TECHNICAL INFORMATION

EXPERIENCE

The Head Edge LYT 80 shoe is the perfect equation of comfort, control and lightness. Featuring the new SmartFrame construction, it is 20% lighter than the previous generation. This structure also provides a dynamic rebound effect that optimizes performance for skiers of all levels.

HOOK ADJUSTMENT

This shoe features 4 sturdy aluminum micro-metric hooks. You can adjust the length of the buckle by screwing or unscrewing the hook. The top hook has 3 positions to suit all calves. A wide adjustment strap at the top of the stem provides powerful, easy tightening of the upper shell.

What is FLEX?

To give an indication of the shoe's rigidity, brands define a flex index for each shoe. The higher the value, the stiffer the shell. A flex of less than 60 is considered suitable for beginners. A flex of 60 to 80 is for experienced skiers. Beyond that, products are aimed at experts. However, larger skiers can move up a level.

How to adjust your Flex?

The Edge LYT shoe from Head features a Flex adjustment. This is adjusted at the back of your shoe using the supplied allen key. Simply turn counter-clockwise to make your shoe more forgiving, and vice versa to make it stiffer. Make sure you always reproduce the same setting on both shoes.

How do you know if the shoe you're trying on is the right size?

Once the foot is in the shoe, close the hooks halfway. Can you go any further? This means that the shoe's volume doesn't suit you. Once your shoes are closed, perform 3 large flexions by pressing hard on your shins (put your hands on your knees) to move your heel back into the shoe. Stand up straight: you should be able to touch the tip of the shell. When flexing, your foot should move backwards and you should no longer be able to feel the toe.

What to do about foot pain

1- Choose a thin, technical ski sock to avoid pressure points and promote blood circulation in the foot.
2- Choose a sole adapted to the shape of your foot to prevent it from crushing against the shell. Ask a sales clerk for advice.
3- If, after two days on the slopes, you still feel uncomfortable, thermoform your boot.

Is my liner thermoformable, and what is the purpose of thermoforming?

The liner of the Head Edge LYT 80 shoe is made of 100% thermoformable foams, which can heat up to take the shape of your feet and the shell of the shoe. This enhances foot-insole-shell compatibility, reducing discomfort points.

How do I store my ski boots?

1- Aerate your shoes by removing the liner inside the plastic shells.
2- Close the hooks at the first notch to prevent the shoes from deforming and, if possible, store them in a cover.
3- Store them, if possible, in a dry place where the temperature is unlikely to fall below 10°C. The shoe's plastic will thank you!
