Description
New developed BC boot for the Xplore™ System with increased comfort, stability and ski handling. ALFA's integrated ankle support system, AISS, improves the stability and control in demanding terrains. The Xplore™ binding system provides great stability in downhills and allows a natural skiing technique with a flex in the sole.
Winter insulated lining with GORE-TEX and thermal midsole keeps the feet warm and comfortable in all conditions. The upper material is treated to repel snow and dirt and the BOA® Fit System makes the step in effortless and allows for individual fit. The boots are also equiped with Recco Rescue System if an accident should happen in remote terrain.
The fit in the shoes is spacious so that you have room for thick socks and maintain good circulation. If you are unsure about the size, we recommend you choose the smaller size.
Note that certain snow/crust conditions put an extreme strain on the boots’ materials, and under such conditions you should expect increased wear.
