Overview
The Antik AR-1 Phantom Boot is an all black update to the popular AR-1. New are the patent leather backstay, tongue, and A-logo and in addition to the facelift, the tongue was also modernized to be more comfortable and better resist rotation during skating. The rest of the boot carries the same design elements and materials as the second generation - full grain leather in Antik's signature tall cut offer both comfort and support from the outside while the Harmony microfiber lining works from the inside. Full length lacing with a recessed eyelet offers countless customization options to get the perfect fit.
'Seconds' are boots with a small cosmetic blemish such as a crooked stitch or smeared logo. The warranty is voided on seconds, but structure and performance are exactly as you'd get from any AR1.

Previous Feedback
Comments: Very comfortable and no painful break-in. Negative- super heavy (almost a pound in just the boot) and restricting. I ended up not using the top 2 eyelets which helped.
