Scarpa TX Pro 2025 Telemark Boot
The result of 15 years research and development the new generation TX Pro showcases Scarpa's expertise in developing telemark boots that push the boundaries of what's possible and the 2025 TX Pros are, lighter, stiffer and have a massive 62° cuff rotation in walk mode, making efficent touring a reality for the first time for a tele boot.
While looking superficially similar to the previous generation boots, the 2025 TX Pros are packed with so many updates that the final result is revolutionary.
The shells have a new bellows that follows the natural flex of the foot. The last of the boots stays the same at 102 mm but shell volume is lower with thinner liners, resulting in a boot that surrounds the foot like an exoskeleton.
The new boots are about 12% lighter and this, combined with the excellent 62° of friction-free rotation in walk mode, makes skinning uphill efficient and this should boost the number of free heel ski tourers.
The TX Pros have a medium stiff tongue combined with a cuff that's considerably stiffer than the previous model and in ski mode the shell, tongue and cuff work together seamlessly, providing excellent control and boot-ski contact. The cuff only has only one buckle plus an elasticated Booster Strap.
Getting in and out of the boots is quick and easy, the buckles work really well and the Booster Strap has a handy "G" hook that speeds things up.
Scarpa have taken the time to develop what are certainly the most advanced all round telemark boots to date. No other boots combine excellent downhill control with good tourability.
Features Scarpa TX Pro 2025:
Shell:
Pebax Rnew. The new shells are shorter and narrower giving a snug fit.
Built with Scarpa’s Torsion ridge Frame and Triple Injection technologies, the shell is lighter yet laterally stiffer.
Cuff:
Pebax Rnew. The new TX Pros have a slightly lower cuff plus an adjustable spoiler, with a total height that's the same as the previous boot.
Tongue:
Pebax.
Bellows:
The bellows have a more ergonomic flex that corresponds to what your feet are doing inside. Combined with the flex zone of the Intuition liners, flex is natural and we didn’t notice any toe pinch even with a low stance.
Buckles:
The new TX Pros come with three buckles. The 1st and 3rd buckles are lightweight DWA aluminium levers with micro-metric adjustment while the 2nd buckle has a plastic ratchet closure mechanism and locks the heel in place to avoid heel lift.
The 1st buckle is reversed with the buckle on top of the boot and the tooth catch mounted on the outside of the boot, just above the NTN 2nd heel.
The cuff now only has one buckle but this wraps the cuff around the leg securely providing more than enough closure.
Powerstrap:
The elasticated Booster Strap is equipped with a Recco avalanche reflector and has a convenient “G” shaped hook that makes boot entry and exit quick and easy.
Ski/Walk Lever:
The Speedlock MLT ski / walk lever is light yet solid and easy to switch modes.
Cuff Rotation:
The 2025 TX Pros come with a massive 62° of pretty much friction-free cuff movement (37°back, 25° forward), almost 3x the 22° of the older TX Pros.
Cuff Lean ski mode:
14° + 2°. In ski mode the cuff has 14° forward lean, with the possibility to advance another 2°.
Liners:
The Intuition® Pro Flex TK liners weigh 10 g less and are thinner than the previous model, but were warm and comfortable.
The TK refers to the neat flex zone above the toes, Intuition’s 1st telemark specific liners.
