What is bootfitting ?
Bootfitting is a service offered in ski shops for clients who wish to customize their ski boots to their own foot shape and ski practices. This process is based on three criteria specific for each client to be defined : the ski boot shell, the custom insoles, and the right socks.
In order to choose the right shell, the professional identifies the skier’s foot volume and shape, as well as their level and practice of skiing (ski touring, alpine skiing, down hill skiing, etc).
Whenever a client cannot find their perfect shoe, the ski boot’s shell needs to be altered as a means to fit their morphological needs. To do so, the professional uses the appropriate solution among thermoforming of the liner and the shell, padding of the liners, pressuring of the liner using tools such as alligator clips or using thermoforming liner. This molding process results in 100% customized ski boots for better performance, and ultimate comfort of the skier.
