Anyone have the Lange XT 100 Low Volumes?

Because if so, can you tell me which liner they have? I'm getting some conflicting information on the website. The actual page for the boot it says the have the RL1, or low retention liner, but the thermofit liner page lists it as one of the boots that has the RL3, or high retention liner. I find the 130s are way stiffer than I need, and I'd prefer not to have to cut at them and soften them up, plus I honestly like the look of the 100s better. BUT, if they've got a that shitty liner, I'll have to sack up and go with the 130s.
Anybody have any clue?

The RX 100 LV is lower in the performance of the RX series, so not only does it have the softest flex, but the lowest level liner. So yes, it does have the level 1 liner. Not bad by any means, actually, a lot better than other brands at that flex and price, but still nonetheless not as good in what you would find in the rx 120 or 130.

have you seen the boot in person? not to doubt you, but this is exactly what i would have assumed had the website not given conflicting information

Different liner.
Get the 130's. the XT 130 is noticeably softer than the RX 130.

did you mean the other way around? the RX is the softest 120+ boot i've ever tried on, whereas i can't flex the XT much at all, even at room temp. figured the PU cuff + the clear plastic shell was what made the RX feel so soft, and the XT doesn't have either.

Having skied both, I am going to have to disagree with your assessment of the two boots.

Yeah the information is correct. It makes sense that the lower level liners are in a lower level boot, its that way across the board on boots. And if it makes you feel better I work in a shop and received this information directly from the Lange rep, and, yes, I've seen it in person.
