Ski season is coming soon. It’s time to take care of the equipment. The thought of ski boots can feel overwhelming to winter sports enthusiasts. Because shoes are definitely not the most comfortable part of the outfit, but they are very important. Ski boots should be unique, like each foot.

Model selection depends on ability, body size, driving style and taste. But the most important thing is that the ski boots fit well. This is the only way to best transfer muscle power to the skis and provide maximum control on the slopes.

Foot analysis for the perfect fit

For this perfect grip and the highest possible comfort, OCHSNER SPORT relies on the latest technology. Even if ski boots are bought off the shelves, they can be perfectly adapted to the foot. First, the feet are measured using a scanner. Data on foot length, shape and width provide information about suitable shoes. At the same time, a foot analysis is performed and the right sole is recommended.

Sidas soles, specially developed for skiing, can be adjusted individually to the foot in stores in less than ten minutes. Perfectly fitting soles not only provide greater comfort, they also promote blood circulation, which keeps the feet warmer, and can correct misalignments.

On the counter, in the oven

Experts also adapt the inner and outer shoes perfectly to the foot. Crude tools, furnaces and a lot of knowledge are used. The inside of the shoe is heated and then adjusted directly to the foot. Ski boot fitters can also machine the hard outer shell using heat. Exposed areas are taped to prevent the ski boot from getting stuck anywhere.

The professionals at OCHSNER SPORT can make individual adjustments to avoid pressure points, as well as guarantee the perfect fit and thus adapt to the riding ability of the person concerned. The better the shoe fits, the more stable winter sports enthusiasts will have and the more fun they will have on their skis.

A small effort for a long season

Ski boot fitting is available at selected stores. When you buy new ski boots, foot analysis with the Sidas Evo scanner and temperature adjustment of the inner and outer shell of the boot are included free of charge. This also applies to ski boots in the online store. There is also a one-year compatibility warranty.

Ski boot types meet all the needs of athletes. From special models for children to versatile ski boots, freeride, racing and even touring shoes, OCHSNER SPORT offers all the options.

By the way: If you buy ski boots from an online store, you can use Mondopoint to find the right shoe size. To do this, place your foot on a piece of paper (preferably a wall) with your heel aligned with the edge of the paper and trace the shape of your foot in front of your toes. Now you can easily measure your foot length. Mondopoint is the length of the foot in centimeters. So 24.5 centimeters is 24.5 Mondo, which corresponds to a shoe size of 38.5.

Of course, this is easier and more accurate in the store, where your feet are analyzed before trying them on and ski boots are selected according to your skiing needs.

Winter may come now.
