Only for the downhill/ski mode—and only if the binding accepts ISO 5355 soles. For touring mode, you need boots with tech fittings (the metal sockets on the toe that accept the binding's pins). Standard alpine boots lack these fittings, so you cannot tour with them. Most hybrid binding users wear touring boots with tech fittings and GripWalk or ISO 9523 soles, which work in both modes.
