I loved those boots, my feet never got cold. Its been almost 4years and still warm and comfy even after 40ish days of skis each winter. They are starting to break with the usage especially on the bottom with all the walking around on concrete and everything, but they still handle it!!
Ratings:I enjoyed these boots for a few seasons now and I have to say they were a great buy. The nearly all black design is very clean and the boots are comfortable. one of the biggest pros of this boot is the durability. I've taken these boots through everything and after riding summer setups countless times and walking long distances on concrete, the boots are still fine. I would recommend this boot to anyone with a mid to narrow foot who is looking to ski the whole mountain.
Ratings:Bought these boots in the late winter early spring of 2012, so I have been on them for almost 2 full seasons.
As far as flex and performance, I would consider them quality performance boots, however not top notch. Being a 3 piece boot, they still flex better than any 2 piece boot I have worn, however they don't compare to the regular full tilt feel.
Considering fit, they are a relative wide boot with a medium arch (smaller arch than dalbellos). They are not the widest boot out there, but they have better performance than any other wide shell I could find. I have very strange, hobbit like feet, so with a little boot work I was able to get a performance boot to fit a very wide, quirky foot.
They have held up well and are still going strong so I would say the durability is good if not very good.
The liner however doesn't appear to have the same durability as the rest of the shell. In just two seasons the liner has packed out to where there is little to no padding between my heel and the shell. Presses, hard landings, etc result in pain and some mild bruising. I will have to confirm with my boot fitter that this is a correct assumption so take this liner review with a grain of salt.
Overall, the best performing wide boot I could find, with good durability and 3-peice flex.
