Lange Launches All-New Shadow Boot Range
Lange is proud to launch its most advanced boot ever, the 2023/2024 SHADOW boot range. The SHADOW range is designed from the ground up; infused with groundbreaking technology and Lange’s legendary ski boot DNA.
“Give me a long enough lever… and I shall move the world.” At Lange, innovation is in the DNA, and they’ve never stopped trying to move the world of skiing. They did it in 1962 when they introduced the first ever plastic ski boot, and they're doing it again now, with a boot born from the darkest corners of the deepest workshops. Years in the making, the Shadow uses breakthrough dual-pivot technology for greater leverage, creating a chassis that requires half the energy to drive. Power when you want it, stability when you need it, finesse at its finest. Ski better—the Shadow shines a light.
Powerful, responsive, and easy. No boot has ever offered the confidence and stability of the Shadow, and they don’t say that kind of thing lightly at Lange. It’s all about leverage. The Shadow’s breakthrough dual-pivot technology harnesses extended leverage for unparalleled liveliness and drive. Pair that with a bold, new liner that uses space-aged Auxetic foam for a flawless connection, and performance has never felt so comfortable.
Inspired by carbon plate running shoes or mountain bike suspensions, this system promotes performance and intensifies the sensation of ease. It supports precise, agile and committed skiing by naturally accompanying skiers in their movements, guiding their wishes. But it does not take their place. Leaving them free to savour the sheer pleasure of skiing. Its most radiant aspect.
SHADOW
More power and more control with less energy. The Shadow range brings a new level of power transfer, vibration absorption and comfort to all-mountain skiing. The Assisted Performance System amplifies your input to the boot through the mechanical advantage of Lange's Dual Pivot and Suspension Blade technology. The design boosts input by up to 26%, giving you more power and control with less energy. The boot's clean, consistent flex is combined with increased shock absorption through the shell for enhanced snow feel and contact. Like a full suspension bike, the combination lets you ski longer and more efficiently.
BOOSTED POWER TRANSFER
Lange’s Assisted Performance System amplifies your input into the boot through the mechanical advantage of our Dual Pivot and Suspension Blade technology for increased power transfer to the ski. The system boosts input up to 26%, giving you more power with less energy.
The Suspension Blade design connects the upper boot with the lower boot for smooth power absorption and transfer through the boot, putting more energy into your skiing.
Lange's Dual Pivot design creates a mechanical advantage for full boot engagement with less skier input, creating more power and control with less effort.
While the Shadow places the spotlight on pure performance, the boot's completely revolutionary liner works in the shadows as well, hidden from the inquisitive eye, yet rest assured built for comfort. Sewn in a single piece to avoid friction from seams, the result is a liner that is accurate but soft, while delivering a dynamic performance. Auxetic Technology lets the boot liner form to the shape of the foot in all three dimensions for uniform comfort that lets you ski all day. A one-piece liner with an asymmetrical toe box creates a uniform, pressure-free fit from the toe box to the cuff for the most comfortable fit possible. The new SHADOW range comes in 2 internal last sizes of 97 and 100mm
