Ashley T.'s Review
- The fit is great!
- Toes just touching, heel hold is great, instep comfy.
- A bit surprised by the single speed zone lace?
- I would buy this boot, but the single lace would take some getting used too.

Ashley F.'s Review
- Toes aren't touching the end, would have to size down.
- Width and heel hold is perfect.
- Would prefer to have the dual speedzone laces.
- I wouldn't buy these boots due to the lack of upper and lower zone lacing.

Ashley T.'s Review
- Wow, these boots are really, really narrow.
- Toes aren't touching the end due to the tight instep.
- Heel hold isn't great as I can't completely get my heel into the back of the boot.
- These boots are too narrow for me to consider buying.

Ashley F.'s Review
- Can tough the front of the boot with my toes if I reach for it.
- Boot is very snug, but supportive.
- Speedzone lacing takes a bit to figure out, especially loosening it to get it on.
- I would purchase this boot.

Ashley T.'s Review
- Toes aren't touching.
- Narrow toebox.
- Heel hold isn't great, instep in uncomfortable. My foot feel asleep after having it on for 5 minutes.
- Wouldn't buy these boots, they're not very comfy.

Ashley F.'s Review
- The fit is really inconsitant.
- Toes aren't touching the end, width is snug.
- Don't like the traditional lace on these boots, they should have boa.
- Wouldn't buy these boots because of the sloppy fit.

- Lacing is a bit complex.
- Toes are just touching the front of the boot.
- Instep, heel hold and toebox fit great.
- I would purchase this boot, but the lacing would take some getting used too.
|
Ashley F.'s Review
- Lacing system is cool.
- A bit hard to get on, but not bad after I learned how to use the laces.
- Overall fit is good, a little bit of play in the heel.
- I would buy these, but might consider a 1/2 size down.

Ashley T.'s Review
- Toes are just touching the front, heel is a bit loose.
- Instep and toebox are great, just right.
- Boa system is great, easy to use.
- I wouldn't buy these as they don't feel supportive enough in the arch, but could be better with custom insoles.
|
Ashley F.'s Review
- Toes are just touching the front of the boot.
- Overall the fit is great in the instep and toebox, but there is a lot of play in the heel.
- They were a little difficult to get on, but the boa system is great.
- If I could get rid of the play in the heel area, I would consider buying these boots.

Ashley T.'s Review
- Toes aren't touching the front of the boot, would probably have to size down.
- Toebox is a bit wide, but the instep is causing a pressure point.
- Not getting the heel hold that I have in other boots.
- With the pressure point and the so-so heel hold I wouldn't buy these boots.
|
Ashley F.'s Review
- My toes are just touching the front of the boot.
- The width is great and overall fit is good in all areas except the heel.
- Heel is pretty loose, but it does come with J-bars that should fix that problem.
- I would prefer for the heel to fit snug instead of having to use inserts, so I wouldn't purchase this boot.

Ashley T.'s Review
- The toebox, heel and instep are great on this boot.
- The arch area really isn't that supportive.
- Getting some pressure points where the tongue and liner meet.
- Overall the pressure points and lack of arch support would keep me from buying these.
|
Ashley F.'s Review
- These boots were pretty hard to get on.
- Zonal boa lacing is cool.
- Heel area is a bit sloppy, boot seems a little wide.
- I would consider these boots in a smaller size.
