Cant quite drop the big bucks on these new boots but found a virtually new pair. They definately seem heavier but I was interested in the overall performance... touring and downhill. THanks Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had any feed back on last years Aeros… Cant quite drop the big bucks on these new boots but found a virtually new pair. They definately seem heavier but I was interested in the overall performance… touring and downhill.

THanks

"TF" indicates thermo form liner, and "MF" indicates multi form non-thermo liner that's said to be lasted to fit most feet. In our view, boot companies should just sell shells and liner options, but that would be a paradigm shift in how boots are retailed, so that's probably a pipe dream. Our take: Thermo liners are usually warmer, lighter, and fit better.

I can't find it on Dynafit's site and have never explored their boots before. thanks. Can someone please tell me the difference between the TF and MF models?

If really true, how much of a difference are we talking about - 10%, 50% ? Also, how, in general, does that change in stiffness affect the fit - if at all? The last thing I want is a boot (I am considering the Zzero 4 U-TF) that fits well in the shop but then feels different on snow. I am a bit weary of this since this is something I wouldn't be able to know until after I already shelled out hard-earned money for the boot. Finally, any general insight into the durability of a polyurethane boot versus a pebax boot would be nice to hear. Thanks a lot, Chris Lou,

They are selling sensational in Austria and the Customer Comments are outstanding. Thanks to Dynafit for these sensational Touring Boots. They are quite better than all Dynafit Boots before.
