Salomon SPK Pro Model Ski Boot - Men's
Review Title
By Matthew Falcinelli

Great boot. Real comfortable fit. I had a store rep tell me that the last is actually 100, not 98 as posted here on the site. I almost went with the Full Tilt Seth which is a 98 last, but it was a bit too snug. The SPK was much better and more comfortable, for my foot. There are gel pads under the heel too, which helps with the hard landings and also makes walking in them more bearable. I just added custom foot beds and can't wait to go back out. If you need a ton of customization with this boot, I'd recommend going with another boot. Due to the way its constructed - leather and thin plastic - there's not much to play with. But if it fits you right off the bat, then you're going to have happy feet!!

Actually at Salomon, we use our 98 last for the race boots and Ghost and Shoguns only in the Freeski segment.

Hi Falci, The SPK is actually a 104 last, not a 100. And to compare, the Ghost is a 98.

I disagree. I heated mine up in the shop and after only around 5 hours skiing over two days they are already starting to feel great. There is also the footbed that can be removed as can the red padding at the back of the boot that can be removed (it is stuck on with velcro).
