Female recreational skiers looking to improve their feel and precision on snow will love Rossignol® Xena X10 ski boots. The Drive Cockpit shell situates stiff plastic in areas key to performance (the toe and heel) for precise steering and reaction in the binding system. Stiffer plastic is placed along the arch to optimize foot support and energy transfer to the ski. Designed for women, the upper cuff is cut low with a flared profile to match a woman's natural calf shape; matches similar shaping in women's liner. Stiff plastic in an "X" shape at rear of cuff provides progressive flex for responsive performance; soft plastic around the calf enhances comfort.
The X10's 104mm-wide forefoot and anatomical shape accommodate a wide range of foot widths and shapes. Reliefs in the plastic along the instep create a hinge system to facilitate easy entry and exit; soft plastic where the shell overlaps also aids entry
Women-specific design varies the thickness and shape of the cuff, which allows easy entry and exit and promotes comfort along the shin and calf Total Thermo Fit liner is heat moldable to fit individual foot and ankle contours; faux fur lining and a neoprene/quilted-down toe box add warmth Four microadjustable buckles let you dial in the fit to suit your personal comfort and performance requirements Two tool-free buckle catches provide 22mm of adjustability to fit a range of ankle sizes Single-sided canting aligns the cuff to the lower leg and sets the sole of the boot evenly on the ski Thick toe and heel pieces are injected with a soft polyurethane for comfortable walking and a hard polyurethane for performance in the binding system Shell's 60/50 Flex Index range provides low to medium resistance against forward lean, providing all-day comfort and forgiving performance Styled with distinctively feminine colors and graphics ROSSIGNOL XENA X10 WOMEN'S ALPINE SKI BOOT (06/07)
