How Should Ski Boots Fit?

It's important to have a boot that provides comfort and performance and doesn't inhibit blood circulation.

First off, ski boots sizes are listed by Mondopoint, which is equivalent to the length of your foot in centimeters. A simple way to measure your Mondo size is to simply trace the shape of your foot on a piece of paper and then measure it in centimeters.

Ski boots are also measured by what is called the last, or the width of the boot at its widest point—generally the forefoot region, known as the "toe box". The last should be anywhere from 98 mm in width for low-volume, high-performance boots to 104 mm for boots geared toward wide feet.

The fit of a boot differs based on the skier's ability. For a beginner to intermediate skier, with the boot liner out of the shell boot, you should assume an athletic ski stance with your knees bent, then slide your toes all the way up to the front of the boot without ski socks on, flex forward, and be able to fit two fingers between your calf and the cuff of the boot. For an expert skier looking for a more snug or high-performance fit, using the same technique you should be able to fit one finger between the calf and the boot cuff.

With so many gear options to sort through, it can be really helpful to chat with someone who understands your needs and provides guidance. If you have any questions about finding the right ski boots, chat with a Ski Expert here on Curated for free, personalized recommendations.
