Tecnica Cochise HV

Yes, this boot is specifically designed for higher-volume feet. With a 102 mm last, it provides a more generous fit compared to standard performance boots without compromising the precision required for expert-level skiing.

Absolutely. The Cochise HV features a 55-degree range of motion in walk mode and includes low-tech inserts, making it highly capable for backcountry touring while maintaining the stiffness and power needed for aggressive resort riding.

The boot utilizes Tecnica's C.A.S. (Custom Adaptive Shape) technology for both the shell and the liner. This allows professional boot fitters to punch, grind, or mold the materials to match your specific foot anatomy for a truly tailored fit.

The Cochise HV comes with GripWalk ISO 23223 soles. They are compatible with GripWalk-certified alpine bindings and most touring bindings, but you should verify that your specific binding model accepts GripWalk soles before use.

A 130 flex is quite stiff and is intended for expert skiers who need maximum energy transfer and stability at high speeds. If you are an intermediate skier, you may find this boot overly demanding and less forgiving than a boot with a lower flex rating.

Yes, the Quick Instep technology uses a softer plastic material over the instep area, which allows the shell to open wider. This significantly reduces the struggle of getting your foot in and out, especially in cold temperatures when plastic typically stiffens.
