The heart of Lange's all-new XT3, ACTIVE POWER V-LOCK is our patented new multi-performance freetouring technology. Designed to get you up with ease, but powered for the down, ACTIVE POWER V-LOCK delivers an 11° increase in forward ROM in HIKE mode, making long skin strides and hikes more efficient and less fatiguing. But lock it down for the descent with a SKI mode that offers the rock-solid connection of a traditional ski boot and you'll instantly feel the power, precision, and control you've been looking for when it's all about the down.

Mounted GRIPWALK® soles feature a thick rubber tread and convex toe profile, offering increased traction and more natural foot roll for enhanced hiking and walking comfort. Integrated stiff pads guarantee optimized power transmission and full Alpine release function. Alpine DIN soles also available, sold separately.

Lange’s new ultra-lightweight PERFORMANCE TOURING BOOT BOARD utilizes pressurized polypropylene to deliver a new level of hiking performance and warmth. The TOURING boot board is specifically designed with an internal forefoot rocker to allow for more natural foot motion during walking and skinning. A superior insulator with exceptional shock absorption properties, the new touring platform delivers amplified touch and snow feel while keeping your toes toasty warm so you can perform at your best on all tours.
