By Ranked #128 - Alpine Touring Boots December 27, 2011

This boot kicks ass down and does ok uphill. I can't say that I have much to compare it against other than my BC XC setup, but these boots are heavy! More Downhill than uphill here. However, I worked as a ski instructor in these boots for 8+ hours a day with no complaints. I have skinny ankles and I had to put extra padding in the tongue to get a good fit. The sole on the toes has come loose on both boots, lame. They should be able to handle a 3 hour uphill hike and without the sole splitting! snow then gets clogged in there... and I cant clip in. The heel of the boot is too tall for my bindings and I had to shave off the sole to make it fit. Overall, these boots have a less than average fit and the problem with the soles is silly. Spend some more money and get something else.
