Great boots!   02-05-07
e. krenz (3): rating
I've had these boots for a couple weeks and have put over 50 miles on them. They broke in easily, they provide great ankle support, and they are very warm. I was out for 3 hours yesterday in -20 and my feet were toasty. They go great with my Rossignol BC-90s. I really couldn't pick out anything to complain about. Buy these boots - you won't regret it!

Comfortable and fun   12-18-06

Great boot for XCountry touring. A comfortable boot straight out of the box- but also has great support and control for focusing about technique. Medium/wide width and roomy toebox. I toured 10 miles before getting my first heel blister (which is really saying something for a new boot...)

Very warm and tough but hard to dry-out   03-15-07
Erik the Viking (1): rating
I tried the boots in minus 30 deg. Celsius conditions last week here in the chic-chocs (Appalachian Moutains-north-east-on Quebec side) and they gave me no trouble with warmeness at all even with a thin layer pair of socks. Great boots. Alpina is trustable. But at the time to dry them-out back at the chalet, I found them tricky to dry because of the insulation inside at the top end of the boots. Apart from that... so far so good.

Why return Alpina BC 1550 boots?   03-06-08
etorrey2039333 (3): rating
Because they were the wrong size, but boy are they good boots. After sales worked the exchange with limited time before skiing, I am soo glad! I spent hours on skis in New Hampshire with temps at 19-25 degrees with no cold feet, no pinch points, no unexpected releases. Clean boots, no crap in the mud room! Would recommend the extra bucks for great boots.

Good Boot   10-29-08
Anonymous: rating
The first thing you notice when you get the boots is that the appears to be made from a synthetic, stiff, felt-like material. The boot fits average D width. So if your a 2E width like me, order a 1/2 size larger to get the extra width. The footbed is fairly cushiony and the outer sole is actually pretty good for walking around. The lace up has plenty of options for lacing higher or lower, tighter or looser. You should be able to find some situation that is comfortable. The upper cuff with velcro closing actually does work n terms of making the boot stiffer. The boot is not as stiff as a true tele boot, but stiffer than a Nordic walking or skating boot - so it's a good compromise. All in all it's a good boot. It should give the beginner or intermediate the confidence they need to ski well.
