Black Diamond Trance Telemark Ski Boot - Women's

Item #BLD1304 | 12 in Stock

Small

By Ranked #355 - Telemark Ski Boots March 30, 2009

These are very nice boots. I've used Scarpa before, but never really had a boot that was comfy. The Italian boots are way too narrow for my feet.
BD's are a totally different story, they are very comfy and wide enough for my northern european feet. Lots of nice details on them too.
They are a bit soft though, I use them for both going up and skiing down wich they are nice for. But if you want to ski agressively in the piste I would not recommend them.

They are very small. In both shoe size and actual size. I use MP 24 in Scarpa and 23,5 in Garmont. But these I have in 24,5.
And they are very short too. My bindings are Rotefellas Chili which both Scarpa and Garmont fit nicely in. But BD are too small, the cables are too long (even the shortest version), and I actually had to buy some new bindings because of this. Not all bad I have to admit, but an unexpected expence none the less.
