With the latest version of the Blanca, Apex rip up the rule book on making ski boots and seriously challenge the traditional brands when it comes to performance and comfort. Their unique system of stiff frame and separate walkable boot set them apart. The frame provides the rigidity, power and precision for skiing, as well as adding customisation through adjustable lean and flex. The walkable boot has a 2 Boa system for an even closure and a heat mouldable liner for the best fit. Step in and ski; step out to walk more comfortably than in any plastic boot.

Overview
Fit
Feels surprisingly snug, provides firm heel and ankle hold with a medium width on the forefoot. Adjustable instep and rachet straps give flexibilty for height over the instep.
Shell
Open Chassis. This is a totally unique design that, unlike traditional full shell plastic boots, is just a frame. In addition to the comfort this can provide, it also offers a customisable flex that is independent of fit, along with superior stability and precise edge control, plus an adjustable flex-arm with four forward lean positions. The lateral stiffness of the chassis and cuff provide a direct connection to your skis, providing powerful energy transmission and precise control.
Liner
Custom Fit, mouldable. A high-quality liner is critical to any ski boot. The Apex Custom-Fit liner can be heat moulded and fitted to meet your individual needs. Combined with the Walkable Boot, the Apex boot liner provides added warmth and comfort to enhance your ski experience. Uses an expanded neoprene toe-box for added comfort.
Key Features
Walkable Boot
Snowboard boots have always featured a soft exterior and comfort that no ski boot could offer. Snowboarders could perform all day on the mountain, and then walk around at the end of the day in the same boots and never worry about loosening them up. The Apex Walkable Support Boot provides the comfort and warmth of a snowboard boot that you can ski in all day long. Separable from the Open Chassis, the Walkable Boot provides a full-traction outsole for getting to and from the mountain in comfort and safety and 360-degree support without pressure points thanks to two separate Boa zones and 14 points of closure. Locks into the Chassis for a solid connection to your skis.
Boa Fit ClosureApex design incorporates the game-changing Boa reel and stainless steel cable lacing system to provide precise control by locking your foot firmly into the heel pocket. This is a powerful, lightweight closure system with micro-adjustability to create a glove-like fit where adjustments can be made quickly on the fly.
