First Impressions and FitJeff V: My first impressions out of the box were that the Spin Ultra has a uniquely Scarpa look to them. It is evident right away that the build quality is superb and there is a high level of protection and durability. Comfort out of the box is very good, with no break in needed. Fit is true to size, very secure overall from the heel, to the midfoot and through the toe box. The toe box, while not wide, gives ample wiggle room for splay, swelling and general all day comfort, without sacrificing security. UpperJeff V: The Micro Nubuck and mesh upper offers excellent support and protection with an array of criss crossing overlays for support around the midfoot, forming a sort of cage for superb security. All around security and stability is excellent no
