Garmont Endorphin Alpine Touring Boot: Product Review
What the TelemarkSki staff thinks... What the manufacturer's Marketing Dept. thinks... What independent testers think...
For those who need the biggest, stiffest AT boot out there, look no further than the Endorphin. A notch above the Adrenalin, the Endorphin rivals the highest performance alpine boots made, yet thanks to its interchangeable sole and hinging cuff in walk mode, this boot performs on the ascent as well as the descent. Featuring the G-Fit 3 moldable liner, which adds a tougher outer material and a simple, effective lacing system to the anatomical design with a heavily padded cuff and tongue. Garmont's Endorphin is the world's most advanced boot for freeriders, ski mountaineers, and those who hike for their turns. It's as stiff and responsive as the best alpine boots, powerful to arc the biggest skis, and as mobile as the best ski mountaineering boots. The Endorphin has a responsive, supportive double-injected cuff. Its interchangeable soles include an ISO norm alpine sole and the Endorphin ski mountaineering sole. It has light, strong Magnesium buckles and canting mechanism.

Skiing magazine: '06 "Garmont's Adrenalin was the first to marry tourability with true alpine performance, and the new Endorphin goes still further. The ski-mountaineering sole is now more compatible with step-in bindings. The double-injected cuff provides a more precise fit and becomes progressively stiffer as it's flexed. It's heavy, but it's the best downhiller of all."
'07 "For the second year in a row, the Endorphin captures the title of ultimate big-mountain boot. Testers raved about its snug alpine fit and exceptional walk mode. And you can change the soles - lugged for backcountry, smooth for resort skiing."

Backcountry magazine: "Unchanged from last year, the Endorpin continues to be one of, if not the best performing AT boots on the market. I absolutely love the way these boots perform day in and day out in variable snow conditions. Personally, I think the Endorphin is a bit bulky for someone who is only using the boots to tour, but for those who don't mind sacrificing a little extra weight on the way up for excellent performance on the way down, these are perfect. The only thing I would change about these boots is the liner."
