From Moosejaw:
"On Sale. Free Shipping. Koflach Degre Boot (Spring 2007) The Degre by Koflach uses a softer shell and lighter liner than other Koflachs. We designed the Degre as a cold weather hiker that outperforms the best leather alternatives. Compared to leather, the Degre boasts maintenance-free waterproofing, superior durability and lighter weight. The Degre's Y-Technology, delivers similar longitudinal flex to leather, but provides a torsionally stiffer lower for superior interface with step-in crampons. The price may surprise you too! Performance: Expedition: Not Ideal Vertical Ice: Very Good Hiking: Very Good Tech Features: Weight: 2,450g (U.S. size 9) Hinge: Vario Sole: Vibram Lacing: Steel Ball Shell: Y-Technology (dual density)"
From EMS:
"Designed for winter hiking, the Koflach Degre Plastic Boots are compatible with Randonee ski bindings and nearly every kind of crampon and snowshoe. With greater flex and rocker than the typical plastic boot, the Degre is well suited for general mountaineering. Rated to -30F.Rated to -30F. Dual-density polyurethane "Y" technology; soft plastic uppers retain their supple flex even in sub-zero temperatures, while the lowers utilizes a stiffer plastic to ensure a steady platform. Shank is less rigid than the Koflach Arctis Expe, but still stiff enough for technical terrain and use with rigid crampons. Slight flex that is built into the shell, combined with the sole's rocker, allows for greater walking comfort. A layer of synthetic cork is used in the shell's sole for additional insulation and shock absorbency; EVA heel plug further helps to dissipate shock. Special Vibram winter climbing configuration for improved performance in snow. Fully lace-removable inner boot made from both open- and closed-cell foam to maximize insulation while blocking out moisture; accommodates all foot volumes and shapes. Inner boot features thermo-formable heel and ankle padding (adapted from Atomic's alpine ski boots) and high-loft fleece to allow for a better performance fit, reduced heel lift, and increased comfort. Inner boot can be worn inside a tent or within a sleeping bag in expedition conditions."
From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Degre uses a softer shell and lighter liner than other Koflach boots. Koflach designed the Degre as a cold weather hiker that outperforms the best leather alternatives. Compared to leather, the Degre boasts maintenance-free waterproofing, superior durability and lighter weight. The Degre's Y-Technology, delivers similar longitudinal flex to leather, but provides a torsionally stiffer lower for superior interface with step-in crampons. OMC Shoe Buyer says: Truly unfortunate news. As of May, 2007, Atomic, the owner/importer of Koflach, will no longer be importing the Koflach mountaineering boots. Atomic will stock replacement liners for a few years, but no more plastic mountaineering boots!"
