Tecnica Dragon 100 UltraFit Boot - Men's - 2008 BCS

I have put an entire season in this boot and have really enjoyed them. It is actually pretty comfortable, has padding in the right places, and fits my foot nicely. My foot width is average, so it doesn't squeeze too much sideways (I actually have a little more room than I'd like). My only semi-complaint about this boot is that the buckle system isn't the greatest. It seems that Technica wanted to make the buckles look fancy, which I believes takes away from their ease of use. They still work just fine, they just are a little bit harder to get buckled up than a regular buckle. I would NOT let that stop my from buying them though. This is a great boot!!

I tried these on at my local boot fitters the other day. Though I will say they were comfy for my high volume arch, where I have a lot of pressure on my instep usually, I couldn't say these were a good value. For the high price, the boot was a little too flexy for a 100 rating. I feel like you're paying for extraneous features, like over-engineered buckles and graphics. If money isn't an object, however, and you want a boot with more like a 90 flex rating, then this one would be just dandy.
