Boot quiver of one
By Pat Wright
Ranked #456 - Alpine Touring Boots
March 9, 2009
I ski all over the place(rockies, S. america, europe, asia). I do alpine touring ski mountaineering and lift served. I like AT boots because of the lightness;not just for touring but for air travel also. These boots are great for me. They have all the drive necassary for any task, they are warm and comfortable. I love the the new Alpine/AT sole. I use mine in alpine bindings and Fritchi's. This is a fairly high volume boot. I would say the flex is medium to firmish. In touring mode it is very comfy with or without changing the tongue. They are a bit of a pain to put on and off but that not really important. These would be great boots for a guide, patroller or anyone with a very high instep.
Be careful with the beautiful intuition liners . They abrade easily and there will be rubs from the shell to protect from.
Cons: The color is putrid, who cares (subjective)
