Yep - just noticed that on my pair right around the toes. Seemed to have come out of nowhere. Obviously it's just cosmetic, but I'd be curious to find out why it's happening.

Yep mine too.
Yep. I thought it might be leaching from my Intuition liners, but maybe not.
Same here on mine
I think we can mark it down as a design feature then?
Has anyone tried to modify what color the discoloration is?
Hypercolor boots are the coolest.
Covering one side with unicorn stickers and the other with skulls made me feel fasterQuote:

My Vulcans are also covered with mad love stickers and hug a Haggis slogansQuote:

Light and easy going on the up whether with skins or crampons. The down feels really solid. Now, i am just worried about dropping the tongues.... In due course, i'll ski them on bigger boards in more conditions.
They way i tell they are good is that you don't feel them misbehaving like most AT boots. Not sure why i am not bitching about the 18 degree forward lean, but i guess better performance and fit dominates....
Here is a vid on the second line.
Oh please don't let that stop you.Quote:

I guess you have the cleanest snow. I've got it too.
My Mercurys are also discolouring a bit.
guess my boots aren't special after all, at this rate in a year or so ill be rocking some pretty nice splotchy yellowy brown boots
did it happen only with runs of certain sizes, mine are 24's
mine are 26s, has it happened to anyones tlt5s? would assume its the same plastic.
Interesting. I have some TLT5Ps that are 1 year old, no issues so far. Sounds like an issue with a particular lot and one that warrants warrantee replacement. I would think DynaFit wouldn't want people skiing on horribly discolored boots, it's kind of bad press.
Nope not really.Quote:

No. Forward lean is perfect.Quote:

Everything is perfect.
If "lack of forward lean" is an issue for anyone, try a softer boot! I think the flex pattern and stiffness on the Vulcan is right on the money. The more I ski it, the more I find the sweet spot!
