Experience
The 500 is designed for intermediate skiers looking for a simple yet effective boot with unbeatable value for money. Easy to slip on/off thanks to a connector on the top of the foot. The 4 micrometric aluminium buckles and a strap ensure effective tightening. Its generous volume (102 mm) and thick liner provide a very good combination of comfort and support. Fairly flexible (Flex 70) for good ski handling with tolerance.
HOOK ADJUSTMENT
The 500 ski boot has 4 aluminium micrometric hooks for powerful and precise tightening. You can adjust the length of the buckle by screwing or unscrewing it in order to personalise the tightness of the fit. The top 2 hooks have 3 positions to fit all calf sizes (requires a screwdriver). A wide, adjustable strap at the top of the upper makes for strong and easy closure at the top of the shell.
WHAT IS THE FLEX?
To provide an indication of boot rigidity, brands assign a flex rating to every boot. This figure indicates the rigidity of the boot: the higher its value, the stiffer the shell. A flex of 60 is designed for skiers at beginner level. A flex from 70 to 90 is for intermediate skiers. Beyond that, the products are aimed at advanced skiers. Heavy builds can, however, go up a level.
What's my shoe size?
The size of ski boots is stated in Mondopoint size. It’s actually the length of the foot in cm.
Wedge your heels along a wall, slide a sheet of paper underneath, flex and measure the longest foot.
For example, if your foot measures 27.2 cm, you should choose size 27/27.5.
A size 27 shoe is exactly the same as a 27.5 Sometimes only the insole is different.

How do you know if the boot you are trying on is the right size?
Once the foot is in the boot, fasten the buckles to the midpoint. Can you go further? This means the volume of the boot isn't right for you. Once the boot is closed, you must flex the boots 3 times by pressing hard on the shins (put your hands on your knees to help) and push your heel backwards inside the boot. Stand upright: your foot should touch the end of the shell. When you flex, your foot should move backwards so you can no longer feel the end.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF YOU FEEL PAIN IN YOUR FOOT?
1- Choose a technical ski sock that's thin so it prevents pressure points and promotes blood circulation in the foot.
2- Choose a sole adapted to the shape of your foot to prevent it from being squashed and pressing against the shell. Ask a salesperson in store for advice.

How to store your ski boots?
1- Air your boots by removing the liner that is inside the plastic shells.
2- Fasten the buckles at the first notch to prevent the boots from becoming deformed and, if possible, store them in a boot bag.
3- If possible, store them in a dry place where the temperature will not drop below 10°C. The boot's plastic will thank you for it!
