I can feel the the ski so well when I have it laid over on groomers! In the bumps and powder they are light and lively! The kicker was skinning this spring in them…so light, no blisters and your ripping down the hill after in “real” boots!!

For me sport is adrenalin and speed means adrenalin. Since I have been using Dodge SkiBoots I feel to go faster! Near me located the bigger producer of ski boots in the world but not the best! Dodge SkiBoots are absolutely the best.

I am looking for anything that will make my time on the slopes more enjoyable. For me, it is creating a ski and boot set up that makes you feel like you’re driving stolen racecar. That’s what I’m constantly searching for in equipment.

“Dodge Boots have exceeded expectations under a wide range of snow conditions, and always seemed to be exerting just the right amount of pressure edge to edge.”

“The performance of the Dodge Boot is a whole factor beyond anything else that has previously existed and at the same time is the most comfortable and compliant ski boot I have even been in.”

- skiixcellent!
The boots have a very different feel. I like the analogy that conventional boots are like padded running shoes. Some of the energy that the skier expends is absorbed (and squandered) by the shoe. Dodge Boots are like bike shoes; designed to transmit the skiers' (bikers') energy to the ski (bike).

I think a prospective buyer will be quite happy owning a pair of Dodge boots. They are precise, their light weight makes them a lot of fun and the customer service is very responsive, very knowledgeable and committed to making Dodge boots the best boots you have ever owned. A buyer can be assured that they will continue to receive very proficient and attentive support long after the sale.

- Not a just a ski boot, a skiers boot©
Expect to use another liner, I settled on a Zipfit WC after trying two different intuitions and an old Lange. I might foam them. Put tape or something on the inside of boot to protect them from being chipped by inside ski edge of the other ski.

Remember or imagine changing from leather to plastic boots (way back around 1970). Dodge boots are a more radical change, compared to normal high performance boots, than the switch from leather to plastic was.

I know that you have changed your fit system, so getting them through the mail might be better now, but with regards to my experience, I would say that the best thing to do would be to go to factory and get them fit.

I tell people all the time to make an appointment and go there and get fit . They will love them and bring them home.

“The boots do not have to be tight to perform well…light for hiking, stiff for hard snow conditions, perform without having to crank down the buckles, and surprisingly warm for coaching or lessons.”

For my money Dodge is the best ski boot you can buy. I have not used the current fitting system. Therefore I cannot comment on it. From reading about it, the current system is much improved from the one I used.

The Dodge ski boot is a top-line product, made for a discerning skier. It offers superb performance, incredibly low weight and is backed by a great team driven by high standards and quality. It is not inexpensive but it is worth every penny. It will improve your skiing ability and the amount of time you can spend on the slopes without fatigue.

They're light, precise and made respecting every different shape of feet. Very important direct line with factory producers.
Rob Harrison

Schweitzer Mountain Resort in Sandpoint, Idaho is my home mountain.
- Excellence
I got the boots and worked at padding the fit on the liner. When I sent the liners back to have a more professional padding job done, Bill said that I really needed the narrower shell so he swapped shells with me right away. At Mt. Hood over the 4th of July, the flex and performance of the boots stayed nice and consistent from the early morning hard surface through the noontime slush. Customer service, comfort and performance from the start- what's not to like?

I felt the difference right away. I felt the difference just walking around in them. I felt it on the chairlift. And, of course, a HUGE difference on my skis especially in my fore/aft alignment. Also, at the end of the day my knees, ankles and other lower joints all felt great.

They are a little more expensive to buy but when you consider the time you will own them before buying another pair of boots they are worth while. When you think about how much better you will ski it becomes a no brainer.
