There isn’t too much that needs to be done to look after your ski boots. They don’t need bases waxed or edges sharpened like your skis. You will, however, want to make sure that they’re dry every time you put your feet into them, and also when they go away at the end of the season. Maybe your lodge has a drying room, or maybe you pull the liners out of the shell after a long day skiing. Both are great options.

Wear and tear on your ski boots is normal, especially on the soles from walking on concrete. Keep an eye on how much this plastic wears down as it can affect how your ski boots interface with your ski bindings and potentially cause release issues. We carry a range of soles for most of the boots that we sell, though if your's aren't listed, let us know and we may be able to help out. If your boots are more than 10 years old, sorry to say, but I bet we can't get the soles and it may be time for new boots!

If you want to give your ski boots a home for the offseason you might consider using a ski boot bag to store them. Ski boot bags make transporting your boots a lot easier and will carry most of your accessory gear too. A bag like the Dakine Boot Bag 30L is the smallest option you’ll find and is quite popular for just Boots.Going bigger, the Dakine Boot Pack 50L and Burton Gig Boot Pack both can swallow your boots + a ton of gear and may be all that you need for a weekend trip away.

There's one last thing which is a non-negotiable with ski boot storage. You must buckle up your ski boots. They don't have to be under a huge amount of tension, but it's really important your ski boots are stored in the 'closed' position. They like to live in the shape that they're used.

Taking care of your ski boots ensures they stay comfortable, responsive, and durable for many seasons. Always dry them thoroughly after each use, store them in a cool, dry place, and regularly check for wear on the liners, buckles, and soles. Avoid excessive heat when drying, and keep the shells clean to maintain their fit and performance. With proper care, your ski boots will continue to provide the support and precision you need on the mountain.
