Grab the same pair of boots every time you switch between AT and alpine skiing with Black Diamond's race-boot stiff Factor Alpine Touring boot that gives you the maximum torsional rigidity and stiffness you need on the downhill with the all-mountain access you expect from a backcountry boot. Expect a perfect fit with thermomoldable Strobel liners and a BOA closure system that fits uniformly via a speed lacing system, then, hit the slopes back up by the sturdy triple-injected Triax Pro Frames that provide flex and stiffness where you need it.

    Comments about Black Diamond Factor AT Boot - Men's:

    I need a boot with a flex rating of at least 130, anything less collapses when I start driving them forward in a serious way; these boots deliver. They offer good versatility for both in bounds and alpine touring. They have great edge to edge quickness. The Boa boot liners are really good for dialing them in with a level of precision fit that I'm just not used to getting in an off-the-shelf boot liner; with their cable ratcheting system, very cool.

    Comments about Black Diamond Factor AT Boot - Men's:

    The boot fit good for two seasons, the lining delaminated from cushion inside boot liner. then the lining would wrinkle on the sides of heel pockets. I would rate the stiffness more like 90 to 100 not 130!

      Comments about Black Diamond Factor AT Boot - Men's:

      I have 17 days in these boots. Everything from deep powder, hard snow, race course work, avie work. They are the warmest boots I can ever remember using (and we have had -20 degree temps). These are burly boots. Plenty of stiffness. I could run gates with these boots, but in walk mode they are just like a light pair of hiking boots. BD did their homework on these. The Factors are a legitimate 130 flex.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
