What is the best all mountain alpine ski boot?

Question

need a pair for all mountain

Answer 1

I've been an expert skier for over 35 yrs. & there are quite a few boots that are all excellent. Personally, I use Nordica Boots & I highly recommend them. I've had more than one pair & they are the most comfortable that I've had. They have all the padding that you need inside the boot & they are easy to buckle & have a lot of buckle adjustments whether you the boot tight or loose. They are also very easy to walk in. One important suggestion is to buy your own seperate in-sole. I took the in-sole out of my Nordicas when I bought them & replaced it with an excellent running in-sole for less than $15.00. I do a lot of running & I know the importance of a good in-sole. This will make the boot even better than when you bought it new. In-soles that come with new running shoes & ski boots aren't nearly as good as an in-sole sold at a sporting goods store. Good Luck!!

Answer 2

The boot that fits your foot properly, TIGHT around the foot and ankle, supportive under the foot and still flexible enough to be skiable for your weight and ability. Be sure to be checked for cants and also get a set of footbeds.

Answer 3

The one that fits your two feet the best.

Everyone is different.  What is good for me is probably not the best for you.  Go see a custom boot fitter in your neighborhood.

Answer 4

It's a matter of preference.  As long as the boots are comfortable on you and you can wear them for extended periods, your skiing will benefit.  

I ski on 90 flex Langes and think they're the greatest boots in the world. A Lange boot might not even fit your foot.

Talk to a boot fitter at a ski shop and tell him / her what you're looking for and they can definitely help you out as far as comfort and all-mountain flex.
