Key Features
Hoji Lock Walk Mode — A single rear lever separates the cuff and shell for touring, unlocking 60° of resistance-free cuff rotation, then re-engages the same cable system to pretension the boot back into a locked, 11°-forward-lean ski mode. No re-buckling required at the transition, which matters when you're losing daylight on a long tour.
Full Grilamid Construction — Shell, cuff, and spoiler are all Grilamid rather than polyurethane, which is how the boot holds a stiff 120 flex at roughly 1,400g per boot. Grilamid also handles cold better than PU — it won't stiffen up the way a resort boot does at -20°C on a Rockies approach, though it does ski a touch more reactive, or "pingy," than a heavier PU shell.
Roomy 103.5mm Last — Wide enough that most higher-volume feet won't need custom punchwork out of the box, which is a real advantage for anyone spending 6+ hours a day in the boot on tour.
