Comfortable Ski Boot

Many people associate ski boots with sore and aching feet. Some people have stopped skiing because of their experience with ski boots. As ski development progresses, the need for a really stiff boot is disappearing. At least for the majority of people who do not ski through gates. More comfortable ski boots are now appearing on the market. Unfortunately, the boots that are available still look uncomfortable.

With my background as an engineer, I enjoy the challenge of solving technical problems and creating better products. Equally important is the appearance and identity of a product. The quality of a product is useless if its values and features cannot be expressed and communicated to the user. The aim of my degree project is twofold: to create a comfortable and more user-friendly boot, and that the boot will communicate these features.
