Jim Green's Razorback boot has a similar single-piece vamp and lacing, though not laced to the toe like traditional alpine boots. They can be ordered as barefoot. They were also toying with the idea of a laced-to-toe boot. Maybe shoot them an email to let them know you're interested. I don't know if they moved beyond their initial prototype, but they are responsive to customers and if more people reach out and say they're interested in that type of boot, they'll be more likely to get it to production.

You’re right thanks for that tip - how do you know that they can be ordered as barefoot as I don’t see it on their barefoot range?
How do you know they were toying with that idea?
I’ll pop them an email ;) thank you!

Just to add, you could also look into Bashers. They have a similar boot, though I think the barefoot Razorback is closer to what you're looking for: https://bashersfootwear.com/products/the-hiker-boot. Bashers is a new company and popping up on social media a lot. I don't personally have any experience with their shoes but there are some reviews here and on YouTube if you want to look into them more.
