The highest level of skiers demand a lot out of their gear. From skinning, to bootpacks, to charging downhill, you want to make sure your boots can handle it all. The Lange XT3 Free 115 LV GW is a standout boot for expert level women skiers who need that power and durability. As stated by Lange, the XT3 Free 115 LV MV is “engineered to go up, built to ski down” and these boots truly live up to the hype. Compatible with both modern alpine bindings and tech toe bindings, the XT3 Free 115 LV GW has Dynafit certified tech inserts and GripWalk soles. A Friction Free Hinge boasts 53 degrees of motion when hiking, and the internal walk mode is easy to use and has metal on metal connections to increase durability. Skiers will be impressed by how efficient the boot is on the uphill. Even though it hikes well, the XT3 Free 115 LV GW is still a Lange boot. This means excellent performance on the downhill. A 97 millimeter last is snug and precise, and ensures no foot movement even for folks with narrow feet. The polyurethane shell uses Lange’s Dual Core injection method that was developed for their race boots. The difference here is the lighter and stiffer plastic the XT3 Free 115 LV GW uses compared to the heavier stuff in downhill boots. If you’re an expert level skier looking for a boot that can do it all, don’t sleep on the Lange XT3 115 LV GW.
