per boot the Scarpa Gea RS asks for a reason to be carried, and a 105 mm ski in variable snow is that reason.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Scarpa","offers":[{"title":"22.5","offer_id":48748266356893,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-22.5","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"23","offer_id":48748266389661,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-23.0","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"23.5","offer_id":48748266422429,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-23.5","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"24","offer_id":48748266455197,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-24.0","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"24.5","offer_id":48748266487965,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-24.5","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"25","offer_id":48748266520733,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-25.0","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"25.5","offer_id":48748266553501,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-25.5","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"26","offer_id":48748266586269,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-26.0","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"26.5","offer_id":48748266619037,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-26.5","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"27","offer_id":48748266651805,"sku":"12059\/502-PrWhtInd-27.0","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0256\/7103\/files\/12059-502-1_01_GEA-RS_PuW-Ind_GeaRS_PureWhite-Indigo.jpg?v=1787333441","url":"https:\/\/cripplecreekbc.com\/products\/scarpa-gea-rs-touring-boot","provider":"Cripple Creek Backcountry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
