Pretty unimpressed with these boots--the construction isn't up to the same quality as Scarpa, and once the insulation packs out a little experienced heel lift, which is horrendous for front pointing. The lacing system requires too much force to tighten--I have gotten blisters from trying to do up the laces (and it's not because I have soft hands--I've never experienced anything like it before).

On the positive side, the ankle flex makes them comfortable to walk in.

I certainly wouldn't buy them again though. If only Scarpas fit my feet...
