The Hawx Ultra 95 W is always one of our most popular boots and the current version with a firmer shell and more powerful skiing than previous models is sure to continue this. It's still incredibly lightweight, with the same medium to low volume shape and a flex that targets intermediate and advanced skiers. Customisation is simple with the Memory Fit shell heat moulded to match the skier's foot shape whilst the Memory fit 3D Gold Liner provides extra customisation. With Power Shift on the spine to adjust forward lean and flex, and dual cuff alignment, this great boot can be perfectly set to your skiing style.Ability LevelOverviewFitSnug fit around the rear foot and medium over the instep, medium to narrow on the forefoot, round toe shape.ShellTrue Flex PU Memory Fit shell with PU Memory Fit cuff, mouldable. Updated for this season with stronger shell walls for even better power transfer and stability. The advanced heat fitting technology of Memory Fit creates a fully personalised shell and cuff in minutes. The key is Memolink, a special additive that improves the mouldability and stretch characteristics of the plastic. The boot shell is heated in an oven, then the skier's foot is placed inside the complete boot whilst it cools. With the foot's natural standing pressure, the forefoot of the boot can expand up to 3mm per side and the ankle area up to 5mm per side. True Flex is an exclusive Atomic shell material that means your flex and feel remains constant in a variety of temperatures. So, the boot you buy in store feels the same on the mountain, you don't lose horsepower in the spring and you don't have a boot that you can't flex in mid-winter.LinerMimic Gold W 3M Thinsulate, mouldable. Atomic's unique Mimic liners use a layer of supportive thermoformable material in the heel, ankle and tongue areas. After being softened in an oven, this material mimics the precise shape of your foot, and hardens in that shape for a perfect custom fit. 3D means pre-shaped heel and ankles areas for better foot hold and comfort. Thinsulate is the world's best-known insulation and its use keeps feet warmer. In addition there is heat mouldable foam in the tongue and ankle area that can be formed to the foot at the same time as the Mimic material.Key FeaturesProliteProlite is a way of building skis and boots that turns traditional thinking on its head. Instead of starting with a standard construction and cutting material away to save weight, Prolite does the opposite. It starts with the slimmest possible profile and then it builds up reinforcements in key areas where strength is needed.Power ShiftPower Shift allows the forward lean to be adjusted to 13o, 15o or 17o simply by moving the power control up and down. You can also alter the flex index by +/- 10 flex points by adding or removing a screw. Creates a completely personalised set-up.energy BackboneThe energy Backbone is a reinforced, asymmetric backbone that provides extra strength for powerful skiing plus enhanced lateral energy transmission for better edge grip.ThinsulateThe more air a material traps in a given space the greater its insulating value. The microfibres in 3M Thinsulate insulation are far finer than any other fibres, which means they trap more insulating air in less space, even when wet. This keeps feet warm and responsive even in extremely cold and damp conditions.General InformationCategory: AlpineFlex: 95Last Width: 98-102Custom Shell: YesCustom Liner: YesPower Strap: Velcro 35mmVolume: Low-MediumClips: 4 x 6000-Series Aluminium, MicroadjustableSole Unit: Grip Walk (ISO 23223)Pin Inserts: NoSizing Hike Mode: NoRange of Motion: n/aWeight (g): 1805 (1/2 pair size 26.5)Binding Compatibility: GripWalk, WTR, Multi Norm [Full Details]

The new 2024 range of Nordica Unlimited boots offers the perfect blend of uphill functionality and downhill skiing performance, with the Unlimited LT 130 DYN sitting at the top of the range. This is an early release of just a few pairs, that is available exclusively at ellis Brigham in the UK. An eco-aware Greenline Grilamid shell, 65 degrees range of motion and pin inserts make ascents effortless; the 130 flex, chunky 50mm Quick Release cuff strap and Tri Force construction deliver the power that good skiers will appreciate on the descent. A 99mm last provides a snug yet comfortable out-of-the-box fit that can be enhanced using Nordica’s Infrared customisation process and to really dial in the fit the 3D Light Performance Fit TF liner is fully thermoformable. Clever design work means a cable closure on the lower foot that easily switches from tightened for downhill skiing to a loser touring feel with an easy flick of the toe clip. The soles also benefit from thinking beyond the normal, with full length GripWalk units that offer excellent traction and are also replaceable, something not found on any other boot.Ability LevelTour4OverviewFitMedium ankle and heel pocket, average instep height with a medium width forefoot and round toe shape.ShellInfrared Grilamid eMS. Grilamid is strong yet lightweight so it manages to fuse the performance and support that good downhill skiers need with the lightness tourers want too, whilst also maintaining a consistent level of performance across temperatures, so you know they'll feel the same in the cold mid-winter as they do in spring slush. The Infrared Technology is a super-effective way to customise the fit precisely for the best possible shape.Liner3D Light Performance Fit TF, mouldable. For those looking for optimal performance on the approach, the 3D Light Performance Fit TF PrimaLoft liner weighs only 280 grams. It’s truly at ease climbing the longest and most demanding slopes. PVC free.Key FeaturesTri-Force ConstructionNordica’s Unlimited boots are shaped by both new ideas and the distillation of proven technologies. After all, sometimes the answers we seek begin with what we already know. For proof, look no further than the Tri Force Cuff found on the new Unlimited boots. Through the years, Nordica have leveraged theirr Tri Force Construction to create a range of boots tailored to the unique needs of today’s skiers. By strategically positioning three different densities of materials – a feat done by no one else in the game – Nordica’s Tri Force Cuff Construction boosts the fit and performance of a boot while minimizing weight. A softer front cuff panel wraps the shin to enhance fit and ensures a smooth flex when skiing and optimizes mobility when hiking. The cuff’s mid layer provides lateral support and helps boost energy transmission. Lastly, an exceptionally stiff spine supports the ski-walk mechanism to maximize power, control, and response. For the Unlimited boots, they developed a Tri Force Cuff that maximizes comfort and performance whether you’re skiing, skinning, or hiking. And needless to say, it also maximizes your fun.Infrared TechnologyInfrared Technology is a super-effective way to customise the fit precisely for the best possible shape. The shell is slowly heated and then a vacuum system is used to gently reshape the plastic where any additional moulding is need to get the best match to a skier's feet.Hike MechanismNordica’s Unlimited boots are built for life in motion – be that skiing, hiking, or skinning. That’s why they showcase a specially designed ski-walk mechanism. It maximizes stability, control, and confidence when skiing thanks to the mechanism’s lock-out feature. It also offers exceptional comfort and mobility when walking or skinning. Thanks to an incredible range of motion of 65 degrees, the boot provides the freedom of movement necessary for climbing the most demanding slopes. And to better meet your needs based on how you’re moving through specific terrain, you can readily adjust the boot’s forward lean. This is done by simply rotating the ski-walk mechanism block by 180 degrees. In one orientation, this block provides 13 degrees of forward lean for a more aggressive, performance-oriented stance when descending. In the alternate orientation, the block offers 11 degrees of forward lean to create a more natural, relaxed feeling when walking. No matter how you move, you can depend on Nordica’s Unlimited boots.Wrapping BootsThe little things matter. And often, these little things ultimately aren’t so little. This is especially true for the buckles on the Unlimited boots. Guided by a commitment to enriching your adventures, Nordica reimagined how the buckles on these boots perform. And in doing this, they improved the fit, efficiency, and durability of the boots. Instead of classical bales, the Unlimited boots feature a streamlined wire closure system that cradles your foot to offer a precise fit that boosts comfort and control. When it’s time to hike, skin, or just loosen up your boots, you can simply undo the quick-release power strap and flip up the toe buckle to release the closure system, which loosens the lower shell for greater comfort and mobility. And to further reduce weight and provide a consistent and reliable fit, the remaining buckles on the boot use a special magnesium alloy. Buckle up–and never look back–with Nordica’s Unlimited boots.SoleTo be worthy of adventure, a touring boot must be capable of not just enduring but also excelling in the diverse terrain it will inevitably encounter. Guided by this belief, Nordica set out to develop an entirely new sole for our Unlimited boots – a sole that was as versatile as it was durable. It had to offer exceptional grip to ensure it could withstand hiking in the most treacherous terrain – be that a rocky summit, high-stakes glacial traverse, or a parking lot coated in ice. Yet it also had to interface perfectly with countless binding systems while maximizing safety and control. This led to the creation of a sole that provides the legendary traction and performance of the Michelin Gripwalk system while also featuring DYN inserts. This sole is compatible with both ISO Gripwalk and alpine touring standards. And thanks to its screw-on design, the sole can readily be replaced to maximize the longevity of the boot. No matter how you define adventure–or where you pursue it–you can depend on Nordica’s Unlimited soles.Greenline GrilamidNordica’s Unlimited boots push the limits of Grilamid, pioneering new ways to leverage the material and unlock its full potential. This polyurethane is exceptionally light and durable. It also has a reduced impact on the environment, as it is derived from renewable resources such as castor oil. And while the use of Grilamid helps ensure these all-mountain boots are incredibly light, they also offer an unparalleled fit and performance thanks to a tapered and precise silhouette and a 99 mm last.

Dalbello’s Panterra 100 is a great all mountain choice for intermediate and lighter advanced skiers. The hike mode provides 50o of articulation for ascending or just getting around town; GripWalk soles improve walking. The Power Cage saves weight over previous models without dropping any performance; Cabrio design ensures a smooth flex and consistent contact with the tongue and shin, as well as easy entry and exit. Personalisation comes via the custom fitting of the MyFit shell, IF Performer liner plus the twin canting and variable ramp angle. Alpine soles are provided in the box.Ability LevelOverviewFitA medium to high volume fit all over, cabrio construction gives some flexiblity for height over the instep. Shell Irfran shell and cuff with PU tongue, mouldable. Dalbello's unique Cabrio construction combines a boot shell/boot cuff assembly with an external Kinetic Response Tongue closure which enables a progressive power transmission and great shock absorption. Furthermore, a smooth flex and a dynamic rebound are characteristic of the Cabrio Construction. This design also allows for an effective Hike & Ride feature, as the burly cuff lock mechanism frees the upper cuff from the lower shell a long range of motion for functional hiking and climbing is guaranteed. The Powercage design and milled outer shell result in optimum power distribution across the entire boot and reduce the weight without compromising on stabilityLinerIF Performer Liner, mouldable. IF means Instant Fit and stands exactly for this - instant fit at the very first step in. 60% of this high-performance fitting liner can be thermo formed in four minutes only. The special 8mm medium density of Ultralon foam cushions the foot as great as it supports the power transmission. Pe upper provides support and the neoprene toe box improves comfort.Key FeaturesGripWalk SolesWalking in ski boots always was difficult and somehow dangerous. GripWalk is the revolutionary sole-binding innovation that provides much better walking comfort and improved grip. GripWalk soles with rocker profile are completely covered with a high friction material for better grip on any surface. Integrated anti friction bars enable a very direct and effective power transmission to the binding.Dynalink Heel Retention SystemThe Dynalink heel retention is an independently functioning heel / instep closure assembly which minimizes foot sliding, heel lift and boot shell distortion during the flex effectively.Low Cuff Hinge PointThe Panterra uses a high leverage cuff assembly with hinge points mounted lower than standard construction boot designs. The Low Hinging Cuff permits the boot cuff to more easily follow the natural anatomic movement of the skier’s legs because it has a longer range of forward and rearward hinging motion. For more efficient walking and gliding. Increased power and control with less energy.Variable Volume Fit Shell Fitexclusive to Dalbello. Developed to permit skiers to regulate overall boot width from a range of 102 to 100 mm. Set it, and forget it. Once VVF has been set, Panterra models may be skied, put on and taken off using remaining 3 buckles.Inverted Forefoot BuckleThe forefoot closure buckle is inverted to close on top of the boot shell, not on the side. The top closure positioning prevents buckle breakage and bending.Variable Ramp AngleAdding the variable ramp angle Shim under the footboard changes the ramp angle from 3 to 4 degrees. This gives the skier the ability to find the optimum ramp angle for balance and performance.SpecificationCategory: AlpineFlex: 100Last Width: 100-102Custom Shell: YesCustom Liner: YesPower Strap: 40mmVolume: Medium-HighClips: n/aSole Unit: Grip Walk (ISO 9523)Pin Inserts: NoHike Mode: YesWeight (g): 1920Binding Compatibility: Alpine, Grip Walk, Multi Norm [Full Details]
