With a slender fit and a highly versatile character, the Lange XT3 Free 115 W LV is a great choice for those who are searching for a blend of uphill efficiency and downhill performance.

Why we like it:

We like the fact that Lange has such a strong alpine background. This makes them highly reputable when building any boot, but especially one with touring capabilities.

Who it's for:

This boot is for advanced and expert ladies with narrow feet who are looking to get out of bounds and tour, but don’t want to give up resort capability.

Highlights:

The stiff flex and low volume fit of the XT3 115W from Lange makes this a definite high performer in the women’s hybrid boot category. Thanks to Lange’s Active Power V-Lock technology, these boots deliver a wide range of motion for comfort and efficiency going up, then lock down for power and precision during the descent. The 100% customizable Dual 3D liner enhances boot feel and power transmission, and the narrow, 97 mm last ensures a high-performance fit.

Things to consider:

As is the case with many do-it-all hybrid boots, the XT3 115W is neither the most powerful nor the lightest boot out there. If you’re a dedicated tourer or if you stick to the resort, there are better options out there for these specific uses.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Lange XT3 115W LV features a narrow, Low Volume (LV) fit designed for a precise and snug fit. The shell can be customized to accommodate various foot shapes and sizes.
