Must be cool being a kid skier these days—the companies have really stepped up their game over the past few years. The Salomon Shift Pro 80T AT boots are an amazing choice for junior skiers who are starting their ski careers in a very adventurous way. Modeled and designed after the adult version of the boots, and styled in collaboration with the QST 106 skis in both the adult and youth designs, the Shift Pro 80T ski boots are opening up a world of outdoor and backcountry ski adventures for a whole new generation of skiers. It’s pretty sweet that they’re making boots like this that go down to a 22.5, because why not? Why not open this up to young skiers who will hopefully take the torch and pass it along to their progeny years down the road. There’s plenty of snow and mountains for all of us, and it’s fantastic that they’re getting the kids involved early. With an 80-flex and a 100 mm forefoot last, the boots are soft enough to allow lighter skiers the ability to flex appropriately, as well as being comfortable with that 100 mm width. GripWalk soles and Dynafit tech fittings allow you to hook in to your favorite tech bindings and make your way up some of the gnarliest and remotest mountains in the world. For young skiers looking to lead the charge into the next decade, look no further than the Salomon Shift Pro 80T AT ski boots.
