Hawx Ultra Xtd 120 Alpine Touring Boot

The Atomic Men's Hawx Ultra Xtd 120 Alpine Touring Boot unlocks the door to effortless ascents, hard, technical descents, and the versatility to ride the line between all-mountain skiing and freeride touring without missing a beat. Its stiff 120 flex is slightly more forgiving than its burlier sibling, the Hawx Ultra XTD 130, thanks to the addition of a polyurethane cuff, and the strong but lightweight Grilamid shell maintains a consistent flex that doesn't vary in different temperatures. A reinforced spine keeps the boot stiff for better power transfer to your fat powder skis, which also allowed Atomic to remove unnecessary material that would otherwise weigh the boot down.

You have to go up to come down—as all dedicated backcountry skiers know—and the lightweight nature of the Hawx Ultra Xtd, combined with a generous 54-degree range of motion in walk mode make long climbs feel like a breeze. Both the shell and the liner can be easily customized to give you performance and comfort, and the forward lean is adjustable between 15 or 17 degrees to cater to your balance. Complete with rugged rubber soles for dependable traction on icy bootpacks, the Hawx Ultra Xtd has all the tools you need to quickly and effectively climb to claim big, burly, untouched lines.
