Women’s Ski Boot - Rossignol Alltrack 70

Experience

Multi-purpose boot (slope/edge) with an excellent balance of accuracy/comfort. Their ski/walk mode gives you an extremely pleasant comfortable feeling when walking so you can enjoy long days on the slopes.

Hook adjustment

This boot comes with 4 micro-metric solid aluminium buckles. You can adjust the buckle length by screwing or unscrewing the buckle. The top buckle has 3 positions to fit all calf sizes. A wide, adjustable strap at the top of the upper makes for strong and easy closure at the top of the shell.

What is FLEX?

To provide an indication of boot rigidity, brands assign a flex rating to every boot. This figure indicates the rigidity of the boot: the higher its value, the stiffer the shell. A flex below 60 is designed for beginner level skiers. A flex from 70 to 90 is for intermediate skiers. Beyond this value, the products are aimed at advanced skiers. Heavy builds can, however, go up a level.

How do you know if the boot you are trying on is the right size?

Once the foot is in the boot, fasten the buckles to the midpoint. Can you go further? This means the volume of the boot isn't right for you. Once the boot is closed, you must flex the boots 3 times by pressing hard on the shins (put your hands on your knees to help) and push your heel backwards inside the boot. Stand upright: your foot should touch the end of the shell. When you flex, your foot should move backwards so you can no longer feel the end.

What should you do if you experience foot pain?

1- Choose a technical ski sock that's thin so it prevents pressure points and promotes blood circulation in the foot.

2- Choose a sole adapted to the shape of your foot to prevent it from being squashed and pressing against the shell. Ask a salesperson in store for advice.

How to store your ski boots?

1- Air your boots by removing the liner that is inside the plastic shells.

2- Fasten the buckles at the first notch to prevent the boots from becoming deformed and, if possible, store them in a boot bag.

3- If possible, store them in a dry place where the temperature will not drop below 10°C. The boot's plastic will thank you for it!
