In reply to Basemetal:
I'm old enough to have had several pairs of EBs when it was just about all you could get. I later had the Boreal Ballet and reckoned they were the nearest thing to EBs I'd had. Brilliant. Had 'em resoled 2ce. I believe there's now again a Boreal Ballet available with the high ankle. No idea if they're in any way like the older version.
OR: a 3rd for the TCPro. Impressed that nearly everybody had 'em when I was at Red Rocks a couple of years ago and swore by them I got some. But because I reckoned the rubber was a bit harder and therefore seemed less sticky I went off them and sold them. If I'm right about that they could be just what you're after AND they have ankle cover a la EB.
FOOTNOTE: I note Alex Honnold doesn't have any trouble with their stickiness, nor owt else about them!
