The Gist
The Hawx Magna 90 W is ideal for women with wide feet and bigger calves looking for a comfortable off-the-shelf fit and solid all-mountain performance. It doesn't hurt that it practically puts itself on the foot.
Fit
The Hawx Magna has huge volume throughout the lower shell, testers said, but with enough anatomic shape to follow the foot's curves and hold the heel and ankle for skiing movements. The cuff is upright and open, ideal for big calves. The entire shell can be Memory Fit heat molded if there is a need for more room. Testers said it would take a massive foot to require more room.
Performance
Strong snow management skills considering its cushiness and massive volume, testers said. Great lateral balance and an even flex feel made turn initiation automatic and helped maintain a smooth and stable ride regardless of speed or turn shape.
Cool Features
As with other Hawx models, the Power Shift feature can alter forward lean angle (three positions) as well as tweak flex.
