Here is the boot for all your junior skiers. Built to be easy on and off, this boot is constructed with a 3-piece shell design to hold the foot securely even when purchased a little big for the growing foot. The flex index is designed for the lightweight skier. It has 1 ratchet buckle on the upper, and an additional closure on the lower to snug it up for the more aggressive skier. One that is still easy for little hands to operate. Lightweight construction won't weigh down little skiers. Great boot for kids first pair.
