Can anyone tell me about the MSR System X boot? It looks close to an Alpinestars Tech 6. I can get a set less than a Tech 6, and am interested in any experiences.
I've owned two pairs of System X boots and I really like them. They are actually made by Alpinestar, with A-Star buckles, and soles. I think they are very comfortable, but not as comfortable as some other boots I've tried on, but I can still wear the MSR boots all day without any discomfort. I actually wore them around the house for around 6 hours to break them in. They are very durable, and the soles are replacebale. I will probably buy another pair, when this pair wears out.
the system x is actually a re-badged tech 5. i liked the tech 5, but not the 6, 8 or 9 or whatever. so my friendly local dealer suggested the x, which actually was cheaper than the tech 5 with the a-star badge on it. i really like them (just like the tech 5); i'm on my 2d pair.
i wore a pair of system 6 boots for 5 yrs. msr called thier stuff sytem 6 before system x. they still looked good but the annkle support was shot.
just picked up a pair of system x from bobs for $140 . that is cheap for a boot of this quality.
