Scarpa Manta vs. LaSportiva Eiger vs. Kayland Zeus

More leather boot input requested...

 

I picked up a pair of Mantas. I like them, but I'm not so crazy about their lacing system. It's difficult to snug them up in one lacing session. The Eiger's are awesome on that front, but they weight about a pound more (read: 16 fucking ounces more.) Ditto for the Zeus, but man the Zeus is plush. One bad thing I've heard about the Kayland is that the soles wear out super quick.

 

I'm looking for a versatile general mountaineering boot. It needs to have good support, a stiff (not rigid) sole, and suitable for both long approaches and alpine ice.

 

If you have any of these, I'd apprecaite your thoughts.
