Vintage classic leather boots: Scarpa?

[phoenix]

While I'm familiar with the old Ash,o's, Crispi's, Merrell's, and Alico's, I've come across a very tempting looking Scarpa from that golden era of leathers. No model designation, but visually it's about like a Merrell Ultra or Asolo Extreme. My real question is if anyone knows how those Scarpa's were for fit. I did well in Merrel's and Crispis, and OK with Alico's, but Asolo's never fit, as much as I hoped they would... I think those ran kind large, and higher volume; wider heels.
So, any experience with those Scarpa's?

(I'll note that I've worn a bunch of their plastic boots, since the 90's, and their rock climbing shoes... but those aren't indicative of leather 75's)

From your description it sounds like you’re looking at a Scarpa Wasatch. They are one of my favorite boots! Similar to an Asolo Extreme as you mentioned, but I find them easier to tour with. They allow more range of motion and have a lower cut back allowing a longer stride length. It’s basically a taller cuffed Snowpine.

In terms of fit, the most important point is that it’s UK sized. I have a pair of the Wasatch in a size 6 and they’re a performance fit for me. Length wise, they’re a bit shorter than an Alpina Alaska in size 40 and a bit longer than Asolo’s in size 40. Volumetrically, I’d say they’re a bit lower volume than the Alaska’s (and maybe Asolo’s with the normal last, but don’t quote me on that as I don’t have any Asolo’s in my current rotation). I have a very high arch and instep and 100mm width feet.

Hope this helps and that they fit you! If they don’t and they’re a size 6.5 hit me up, I’d love to have a larger pair for longer tours or colder weather.

Thanks, that's helpful! I have some Alaska's, and tried on various Asolo's from that era, so your descriptions make sense to me. I do remember the Wasatch, but never tried them; the ones I'm looking at seem a little different than the ones I recall, but similar.
I'll double check on the size, the ad says they're a 9.5 but good reminder to make sure it's not British sizing.
