Reviewer: Kalen from Moab, Utah
Overall:
Comfort:
Look:
Shoe Size: Felt true to size
Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked
Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support
In addition to this boot I tried on the Garmont Tower GT, and Scarpa Escape GTX. The MXT was the most comfortable for me, since it felt wider, and the slightly lower cuff was easier on my sensitive ankles. It was also the only one with a full leather (albeit suede) upper. Out of the box, but with custom orthotics, I backpacked 6 miles (day 1), kicked steps and cramponed up and down 2,000 feet of variable conditions snow and another 1,500 feet of talus (day 2), and hiked out (day 3). Comfortable and dry the whole way, no blisters, hot spots, or any other discomfort. Having a slightly lower profile, and more flex, than a full-on mountain boot made them more comfortable for hiking, but they were still plenty supportive on snow. My only gripes are that the tongue bellows are a little tight (for getting the boot on) and don't go all the way to the top, and I would prefer hooks rather than holes for the top two lace attachments, since I have to unthread them to get the boots on and off. Overall I am very happy with these - comfortable, light, rugged, versatile.
