They break down quicker than stitched linings. I'm in the market for new boots and I've had a few shops steer me away from boots like 32's/DC for the type of riding and amount of days that I go. I tried on both the 32 Team 2 and 305 and I though they were soo comfy, but the shop guys said I woudn't be happy w/them after a few weeks.. I like a med/stiff boot and ride all mountain from everyting to BC to park.

Rignt now I'm really eying the Salomon Dave Bendeks, F24s, Nitro and maybe another pair of Ions..Still have some time to find some new ones before the season starts. The Salomon DB's are at the top of my list right now and I love the lacing system and minus sizing.

I used to have sabbaths and then I got some DC's. Worst mistake ever. They were good for about 14 days, but after that they were just sketchy. I went back to my dirty old, broken down, hole filled sabbaths after day 50 ..... just couldn't handle it anymore. I am going to buy some new sabbaths again.

I hear good things from burton and salomon from people who ride as much as I do....or did. Sad 100+ days.

The thing with the 32's is that you can remold them. Just whenever you drop by your shop get them remolded. I go through a pair of boots a season riding 90+ days. However the liners are quality and as long as you stay on top of it they will do good by you.
