Atomic Hawx Prime XTD 120 BOA

The Hawx Prime XTD 120 BOA is a men's hybrid boot for skiers who split their time between the lifts and the skin track. It sits on Atomic's 100 mm medium-volume last, and a BOA H+i1 dial wraps the lower shell for an even hold that you can tighten or back off a click at a time, even with gloves on.

The Free/Lock 4.5 walk mode opens up 54° of cuff travel for the climb, then locks at 13°, 15° or 17° forward lean for the descent. Investment-cast tech inserts work with Hybrid and TLT-style pin bindings, and Complete Tech GripWalk pads (ISO 23223) give real grip on rock and ice. The Prolite shell and cuff and the Mimic Platinum liner are heat-mouldable through Atomic's Memory Fit process, so a fitter can tune pressure points. Atomic lists 2004 g per boot at size 26/26.5.
