This La Sportiva ski boots truly sparkles. That is mainly due to the diamond dust in the soles that help it cut through ice and really grip. The Sparkle 2.0 also features upgraded ski performance over the 1.0 version, due to a reinforced lower shell. The boots still reign supreme when it comes to uphill efficiency in the four-buckle category, due to the low weight and surplus ankle articulation. And best of all, Sportiva offers a comfy fit with the EZ Thermo liners than can be custom molded to your foot. Sparkle-icious!
