Custom-made racing shoes

Racing ski boots are no ordinary ski boots. Every adjustment, every millimetre and every component influences power transfer, edge pressure and cornering behaviour. At Sport Brugger in Sölden, we manufacture racing boots that are perfectly tailored to the shape of your foot, your skiing style and your technique. Whether it’s slalom, giant slalom or speed disciplines – we deliver precision from selection right through to fine-tuning. The ski boot is the vital link between the skier and the slope. That is why there can be no compromises. It’s all about the perfect fit, good performance and comfort. These steps are necessary to achieve that.

Model selection and shell fitting

Model selection and shell fitting

The right model is selected based on foot shape, last width and body weight. The shell is then precisely adjusted: it can be milled, stretched or moulded to prevent pressure points and optimise the fit. If necessary, we also adjust the length so that the volume of the boot matches the shape of your foot and power is transferred to the ski in the best possible way. Every adjustment ensures that the boot offers maximum contact, control and precision.

Footbed & inner shoe fit

Custom-made insoles form the basis for stability and precise support. They mould perfectly to the shape of the foot, distribute pressure evenly and ensure that every movement is transferred to the ski in a controlled manner. This creates a precise interaction between foot and ski, which significantly enhances performance.

Adjusting the inner boot complements the work done on the footbed. Depending on the intended use, Thermoliner insoles are used for even pressure distribution, foam racing inner boots for maximum precision, or Zipfit inner boots for customisable support. These adjustments ensure that the inner boot fits the foot and footbed perfectly, guaranteeing the highest levels of comfort, control and riding experience.

The third step involves the fine-tuning that makes all the difference on the race course. Even the slightest adjustments affect edge pressure, balance and turn initiation – and thus directly impact performance on the piste.

An important component is cuff alignment. This involves aligning the ski boot’s cuff so that it follows the leg’s axis exactly. This adjustment ensures that pressure is distributed evenly, balance is maintained and turns can be executed cleanly and in a controlled manner.

Equally crucial is canting. This involves adjusting the boot to the natural position of the leg and foot to enable perfect edge control. Thanks to this precise adjustment, power is transferred optimally to the ski, and each racing boot is individually tailored to the skier to ensure control and performance.

Fitting racing ski boots requires a high degree of precision and expertise. Every step, from determining the correct size through to fitting the shell and liner and making the final adjustments, is crucial for maximum performance on the slopes. Through careful and professional fitting, racers can optimise their performance and realise the full potential of their ski equipment.

Expert tip – racing shoes

When it comes to boot fitting for racing ski boots, precision and direct power transfer are paramount. The ski boot is fitted closely to the shape of the foot to ensure maximum control. Racing ski boots often have a stiffer shell, which is customised during the boot fitting process through targeted milling to prevent pressure points.

In addition, a bespoke insole is particularly important, as it improves stability and responsiveness. For an optimal fit and performance, it is advisable to have the boot fitting carried out by an experienced expert in the racing sector.
