I'm doing a snowcraft course and I'm not ready to commit to buying boots just yet! I'm looking for something with a rigid sole that can take crampons (pictured: Scarpa Ribelle). I'm a size EUR 37/38. I would need them for 20th-23rd July as well as for a week in September.
If anyone can help, I'd be very grateful!
