they aren't in the same class, in my mind. The G10 MX is lighter with better construction, but also costs more. In general, you get what you pay for. Smith Holt = $80. G10 MX = $119.
I just switched from a giro nine.9 to a smith holt, the holt fits great, as did my giro, so no difference in that department. I haven't worn my holt skiing yet, but the quality on it looks great, no worse then Giro's. The extra cost in the giro's is in manufacturing costs because the mold is probably much more expensive to produce.
I got a G10MX and love it. It's so lightweight, and is very functional. But, now I am looking into a Holt, and they are cheap so I am probably gonna get one. They are dope looking IMO.
