Zena, my favourite AT boot 01-26-08

Having tried various Scarpa boots each with very uncomfortable results I found Xena and love it!
The front of my foot is wide, my heels narrow and my arches high. If you have a similar foot I would highly recommend them. I have now used these boots for about 60 days and have not had one problem with them.
I absolutely love these boots. I sized them a bit bigger than my alpine boots for the purpose of having then for mountaineering and long touring trips, and they have been perfect. Like any ski boot, I got a bit of bootwork done on them so they fit my feet comfortably, and they have been amazing. I've skiied in them close to 100 days. A great combination of a lightweight boot that gives you responsiveness and control.
I have had several touring boots - these ones aren't light, but they give the best control that I've tried so far, and are fine for long tours.
I skied down a 35 degree slope recently with one boot accidentally in "walk" mode and I didn't even notice because the natural stiffness and forward lean give such good control compared with lighter models. Very impressed.
