Salomon Shift Pro 130 Boot
Like its binding namesake, the Salomon Shift Pro 130 AT is aimed at the skier that wants the ability to go touring but spends the bulk of their time in the confines of a ski resort. Starting with the Coreframe insert, Salomon was able to keep the weight of the Shift down to “tourable” levels without sacrificing the stiffness that skiers demand from a 130-flex boot. Being the lovable material science nerds that they are, Salomon used a Polyolefin Polymid spine, which, when combined with the Surelock Ski Walk Mechanism, offers acceptable side-country performance on the up and exceptional performance on the down. With tech inserts and a Gripwalk sole, the Shift is ready to be used with either tech or Gripwalk compatible alpine bindings. The Custom Shell HD frame allows the shell of the Shift to shift, offering a truly customized fit to a wide array of foot shapes. If you spend most of your time inbounds but find yourself longingly looking at untracked ski lines just outside the gates, then get some avalanche training/gear, touring bindings, Salomon Shift Pro 130 AT boots, and make the turns of your dreams!
- Coreframe allows the boot to be somewhat light and stiff.
- Custom Shell HD allows a bootfitter to match the Shift to a wide array of feet.
- Surelock Ski Walk Mechanism is low profile and easy to use.
- My Custom Fit 4D is moldable for a custom fit.
- Sensifit Insert helps you put the boots on with less profanity involved.
