Where to store your ski boots

The ideal storage place for ski boots is somewhere dry and cool; avoid the areas in your home that are prone to considerable temperature fluctuations.

It's essential to keep your ski boots away from radiators because direct heat can cause irreversible damage to the plastic shell and custom insoles. Harmful UV rays can also be detrimental to your ski boots over time. The plastics can start to fade and degrade if you leave them in direct sunlight for an extended period.

It's also best to avoid storing your boots in garages and sheds. They rarely have a stable temperature throughout the year, and they can expose your ski boots to nesting rodents.

We recommend that you use a ski boot bag to protect your ski boots while they're in storage. That will stop dust and other particles from collecting inside.
