Dynafit Hoji Free Alpine Touring Ski Boot reviews and deals for sale

Believe the hype

Past boots in recent years include: Lange Freeride Pro, Dalbello Lupo 130c, Fischer Ranger 13. I grew up racing and competing moguls in New Hampshire, but have lived in WY and CO skiing 80%+ backcountry since 2004. I love pillows, technical airs, deep pow, and aesthetic couloirs. I still bang out a few resort laps in here and there too, so it's worth having a tongue for standard… read more alpine binders. The video posted with this review just shows off my style, not this boot. The Hoji Pro is by far the best boot I've ever had. Somehow it's both the stiffest and lightest I've experienced. The walk mode is pure magic. I was warned of a backseat stance (usually fixable with shims/spoilers) and a short cuff concerned me. Neither of these are any issue for me. I feel solid and nimble even skiing resort hardpack. Pure stoke for this boot!

The Holy Grail of boots!!!

Still can't believe this boot exists. Throughout my life as an avid backcountry skier I've dreamt of a single pair of boots that I could grab off the shelf and throw in the car no matter the occasion whether it be a long arduous skin into the hills during a multi night expedition, a long boot pack in the spring to ski the last lines of the season, riding a sled in to build a booter… read more in one of my favorite spots or simply heading to the local mountain for a chill day at the resort. The problem being that my dreams were just that, dreams. Finally my prayers were answered with the hoji free. This boot is such a solid performer in every category!!! I've tried what seems like an infinite amount of boots looking for "the one" but always ended up needing a quiver of activity specific boots that lacked in things they weren't necessarily designed for. This boot is miles above anything I've ever skied in every aspect. The hoji free hikes like a dream, tours like a boss and skis like an absolute beast both on and off piste. Bravo dynafit BRAVO!!!👏 **Disclosure- I'm just a dirt bag ski bum and do not work for Dynafit or any of their associated brands.. This is a completely unbiased and honest opinion**

One boot for everything??? I think so.

I had the privilege of skiing this boot for the last half of last season and was really impressed with the downhill performance and great "walkability." The 55 degrees of cuff rotation is as advertised and really easy to utilize with the "Hoji-Lock" lever on the spine of the boot. The fact that the lever also loosens the cuff buckle and power strap is an added bonus and makes transitions… read more a breeze! On the downhill, the boots hold their own against true alpine boots and I had no problem skiing them hard at the resort as well as out touring. It really is the one boot to do everything in. Despite having a quiver of boots at my disposal, I have found the Hoji Free to be my go-to for both resort and BC days. **Disclosure - I work as a rep for Dynafit**

You gotta get up, to get down.

Very, very, very impressed and stoked on these boots. The Hoji Pro changed the way I thought about walk modes and ski performance - they absolutely crush on the way down, but they go above and beyond on the skin track. The only thing missing was the toe welt. I have Shift bindings on my hybrid (inbounds/backcountry) set up, and could never use the Hoji Pro because of the… read more lack of welt. Enter the Hoji Free. Works with the binders, also takes an automatic crampon for those more technical missions. We live in a wonderful time of backcountry ski equipment. You can most definitely have your cake, and eat it too.

What kind of toe box does this have? Narrow feet? Wide toe box? Oh so just right?
