A warm and sturdy back country ski boot in full grain leather with good support and comfort for demanding back country touring in the mountains. This boot is a reinforced model of the classic Skarvet / BC Advance GTX BC ski boots to be the perfec companion in hilly terrain with steeper slopes. The boot is winter lined with GORE-TEX, has a stable and heat insulating midsole, as well as anatomic insole. Memoryfoam provides comfort and together with the good fit in the heel this helps prevent blisters, so you can enjoy even the tougher trips and descents. The rubber mudguard protects and lengthens the life span of the boot.
The great stability and extra insulation means the boot is well suited for long distance ice skating.
Note that certain snow/crust conditions are an extreme strain on the boots’ materials, and with use under such conditions, increased wear is expected.

SHAFT HEIGHT: 17.5 cm (EU 42)
Size chart
Place a paper close to the wall and with bare feet place the foot on the paper, with your heel to the wall. Since it is important to stand up straight, preferably have someone help you draw a line in front of the longest toe. Remember to measure both feet as they might not be identical. With a ruler, confirm the measurement in centimeters and add additional space accordingly. For Backcountry, Touring and Expedition add approx. 1.5 cm

The first few hikes caused a few blisters on my heels, but Compeed saved me. No problems today. Fits well and are supportive enough for me when skiing. Keeps moisture out well, didn't necessarily have to change into other shoes when I got to camp. The grip when walking is also surprisingly good. Even in cold weather, they are reasonably warm.| Overall rating |
Hello! I was already familiar with the product as I use ALFA Kikut boots and 75mm lasts, and I'd been dreaming of the Guard Advance GTX. I can confirm I wasn't disappointed! It's a significant improvement in terms of overall build quality, materials, and workmanship. As for performance, it remains incredibly comfortable from the very first outing, precise for perfect ski control—in short, I can't find a single fault with it! I'm truly delighted with this purchase and the service I received! Thank you.| Overall rating |
Perfect shoes for Cross Country skiing. Stable, warm and chick. Delivery even to Germany extremely quick!

Wonderful to have size 50 (US size 15) NNN-BC boots, so that my son can continue skiing. They're very well made, although a little too tight and rigid around the ankles, but that should soften up with time.

Solid lacing system for ensuring a good fit. Excellent workmanship. Very pleased with the boots - outstanding value.

Good quality - you could give it five stars - but the shape of the heel practically does not fit your foot - it produces nice blisters in the shaft when skiing. Tota didn't notice when I got the adapter in the store, I guess the foot moves differently when skiing. All kinds of sock combos have been tried, finally with the help of a hair dryer I heated and shaped the cup. Even after this, they still limp, but so much less that I was able to cross-country ski OK with sports tape/comped. For next year, you have to continue adjusting.
