Looking for a lighter weight boot with more flex than Kenetrek mountain extreme.
My mountain extremes fit my foot near perfect but I am looking for a lighter weight boot with more flex. I have tried Crispi Thor in a few size configurations and couldn’t make it work. Crispi summits fit but had heel slip. I have a pair of la Sportivas that were not built for my Altra loving American feet.
Any boots with a similar fit to kenetreks?
 
I have a a pair Kenetrek ME and a pair of Lowa Rangers and I like both. Perhaps the Lowa Tibet if you're looking for something comparable to the ME?
 
I went from crispi Thor’s to the Kenetrek bridger high. Night and day difference, love the Kenetrek. Won’t ever buy a pair of crispi’s again. Might try a hiker from Kenetrek or lowa
 
Have you tried the Lapponia III?
That is actually the boots I ended up with. I was concerned to try Crispi's again after a never being able to get Thors to fit (standard was too narrow and EE's were to wide) and a pair of Summits that would cripple me with heel slip. I tried on a pair of the Lapponia lll and they fit great. I used them all fall and they are just what I was looking for. The Kenetreks are great if I am going to be hiking steep stuff but for 80% of what I am doing the Lapponias are perfect. I did try on a pair of the Altitudes and those might be my next boot once the Lapponias are done.
