Precise fit and comfortable medium-wide volume
With a 102 mm last, the Nordica HF 120 (GW) Ski Boots offer a medium-wide fit designed for skiers who need a little more space without sacrificing foot support. This fit helps minimize pressure points while maintaining the necessary contact to control your skis with confidence. The PU shell and dual-material PU cuff provide a stable, uniform fit, ideal for on-piste use with solid foot and ankle support.
The 3D Cork Fit Primaloft® liner provides a three-dimensional fit around the heel and midfoot, ensuring precise support and reliable power transfer. The cork inserts improve lateral power transfer, while the Primaloft® insulation helps keep your feet warm and dry, even during long days on the snow. Infrared Technology also allows a bootfitter to customize the shell’s fit to relieve pressure on sensitive areas or optimize the fit based on your foot shape.
Flex 120 and Controlled Power Transfer
With a flex rating of 120, these ski boots meet the needs of skiers seeking firm support to engage their edges while maintaining a certain level of comfort. This flex level offers a structure that’s rigid enough to efficiently transfer pressure to the skis, while allowing some leeway to absorb variations in terrain. The medium-wide volume and PU construction contribute to a stable response, well-suited for firm edging and dynamic turns.
The powerstrap and bi-material cuff reinforce the upper part of the boot to improve shin support and ensure consistent flex. This provides you with more direct power transfer, making it easier to control your skis through turns and manage changes in pace. This performance, combined with the 120 flex, makes it a solid choice for skiers seeking a good balance between support and comfort.
Thermal Comfort and Easy Entry
The 3D Cork Fit Primaloft® liner isn’t just about support—it also contributes to thermal comfort. Primaloft® insulation is designed to retain heat and wick away moisture, helping to keep your feet in a comfortable temperature range throughout the day. This benefit is especially noticeable when temperatures drop or during extended outings.
In terms of practicality, the single-buckle rear closure system makes putting the boots on and taking them off much easier. The shell opens wide at the back, allowing your foot to slide more easily into the boot and reducing the effort required when putting them on. The single-buckle closure also simplifies tightening, while maintaining consistent support for the foot and instep once the buckle is locked.
GripWalk® Extra-Grip Soles and Everyday Use
The Nordica HF 120 (GW) ski boots are equipped with GripWalk® Extra-Grip soles, designed to improve traction when walking around the resort or on slippery surfaces. This specialized sole provides more secure traction off the skis, reducing the risk of slipping when walking on packed snow or icy soil, and making movement more comfortable.
Weighing 1,900 g per boot in size 26.5, they fall within a standard weight range for alpine ski boots designed for performance and comfort. The anthracite-black-red color scheme adds a technical yet understated touch to your gear, in line with their positioning as unisex alpine ski boots suitable for use throughout the winter seasons.
