Can anyone that owns a pair of these boots give a bit of info on durability, carvability and anythong else that might be helpful? And i've searchbarred, checked reviews etc and found nothing that helpful so don't get worked up hahaha. looking at the il moro (NOT FULLTILT) because i've got really narrow feet/ankles and they seem like they'd be perfect for me feet and riding. cheers and ++karma for helpful answers

Yes, that's your number one resource.  However, I do have them and they are the best boots I've ever owned, by far.  If you can afford them or get an end of season discount, get 'em. 

The three buckle system just makes sense - its really all you need and the middle one really keeps you heel clamped down in a way that a salomon 2 buckle won't.  Also, the top one uses a snowboard style ratchet that is really precise and takes the place of the upper 2 bucks and the power strap.  It has a wide pressure spot so it is easy on the shins.  And for carrying, there is a gold chain that you can carry them with.  Parts of the shell are very customizable, with a choice of tongue flexes, and adjustable calf raisers on the back. 

Most notable is the ID liner, which is a mold fit, so if the shell isn't quite your size, the liner makes up for it.  Very comfy with a wrap around cut that you sometimes see on tele boots. 

Plus, they look sick with a blingy pimpin' look this year and a rasta on enext year.  And can take you everywhere from park to BC.  They're a great alternative to FT's with not quite so narrow a footbed.
