nice adder to nice boot

Rating:*****

AT sole went on quickly and easily. Great for walking around Chamonix! Had to set the forward pressure on my Dukes a couple clicks tighter than with the Din sole to prevent forward release for some odd reason, but likely my poor initial adjustment.
Thumbs up, and am looking forward to getting some dynafit binders for lighter touring.

Good Sole that smells like my barn.

Rating:****

Really, it smells like a hay barn. Still does after use! I'd say they are much more durable than the Alpine blocks. That 'rubber' just wears right off. I have contacted them about making a vibram sole. I don't have a clue why they didn't do that...
