The main requirement for children's ski shoes is heat resistance. Boots should perfectly retain heat, remove excess moisture, so that the legs do not sweat. The correct orthopedic block, made taking into account all the structural features of an ever-growing foot, is of great importance. Boots must be durable.

All children's ski boots are divided into several types, depending on their purpose.

Designed for a leisurely, pleasant promenade along the track. As a rule, they are tightened with laces. But some models have Velcro besides laces. They perfectly fix the ankle and prevent snow from getting into the boot.

Skating style ski boots. Such boots have sufficient height, a cuff, which, ideally, should not pinch the ankle too much. Skating boots are tougher than their running counterparts. They are great for beginner athletes as well as professionals.

This type of ski boot is low in height and does not interfere with the mobility of the ankle. They usually have a flexible sole.These boots are most often purchased by professional athletes for cross-country skiing.

These are fairly tall ski boots that are equally well suited for both traditional skating and skating. The outsole is relatively stiff. Such boots are often optimal for amateur athletes and those who are just starting their way in sports.

Harder than their flat counterparts. Difficulties usually arise in the process of choosing ski boots for very young children - you need to take into account the stiffness index. Like ski boots, children's "alpine skis" are often sliding.
