| I've been using these boots for 2 seasons now (70+ days), and feel they are a solid choice for a non-dynafit boot. many speak of fit problems, and i may be an exception, as my feet are flat, narrow, and pronated. All that aside, I also had initial fit problems, which were mostly fixed by having the liners cooked. The one lingering issue i had was pressure on the 6th toe area. I installed a 1/8" thich foam insert "under" the liner, and went to a heavy ski sock, and used slightly less buckle pressure. The thicker sock goes against normal thinking, but it worked. Now i can stay in these boots for 12 hours of touring and descents with no pain.
As for the skiability of the boot. I think they rival a good alpine boot. I have the forward lean all the way forward, and can charge the most challenging lines on the mountain. They drive my mid-fats nicely, and touring is also comfy. As with all things they do wear, and i have found the most suseptible place is the plastic around the canting excentric. Solution: remove the excentric when the boots are new, and lubricate it liberally with a good silicone grease, and repeat this 2 times a year. For me it was a little too late. This hinge point gets the most wear on the boot. I will do this with all AT boots in the future. |

| I molded the liner, and I even had the boot blown out by Doc's Ski Haus; however, it is still too narrow. After a full day hiking, skinning, and skiing in them I get a silver dollar size blister in my arch, and a bruise on the outside of my foot opposite the arch. That being said, if I could just get the darn things to fit, I'd love them. They ski great downhill (I can't tell a difference between them and an alpine boot), and the walk mode works great for hiking/skinning. The extremely aggressive lugs on the bottom are nice for traction as well. After a 2 day trip up Shasta, my feet stayed warm and dry (and blistered). I'm giving them 4 stars, although I may change it to 5 if I can ever fix the fit somehow . . .

| great ski performance while still comfortable for walking/climbing. Most recently I have spent 16 hours in them straight. They are definitely wider than Garmont however still narrow around my ankles - thus they needed some boot fitting that helped but my let ankle still gets a little bruised. The Intuition liners are great, I had lace ups before and the Intuitions are warmer and easier to deal with.
I used Superfeet to fill up the volume, the toe box still has a bit more volume upwards (not sideways) but on the other hand a little bit of room keeps my toes warm.
Sizewise, my US street is 10, Salomon X-Waves Mondo 27 and the Scarpas are Mondo 27.5 (and the Scarpas seem to fit better than the Salomons!!).

| had these boots for 2 months or so and they are a terrible fit. Way too narrow in the middle. It looks like there are other reviews with the same problem. I had them fit, tried inserting custome footbeds nothing worked, the blisters on the sides of my feet were the worst I have even seen and in fact ended one of my tours from just the ski up/approach.
other than the poor fit, they did ski great (if you could take the blister pain) they were a pretty responsive boot skiing.
I sold mine after that final trip. worthless becasue of the poor fit design. |

| I've had these for about two years and have gone up Denali in them a year and a half ago, have probably 15 days in them, but they still don't fit well. I get massive blisters on the sides as well as on the sides of the heels. I've tried molding three times, got "Superfeet" to get my arches correct and still too narrow in the middle. Its painful on top of blisters... it bruises my feet. Other than that, they flex well in walking mode, great support but just too painful to enjoy. Maybe its just my foot shape... The rivets from the shell seem to be in perfect position to dig into my bone. If there is a solution to fix it, I'd keep 'em but can't figure out how. |
