Lange Shadow

The LV designation indicates a narrower last, typically around 97mm or 98mm. This boot is designed for skiers with lower-volume feet who need a snug, performance-oriented fit to minimize heel lift and maximize control.

The Dual Pivot system creates a mechanical advantage that makes it easier to initiate turns. By increasing leverage, it allows you to engage the boot's flex with less physical effort, resulting in a more responsive and precise connection to your skis.

A 120 flex is generally considered an advanced-to-expert rating. While it offers excellent power transfer, it requires a certain level of technique and leg strength to flex properly; if you are still developing your form, you might find it demanding.

The Suspension Blade connects the upper and lower cuffs to help manage the boot's flex. It acts as a dampener, absorbing vibrations from uneven snow and providing a smoother, more consistent feel throughout your turn.

These boots feature GripWalk soles, which are compatible with most modern alpine bindings. However, you should always check that your specific binding is GripWalk-compatible or adjustable to ensure a safe release.

This is a dedicated alpine boot designed for resort performance. It lacks the walk-mode features and lightweight construction typically required for backcountry touring.
