HEAD Crux Boot - Women
Skiing serious lines calls for a stiff upper lip -- or a stiff upper cuff. Regardless of the objective, the Women's HEAD Crux Boot is certainly up to the challenge. With years of experience making boots that have performed at the highest levels, HEAD is quite familiar with the kind of performance skiers expect of their boots. Throughout the Crux, the LYT Dynamic Frame connects the lower shell, cuff, and ski/walk mechanism for powerful energy transmission from your feet straight to your skis. With a power strap and 2 buckles on the upper and a wave closure on the lower, this boot isn't going anywhere once it is snugged up, while still allowing plenty of adjustability for skinning or getting the boot on and off. A Vibram Durastep outsole provides confident traction in precarious terrain, whether that's a high knife ridge or icy lodge steps. Ultramid Glass Fiber used in the shell construction makes for an easier-going flex than the Crux Pro while still maintaining a lean weight. If you've dreamed of a boot that eases the experience on the skin track but still offers plenty of oomph for the skiing that follows, the Women's HEAD Crux Boot makes you give up very little in either direction.
- Heavily buckled upper cuff gives plenty of support for hard skiing.

- Moldable liner allows for a customized fit with little effort.
- LYT Dynamic Frame provides stiffness and precision.
- RECCO rescue reflectors offer another level of safety in an avalance incident.
