Black Diamond Method Alpine Touring Boot - Men's

Cold Toes

By Ranked #755 - Alpine Touring Boots March 17, 2009

Like others initially my toes were so cold it was hard to believe. I remoulded them with thicker toe moulds and presto, warm feet!
I have now skied in my Methods about 50 days, and find they'll do anything I'd expect from an alpine boot, and tour like a dream.
They make my Garmont Endorphins look like toys.
$ buckle tourers definately rule.

I am curious as to what you meant by: 'I remoulded them with thicker toe moulds." I am just curious as to what that process entailed. Just purchased myself a set, and will be taking it on its first tour in a couple of days.
