Raceborg Alpine Touring Boot

The Raceborg Boot is La Sportiva's ultimate ski racing boot built ultralight and surprisingly stiff. It gains a low weight-to-high stiffness ratio with a complete carbon cuff attached to La Sportiva's burly CavoBike Lever Pro walk mode. In walk mode, the Raceborg boasts an incredible 75° range of motion for a speed-oriented performance. Locked in, the Raceborg is surprisingly stiff to keep you moving on the downhill.


La Sportiva shaped the Grilamid's shell with a wider 100mm last for an extremely comfortable fit so your toes can splay, or you need to layer on a cold day. Designed specifically for the Raceborg, the "bikini" liner has a unique two-piece construction to stay as slim as possible for race day. The Race Grip sole is outfitted with tech inserts for ultralight bindings.

A Real Race Boot

Familiarity:
I returned this product before using it

This is a terrific boot, light as a feather. What the designers went through to lower the weight on this boot was a lot of genius, very innovative and creative solutions. Fit is very good and comfortable, all in all, a terrific boot. However, this is not mis-named, it is a race boot. It is designed to race in, not for everyday training use. I don't race anymore, so I wanted an everyday boot that was light, but some of the compromises made on this boot have been done with light weight in mind, not durability. Also, I wanted a boot to use for long treks, days from the trailhead. This boot is not that boot. There are things that could, with a lot of use, fail, and, on a long trip, that would be a real headache. None of this is meant as a criticism, the title says "race boot" and that's what they are. Truth in advertising. I don't have any complaints about the boots themselves, they are purpose built and I believe they will get the job done!

Light, Stiff, Articulate and Comfortable

The raceborg is my go to boot for skimo races and uphill cardio any day of the week! With the carbon cuff and a new shell shape, the Raceborg is lighter, stiffer and more comfortable that the Syborg! While it's a step up in price from the Sytron (Also an awesome boot), it's totally worth it for the range of motion and the increased performance. Obviously, Ski boots have so many technical features that I could write a novel about these... Instead, I'm going to go ski, because these boots are great!
