Today, the ski boot adapted to your foot becomes a reality. It's Bootfitting!
Skiing is synonymous with holidays, freedom and fun. However, you can't help but think about the obligatory and sometimes painful passage of putting on and taking off your shoes.
For a while now there have been techniques for adapting the ski boot to the foot of its owner. We are thinking in particular of the injection of slippers. But, in practice, these expensive solutions have long been reserved for a clientele made up mainly of snow sports professionals.
Bootfitting refers to the technologies developed to ensure better gliding comfort while respecting the morphology of each foot. Simple, fast and effective, this technique is available in several processes available in your Magnin Sport store in Valloire.

we can slightly deform the shell of your shoes using a jack to relieve a painful area. (AIDS Yeti)
