Glittertind BC Boot
For backcountry touring, the new Glittertind BC has a hinged cuff for extra edge control. The PVC-free upper is lightweight, yet supportive, and we engineered support and flex inspired by our race boots into the upper of the boot, along with a secure heel hold for climbing. The waterproof/breathable bootie, Thinsulate™ and the MemBrain® softshell lace cover will keep you warm, dry and comfortable during your off-trail adventures. The printed PU rand provides high abrasion-resistance with minimal weight. The TPU toe and heel caps provide durable protection during your adventures and are made using 75% reduced-solvent manufacturing techniques. Built on the NNN BC outsole, the new Glittertind BC lets you ski your own course in untracked snow.
PVC-Free
In keeping with Madshus' ongoing commitment to protect the winter world, Madshus has introduced the best-fitting and most breathable boots yet, in a totally PVC-Free construction that lessens our impact on the winter world around us.
NNN Outsole
Madshus boots use the Rottefella NNN binding interface. With two guide rails and a broader binding plate, NNN offers maximum stability and control over the ski. The close contact between the boot, binding and ski (especially with the NIS plate system) provides optimal power transfer for a more efficient stride.
MemBrain® Softshell Construction
Madshus boots feature MemBrain® softshell and hybrid constructions, allowing the boot to comfortably conform to the contours of the foot while providing durability, waterproof protection, breathability, and warmth.| Recommended Length of Madshus Skate and Classic Skis | ||||
