Black Diamond Swift Alpine Touring Boots - REVIEW
The Swift boots live up to their name. They're designed for freedom of movement and freedom is what you get when you're on the up track with these babies.
The boots fit snug straight out of the box. I had them custom moulded which gave me a little more toe space. I have narrow, low volume foot which is difficult to fit at the best of times. In my last pair of boots I had a lot of trouble locking my heel down because the heel design was based on a man's heel (even though it was a woman's boot). The heel fit is a lot snugger in the Swift liners, probably because the liner itself is articulated to a female fit. I love the boa closure system, it feels great to have the liners really hug your feet and it's tight enough that the liner tongue doesn't move around as it does with laces.
