Tried on the Lange RX 130 the other day and it felt nice. I've only had tecnicas. Anyone ever owned a pair of langes? What are they like?

What kinda question is that? Lange makes durable boots if that's what you're asking...

'What are they like?'
Well, that depends on if they fit nice. Get the boot that fits right and you're all set.

Well i was thinking about durability, yes. Like the integrity of the buckles. Quality of the liner. Overall impressions from people. My question is not "Hi NS! What kind of boot should I buy?" I'm just interested in some more feedback on a boot that felt great in the shop, but that I've never skied.

My experience: Almost everything feels good in the shop.

thanks

I currently have seths, but am grabbing a pair of sensor 130 rossignol boots for the season. Being that Lange and rossi boots are the same company, I find the flex to be perfect in the 130 offering. I am 190 6 ft and have no problem mashing them down and the 97 mm is by no means too narrow. I don't have a narrow foot by any means either. Id say go with them, even if they cost you a pretty penny, pretty sure you won't regret getting a boot like that, granted that is if you need it...

I received my lange rx 130 lv (pro) last week. The liner is amazing. You have a very good strap too. The sole is very grippy too. I didnt ski in them , but i wear them around in my house and they felt really nice. I read some review and every liked them. The guy at the shop was skiing them and he said they are the best boot he tried

congratulations. you're about to buy arguably the nicest boots on the market. i rocked langes for years, tried out full tilts last year, and while they skied well, nothing compares to how a lange boot skis. they may not have anything that sets them above and beyond for park riding, but for all mountain freeriding, i've never been in a more solid feeling, responsive, and comfortable boot. if they feel nice and comfortably snug in the shop, go for it, they're awesome.

Got fitted for some RX 120's. Honestly, They are the best fitting boot I have ever tried on. Cannot wait to rock them this year.

Well I cannot comment on the fit because that is unique to every individual foot, but I can tell you the shell is well made with high quality plastic that doesn' t respond dramtically to the temperature outside. The stock liner is pretty damn good, but they have a normal life span. I am on my second set of liners and the shell is still feeling good. If they fit you well you will be happy.

I've had mine for over 5 years now, still love them. Only issue I have is that they are heavy, which makes them a pain if you ever want to take them in the park. But as for the rest of the mountain they are amazing.
