The four-buckle fastening guarantees a precise fit and power transmission from boot to ski. They force considerable knee flex, making them suitable for advanced skiers who want to ski sportily. The fourth buckle usually has a sealing function. Fastening should start with the second buckle, then fasten the first and move on to the lower buckles.

Comfort during hours of skiing on the slopes is key to enjoying your sport. Well-fitting boots guarantee a good fit to the foot without causing unwanted pressure, optimal warmth and the elimination of foot fatigue.

The Alpine sole is the most traditional type of sole used in ski boots. It has a hard plastic plate placed under the toe and on the heel, which allows easy release from the bindings. They are compatible with most bindings available, but are not comfortable when walking without skis.

The ski/walk switch design allows the upper to be set into downhill mode or walking mode. This makes it easier to put the boot on, but most importantly it allows you to walk comfortably, as the upper then has a much greater range of movement.
