Ski Boots
Atomic M 80 W £220
Head Edge+ 11 One £220
Fit: medium instep, good heel retention, roomy toebox, average cuff The M 80 W is a top-selling boot packed with useful features and fitting options, and another one that is ultimately successful because it has a great shape and fits a lot of skiers. The flex is firm enough for good, sporty intermediates but not so stiff that it hinders progress. Adaptive Fit System options at the cuff and heel mean personalisation is easy and effective, improving comfort and performance. Shell: bi-material polyolefin (PE) shell and cuff Liner: ASY Sport T2 Flex: 80 Last width: 102mm Velcro strap: 35mm Canting: single Excenter Features: Rotated / Offset Shell, Adaptive Fit System, ASY Fit Liner Sizes: 23.5-26.5 Code 701062
Fit: medium to high volume, wide forefoot, generous ankle room, wide cuff The Edge+ 11 One is the big sister to the 10.5, using the same effective shape and excellent features. Where it differs is that it has a stiffer flex for added performance, a firmer liner for better control, and a more responsive plastic shell for improved energy transmission. Comfort is upgraded too, with a plush, faux-fur fabric on the innerboot adding a luxurious feel to the overall package. Shell: PU ether shell and polyolefin (PP) cuff Liner: High Performance HeatFit with faux fur Flex: 80-70 Last width: 104mm Velcro strap: 30mm Canting: double Features: Stabilizer, Soft Walk Grip System, Double Power Buckle, Supermacro Ratchet, Double Adjustable Profile Sizes: 23.0-26.5 Code 701057

Salomon Divine RS 8 £225 Fit: medium rearfoot and instep, medium to wide forefoot, average cuff Most boots at this price will offer similar flexes or features but, apart from the well-fitting shape, the thing that really makes this boot stand out is a PU shell and cuff. Together with the Advanced Shell Technology, this adds a level of precision and performance other boots can’t match. The 70 flex makes it easy to use and forgiving, therefore it’s the ideal option for intermediates looking for a quality boot to progress in.
