Hi Mike,
I am riding my old Malamutes for over five seasons as well. These are
the black fiber ones with red details/highlights.
I had to pick up some new Malamutes for my son at Nationals as his
Malamutes fatigued and packed out causing arch support pain during the
competition. These are/where the black leather like ones, and where a
little over two (2) seasons old.
I was warned away from Thirty-Two's from fellow competitor. He stated
that while they where stiff and light, he had two pairs in for repair.
I am going to look for some New/Old stock Malamutes.

I've had the Van Contra, which is BOA for 4 years now. I ride about
12-15 days a season and they are still in excellent shape, original
cables, etc. Extremely happy with them.
