Got 'em two years ago 'cause I have twisted my ankles too many times and wanted some good support
I really liked them but I just bought some Klim Adrenalines this year.
Pros of the Pivots:
-WARM feet, no leakage whatsoever (did get some water over the top once in a creek)
-Excellent ankle support
-Quick entry and lace up (always ready quicker than my riding buddies)
-Removable Liner
Cons:
-No laces in front to snap my gaiters onto
-Wide boot (I wear a 14) and barely fit into my M1000 footwell and won't fit my Apex footwell
-One boot had most of the plastic that that boa goes through break off.
I did get a ton of riding in last year, but I wouldn't have expected the boa lacing to break.
Overall, I would do them again if they would fit into my footwell because I really liked the ankle support and how quickly they go on/off.
