Proper Fit
It’s not only the size of the boots that matter when determining a proper fit. The width of the toe box (known as the “last”), the forward flex of the boot, the room in the instep and the shape and height of the cuff are all equally important.
Last
Last refers to the width of the plastic shell at the toe area known as the “toe box”. This corresponds to the width of the forefoot.
Narrow feet typically are better suited to a narrow lasted boot while a wide foot fits better in a wide lasted boot.
Some boots are even made to accommodate extra wide feet with special expanding materials built into the shell at the widest point of the foot.
Below is a general guideline to Lasts however, they differ depending on the boot, whether it's a men's or ladies boot and the manufacturers interpretation of last.
Narrow | Average | Wide |
Flex
The flex rating of a ski boot corresponds to the degree of forward movement that the boot will yield when the skier bends the knees and applies pressure when turning. Generally, the more aggressive the skier the stiffer the flex should be to support the force applied when skiing fast.
The skier’s weight, height and the range of motion of the foot can also be factored in when choosing the flex of the boot.
