What are the main points of consideration when selecting ski boots?
A. It’s sort of like buying real estate but instead of location, location, location, it’s fit, fit, fit. If a boot doesn’t fit properly and causes pain or hot spots, your skiing will suffer and you will most likely curtail the amount of time you spend on the hill. A good boot fitter will help you select a boot that has a last (interior shape) designed for your type of foot. They will also set the adjustments to match your body type and do comfort and performance modifications to maximize the boot’s performance for the way you stand and ski, a process called stance alignment.
