Hello,

I had searched for posts on these boots, found some, but wanted to ask more.

How do these boots fit? I heard they are pretty wide, which is good since my feet are wide.

I am wanting to use them with my K2 Fujatives and Salomon STH 12s. Are these good all mountain boots?

I read some mixed reviews, just trying to find a good boot that is all mountain and light.

Also, how do these compare to this boot?

Thank You

a good boot is one that fits you  this boot is wide and soft.  IF that is what you need it should be good,

can you try it on (and ideally with a good boot fitter) and see how it fits you?  also lots of other options similar to this that you can try on at the same time.

Yea, that is the problem, I can't try them on :\

All the ski shows around me (Arizona) do not have these boots in stock. When you say soft, what exactly do you mean?

Thank You

soft = easy to flex = good for light weight, less aggressive skiers.

please,   dont by boots with out trying them on first,    it is a HUGE gamble, and usually a waste of money

Awesome, thank you for the replies. I have heard these boots are soft. So that most likely means they aren't good for trail riding, correct? Because they might flex too much when trying to carve?

Thank you

Soft is not much to do with carving, or anything else
