Downhill Ski Boots for Every Skier

Downhill ski boots are crafted to keep you firmly attached to your skis, allowing you to confidently maintain control whilst gliding down the slopes. The extensive range of ski boots is categorised into men’s and women’s ski boots, alongside children’s ski boots. Within these categories, you can filter by “type”, which are briefly outlined below -

All-Mountain Ski Boots

These ski boots are exceptionally versatile, making them suitable for all kinds of conditions on the mountain.

Piste Ski Boots

These are designed to offer you optimal control on-piste and can manage high speeds.

Park Ski Boots

With their responsive and playful nature, these ski boots provide a smooth riding experience on a variety of features found in the snowpark.

Freeride Ski Boots

These are a lighter version of all-mountain ski boots, capable of handling high-speed descents and fresh powder.

Touring Ski Boots

Comfortable and extremely lightweight, these boots come equipped with pin/tech inserts for ascending hills.

Race Ski Boots

These are stiff, responsive boots that react to even the smallest foot movements.

Ensuring the Perfect Fit for Ski Boots

Ski boots should fit snugly around your feet and ankles, providing a secure hold without causing discomfort or restricting blood flow. Though this may seem challenging, ski boot manufacturers are simplifying this process by supplying precise size measurements for the length and width of the boots’ interiors.

The sizing for ski boots is based on mondopoint, which is the length from toe to heel, expressed in centimetres. Begin by measuring the length of your feet, and select boots close to this measurement. In the specifications for each pair, you’ll also find the forefoot width measurement. Using the same method, choose boots where the width aligns with your foot’s width.

Understanding Flex in Ski Boots

The flex number of a ski boot indicates the flexibility of its outer shell. It ranges from 40 to 130, with lower numbers representing softer flexing boots and higher numbers indicating stiffer ones.
