Pros Energetic, responsive, true to flex, cork liner, best out of box fitVery comfortable, integrated heating, adjustable flex, decent performanceComfortable, warm, responsive, adjustable forward leanLightweight, snug, powerful, includes Adaptive Cuff SystemCustomizable fit, loves carving, warm
Cons Bulkier than others, slightly wider fit than competitionUnreliable Bluetooth heating, softest flex in categoryOverrated flex value, not sturdy enough for heavier skiersHigh cuff height, loosened up after testingWimpy power strap, too rigid in some conditions
Bottom Line An all-around snappy and responsive boot that delivers all-day, all-mountain downhill performance without compromising comfortThe softest-flexing boot in our lineup that suits a wide range of skier abilities while keeping your toes toasty warmA race-inspired design in a comfortable and easy to ski boot, this is the perfect all-rounder boot suited for a wide range of skill levelsAn all-around solid freeride boot with a thoughtful construction that scored well on the snow but didn’t wow us in any particular categoryOne of the burliest boots tested, the Mach1 is a rigid boot that loves high speeds and demands an aggressive skier to steer the ship
