Just like the headbanging members of Pantera, the band, the Panterra 130 ID boot is way into heavy metal. With a stiff 130 flex rating, 40 mm powerstrap and polyolefin plastic build, these bad boys are well-prepared to rip around the resort with the ferocity of the “Cowboys from Hell.” Dalbello’s Contour 4 technology—anatomically correct mapping of the shell to the typical skier’s foot—provides an excellent out-of-the-box fit, while the option to mold both the liner and shell ensures even more precise foot wrapping. To round it out, the boot’s Alpine soles can be swapped with a set of GripWalk ones, which combined with the boot’s integrated hike mode allows for easy movement should you choose to “Walk” from the lifts to the closest heavy metal joint for some après thrashing.
