Scratch that, looks like the Scarpa INSTINCT S is the direct replacement. Now all i need is somewhere that sells them.
Have you thought about the boosters? I went through my last pair of stix recently and the boosters seem very similar (I take the same size in both). I'm guessing they will be going on the cheap when the new range comes out.
PS: WTF was wrong with the Spectros (apart from the pain)?
Be £35 soon enough. Have patience.
