Designed exclusively for REI, the Salomon Idol X7 ski boots deliver plenty of performance and comfort to advanced female skiers. Bi-material shell and cuff use soft materials over the instep and the front of the cuff for ease of entry, excellent foot envelopment and progressive flex. Second Skin last envelops the foot with a anatomic performance fit, so every bit of control pressure is transferred to the ski. Spaceframe Shell Profile, with multilayer construction and precise wall thicknesses, optimizes feeling, performance and energy transmission. Thin-wall construction of the Second Skin Shell creates a light, sensitive boot, providing superior fit and feel. Oversize Sensifit material over the forefoot and up the front of the shell enhances comfort and ease of entry. Sensifit 2D cuff uses the same soft material in the shin and cuff overlap areas to accommodate varying lower-leg shapes. Energyzer shell reinforcement provides a progressive and responsive flex. My Customfit Comfort liner, featuring a layer of conformable foam, customizes the fit along the front of the ankle. Women-specific cuffs and liners sit low on the leg (lower than a man's boot sits) to accommodate a typically low calf. Loop on tongue aids putting the boot on and taking it off. Microadjustable titanium buckles shave weight off the boot while providing performance-enhancing stiffness. Auto 3D instep buckle has three adjustable positions on the shell, allowing a personalized closure angle for optimal envelopment, comfort and control. 35mm strap enhances wrap and support of the upper ankle while increasing the boot's forward rigidity. Canting adjustment aligns the cuffs to lower leg shape; rear spoiler heights can be adjusted for more, or less, rear support. Replaceable soles let you maintain your boots for years of use. |
