Perfect for Me

By Brendan Ranked #236 - Alpine Touring Boots November 11, 2010

Not sure about the other review where the guy says that these are not an alpine touring boot. These are my first "alpine touring" boot, I switched from a pair of Salomons. First these are incredibly light compared to regular alpine boots, probably about half the weight of my Salomons. As soon as I began touring with these I noticed the lightness of the boot allowing me to go a bit farther will less effort. Secondly with the intuition liners I think these are incredibly comfortable. The stiffness of the boot feels perfect, and very similar to an alpine advanced boot(not a race boot). Stiff enough to power through crud, but forgiving enough to come up short on a table. I plan to ride a bit of park with these too, and so far I think with the weight and the stiffness they will be perfect. The last thing I love is the Vibram sole. Again coming from worn down alpine boots it's definitely a huge improvement. I would recommended these to my friends.
