La SportivaVega - Touring Ski boots - Men's
Unleash your full potential on both descents and ascents with the Vega touring ski boots from La Sportiva, designed for skiers seeking the perfect balance between control, precision, and lightness. These 4-buckle boots combine the strength and stability of a downhill boot with the mobility of a mountaineering boot, allowing you to tackle steep slopes as well as technical and slippery terrains.
The carbon-reinforced Grilamid® shell makes the Vega lightweight and durable, while the patented Vertebra Technology™ enhances power transmission with a flex of 125, ideal for controlled descents.
With a 60° range of motion and an EZ Flex™ inner liner, they are designed to facilitate walking, technical passages, and climbs. Finally, the dual-density Vibram® sole ensures reliable grip, and the dual compatibility with Race TECH and AT bindings offers optimal versatility.
G-Shell™: ultra-compact shell: only 303 mm in length, size 27.5. Made of lightweight Grilamid® to reduce thickness and weight while maintaining structural strength. The cuff features an unprecedented mobility of 60° in total with closed buckles (30° forward
30° backward) the innovative Rear Diffuser provides more stability and security at the ankle when the shell is closed in the forward position
Cuff: the bi-axial Dual-Axis Cuff™ is composed of 2 synergistic elements: 1) a dual-density Pebax® part and double Climbing System Control™ hook that provides lateral stability control and increases ankle joint range during ascent, 2) the patented Vertebra Technology™ carbon-loaded locking system: structural part of the boot that facilitates power transmission on descents thanks to exceptional flexibility qualities “120-Flex”. The addition of an asymmetrical rear spoiler allows for fine-tuning of the boot and foot position in the shell
Walking Profile: the bi-axial cuff providing a 60° range of motion and the aligned shell configuration make the boot compatible with AT binding systems. The 17 mm ramp-angle offers comfort even after hours of use
Shell Line: stiffening line defined through structural analysis on 3D models to contain shell deformation
EZ Flex™ Tongue: Pebax® Rnew® bio-based tongue with bellows junction: concept derived from La Sportiva mountaineering boots allowing for ample movement range on steep slopes. Under the tongue, there is a snow gaiter. The position of the tongue can also be adjusted in 3 positions, customizing the fit by 4 mm which can significantly influence walking comfort
4BT Tech Last™: the neutral shape with an internal width of 102.5 mm keeps the foot in a comfortable position to tackle very technical terrains. Similar to the shape used on Spitfire, Sideral, and Starlet but wider for more comfort in the fifth metatarsal area
WarmSole™ Insert: removable insulating polyurethane insole: prevents direct foot contact with the shell, enhancing the boot's thermal qualities, making it the warmest 4-buckle on the market
EZ-TECH Buckles™ (patented): aluminum buckles with micrometric arm for micro-adjustments in closing and opening operations
Power Strap: velcro strap allowing for further tightening of the shell and securing it more firmly around the leg to handle any type of descent
Vertebra Technology™: patented carbon-loaded Grilamid® vertebra. Constitutes the structural part of the cuff and ensures maximum safety and precision in “Downhill mode” by transferring leg power to the shell and ski for decisive and powerful descents
Binding Compatibility: Race TECH and AT bindings
Walk/Ski Mechanism: immediate closure system for switching from ski to walk mode in one quick patented movement
Adjustment system applied to the vertebra: allows for cuff angle adjustment in 3 positions: 12°, 14°, 18°
V-LINER: preformed liner on the shape of the shell, provides immediate comfort. Thermoformability allows for further customization of the fit if necessary
