Good All-Mountain Boot

  • Gender: Male
  • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

I like this boot a whole lot. I have a pair of Flexons that are nice and light, but I like the stiffness and the added weight, and the replaceable rubber toe and heel, while maintaining the 3-piece concept of the old Flexon. The buckles are also really solid and lock my heel down well. The toe box height of the Ace of Spade is shorter than the Flexons, so popping in intuition liners instead of the stock liners- which are just fine, just heavier and not as warm- put some more pressure on the toes.
The Ace is a really good all mountain boot, without being too heavy and keeping the three piece design, plus having a lot of features that other similar boots don't have.
