About this deal
Most just call these the Teko Ski Pro as the full name is too much. Teko is an incredible brand, making awesome products while being laser-focused on ensuring the lowest possible environmental impact. They run their factory in Italy on renewable energy, use recycled man-made fibres and blend these with chlorine-free, Bluesign certified merino wool.
Ski and snowboard boots and bindings are markedly different and therefore the layer between you and the boot can be distinctly different. The Wanderlust is a great option if you're not as focussed on slim performance but want something to take up a little volume in the boot and not be too long, but the Pro Performance is their top-dog for skiers and snowboarders, with just the right amount of cushioning in the shin, and around the toe and heel. Moisture management is top-notch, excellent fit and build quality, compression benefits, smell resistance Far from the spendiest on this list, the Bridgedale has a lot to say for itself. A contoured knit gives a precise fit, and the lightweight material is ideal for warmer days - or more energetic ones. Indeed, the extra breathability will serve well on touring expeditions and the like - the low weight will be a blessing too. A Tactel shin pad is baked in for reduced friction plus there are small micro-terry underfoot pads to soak up vibration, and (of course) a flat toes seam to prevent hotspots.
