I just tried on Klim Adrenaline and Motorfist Stomper boots yesterday. The tongue on the Stompers seems to be too narrow above my ankle. I tightened them up as much or even more than I like to, and I could still stick my finger between the boot and the tongue and touch my foot. No matter how I did the boot up, I could not get the boot to overlap the tongue enough to cover the hole just above the lace eyelets. I can't see how the snow would stay out of them. There was another guy trying on boots and he found the same problem.
Then I tried the Adrenalines on and everything felt good. The tongue is wider and boot overlaps it the way you would expect it too and seals up nicely.
I actually thought the Stompers were pretty light at first, but as soon as tried on the Adrenaline, I found it lighter. I had one of each on, and the Klim seemed lighter.
I've been wearing Adrenalines for the past 4 years and have been really happy with them. I bought the Adrenalines again.
For what it's worth though, I did buy Motorfist gloves. Very nice!

Have been wearing Klim for 3-4 yrs now.
LOVE THEM.
The guys i ride with are slowly switching over to them.
Up in the Snowies 3 yrs ago, in the cabin, after an epic day of 3-4 ft powder riding. Everyone was pouring out there boots, i still had dry socks.
Very comfortable, stay dry, and stay warm.

Switched from hmk boas to the MOTO FISTS have only wore them for cutting wood a couple days to make sure they are broke in for riding and ill tell you they were warm and comfortable. no foot sweat and you can drive in them easily. I wouldnt have tried to drive in the Hmks. headed to the Snowies this weekend to test em out on the sled.

I've been wearing the Klim Adrenalines for years now, I love em.
I have not heard about there being a gap behind the tongue on the stompers, good to know.The motorfist boot seems to be all the craze this year, still good to here people reviews.
For the guys that switched to motorfist boots, did you go up a size or stay the same as your street shoe size?
Yeah, there pretty true to size. I ordered some w/ that worry in mind and just went for it anyways.
The toebox area seems to be padded really well and insulated for all the cold toed ones.
It's a nice product, and I'm really fussy about my gear.
