I wore a pair of Crispi Thors every day for almost two years for work and outdoors.
I've got about 9 months on a pair of Crispi Summits now. Can't go wrong with either one.
I have a set of XOP sticks and thought the worked fine. I bought a set of Hunting Beast steps when the first came out, and never used the XOP's again. I really like the double step.
