Ski Boots Under $400

When comparing ski boots under $400, focus on the shape inside the shell before comparing closures. An earlier boot with secure heel hold can be a better purchase than a newer one that needs constant tightening. Assess forefoot room, instep pressure and how the cuff meets your calf. Flex should let you move forward in balance without folding easily under your weight. Put extra money toward a better fit or useful fitting work before a different buckle style. Avoid assuming that matching last widths mean matching comfort, and ask about return terms before trying an unfamiliar shape at home.
