What do you think of these boots? I can see what they're trying to go for but it doesn't work. Makes it looks like his stack height is insanely high.

I love how it kinda looks like there's nothing in the bindings and the top half of a ski boot is just floating above the bindings.

Could be a white sole boot and gives the illusion of a super stack height. That or he just got back from a sidecountry mission and forgot to take off his daymakers.

If you look closely you can see the soles are white, pretty funny illusion tho.

Dalbello




I think they're fresh as hell, at least compared to the usual radiated-piss-green associated with the brand.

Wow did not expect that, I agree though they look way better than the usual green.

Wow before i saw this pic i though geopper had some sort of platform ski boots going on. Being lifted off your skis by a binding platform is
so stupid. You want to be as low to the ground as possible.

I think making the boot all black or white would be better. Once they're on the snow the white skate shoe design gives off the weird illusion the stack height is several inches off the ground. Could just be the camera though.

Definitely the ugliest boot of 20/21. Full Tilt did a decent job at the shoe look with the old Twalls. Nailed the Timberland Twalls though.

Some people like a high stack height, like racers, because it gives more leverage for carving turns. But yeah for park it sucks

Yeah the attempt to make the sole look like a skate shoe definately did not turn out well

Looks like a moon boot. Guess dalbello are catering to the daddy’s little princess who can also dub 12 demographic. Should be profitable

The optical illusion in the original post makes it look weird but I love their design. They're designed after Vans. Reminds me of Valo skates:
