Ski mountaineering boots 🎿

Ski boots come in different types, each of which is adapted to specific ski disciplines and has specific features. Here is a brief description of the different types of ski boots:

Alpine ski boots:
- designed for downhill skiing on groomed slopes
- provide maximum support, stiffness, and control for precise cornering
- usually have a high cuff for excellent maximum stability
- have a flat, solid sole compatible with alpine bindings
Freeride ski boots:
- designed for skiing off-piste and in different terrain
- offer balanced stiffness and flexibility for manoeuvrability in demanding conditions
- often have a walking mode for easier uphill climbing during hikes or field trips
- can be compatible with both alpine and skialp bindings
Ski boots for skitouring/ski mountaineering:
- lightweight design makes climbing and walking easier
- equipped with a walking mode, they have an articulated joint for a more natural movement when walking
- compatible with technical (pin) bindings for uphill climbing and may have soles suitable for hiking

When choosing ski boots, it's essential to consider your skiing style, ability level and the type of terrain you plan to tackle.
