Our women's test team is a diverse bunch, but they do share one common trait—they are critical when it comes to boots. They don't let anything slide, and if it ain't right, we read about it on their test forms. So when a boot gets unanimously glowing score sheets and nothing but positive comments—like you find with the XT 110 W LV—you know you have a winner.

Instant edge response, a firm but comfortable grip along the shin and a consistently snug fit throughout the lower boot were a few of the plusses that propelled the narrow-last XT forward with a higher percentage of Best-of-Category and Best-of-Test votes than any other boot in this group.

While the XT 110 W LV is not new per se, certain key elements are revised this year to update the fit and on-snow performance and these updates garnered much acclaim. The liner is completely redone to better match the firm fit and feel of the RX series liners for better energy transmission and foot hold, but a Thinsulate laminate is also integrated for increased warmth retention. The upper cuff is stiffened slightly, and the Power V-Lock releasable connection between upper and lower is re-beefed for more solid engagement on the descent.
