Hint 130 GW Boot - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I have been skiing the Hint 130 GW Boot on aggressive resort days and short backcountry missions, and the 130 flex drives hard on steep terrain without ever feeling like a compromise on uphill mobility. The integrated walk mechanism is smooth and reliable, the GripWalk soles make walking the lodge deck and parking lot feel natural, and the Dynafit inserts open up a huge range of binding compatibility for riders who want to mix resort and touring setups."

Some days, the line you want requires a short hike to earn it, and the Scott Hint 130 GW Boot is built to make sure that hike never becomes the reason you leave it untracked. Designed as a freeride boot that takes its performance DNA from the best alpine builds, it combines a durable PU shell with a 130 flex index and precise 99mm last to deliver the kind of powerful, locked-in response that aggressive skiers demand on steep terrain, variable snow, and technical lines both inside the ropes and beyond them.

The integrated ski/walk mechanism adds meaningful backcountry capability without diluting the boot's alpine character, opening up 55 degrees of cuff rotation for approaches, bootpacks, and short tours where covering ground on foot is part of the objective. Dynafit certified tech inserts expand binding compatibility to include a wide range of touring setups, while GripWalk certified rubber soles provide natural, confident traction on everything from lodge walkways to icy approach terrain. Four Ergal micro-adjustable buckles and a Scott pre-shaped Rebound Pro Strap create a precise, high-performance closure that holds the foot firmly through high-impact landings and sustained hard skiing. The integral thermo Hint Performance liner completes the package with a custom-moldable fit that only improves with time on snow. For riders who want a freeride boot that genuinely handles the full picture of modern mountain skiing, the Hint 130 GW Boot earns its place at the top of the quiver.
