Bootfitting is the customization of the ski boot to the shape of your foot. At Peak Sport Adventure, we do it every day in Canazei, just a stone's throw from the Belvedere cable car: we work on the shell, inner liner, and insole to reduce pressure points and discomfort, so the boot fits as it should.
If you buy the boots from us, bootfitting is free, and we remain available for further adjustments throughout your vacation.

The boot is the equipment that has the most impact on feeling the snow and on comfort on the slopes. Choosing the right model for your level and the right size is not enough: every foot has a different shape, and small adjustments to the shell, liner, and insole make the difference between a boot that is merely tolerated and one that fits like a glove.
When you buy ski boots from Peak Sport Adventure you receive a complete bootfitting treatment for free: we adapt the shell and the liner to the shape of your feet. If during your vacation you still feel a pressure point, come back to the store: we will modify the boots purchased from us until they fit comfortably and precisely.
The shell is the plastic part of the boot. Where you feel pressure, we can intervene in two ways.
Milling consists of removing a few millimeters of plastic from the inside, in the spots where the boot presses. Hot stretching is more radical: we heat the plastic with special machines and widen it with small metal forms. This takes more time because the shell must cool down to retain its new shape, and we use it when milling would remove too much material.
After a hot stretch, do not place the boots on radiators or other heat sources: the plastic tends to return to its original shape and the modification would be lost.
The inner boot must fit the shape of your foot. If your foot moves with every turn, repeated micro-movements cause discomfort; if certain areas are more voluminous, sometimes just a few millimeters of padding are enough.
We can replace the original inner boot with a custom thermoformed inner boot: it is always made on your foot, so it follows its shape and reduces movement and pressure points inside the ski boot.
Stock insoles in ski boots are often not very structured and do not fit the foot well. Replacing them is usually the first step to take: it can improve support and comfort and help reduce cramps in the sole of the foot.
The custom insole is thermoformed to your footprint and is made in four steps:
analysis and measurement of the footprint with the podoscope
choosing the insole best suited to the sport you practice
thermoforming the insole based on the footprint
adapting to the chosen ski boot
We can replace buckles and heels on Salomon, Atomic, Nordica, and Rossignol ski boots
Every year we attend refresher courses for bootfitters, including those at Master Fit University, and every day we perform these customizations.
This is why we are able to solve many of the most common problems caused by ski boots.
You can find us at Strèda de Pareda 83, in Canazei, just steps from the Belvedere cable car.
We are open every day from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with continuous hours.
