Ski boots have come a long way in the last few seasons, with new fit systems, BOA technology, and fresh takes on classic designs changing what we expect from a day on the mountain. For 2027, we've organized our lineup around three of the biggest ways you'll see that evolution: single BOA, dual BOA, and traditional four-buckle boots. Whether you want quick, precise adjustments, a fully dialed-in fit, or the tried-and-true feel of a four-buckle setup, there's a lot to get excited about. We've narrowed down a few of our favorites from this year's lineup that we're especially stoked to get into—and even more excited to ski.
Single BOA
Atomic Nexus 95 BOA
Let's put it straight—getting into ski boots has never been the best part of skiing. Atomic's Nexus 95 BOA takes a different approach, combining an easy-entry design with the kind of supportive, responsive feel you'd expect from a traditional performance boot. The secret is NexStep Construction, which lets the back of the boot open wide with a quick flick of the QuickFlip lever. Step in, close it up, and you're ready to go. A 95 flex and front-overlap construction keep things plenty responsive once you're on snow, while the 101mm higher-volume last gives your feet a little more room to breathe. Then there's BOA, which lets you fine-tune the fit around your foot with small, precise adjustments. Add a heat-moldable Mimic Silver liner, adjustable lower-leg volume, and shell customization, and the Nexus gives you endless ways to dial in a fit that actually feels like yours. It's comfortable enough to make first chair less intimidating and capable enough to keep up when the skiing gets serious. In other words, the Nexus isn't trying to make a ski boot feel less like a ski boot—it's trying to make the whole experience a lot easier. The takeaway: Less hassle. More skiing.
Double BOA
Salomon S/Pro Supra Dual BOA 105
Like they always say: A great ski boot should feel like an extension of your foot—not something you're constantly battling. The Salomon S/Pro Supra Dual BOA 105 takes that idea very seriously, giving you two independent BOA dials to fine-tune the fit from the cuff down. One dial controls the upper cuff while the other wraps the lower shell around your foot, letting you adjust the fit exactly where you need it. Tighten the cuff for more support when you're pushing hard, ease up on the lower shell when your feet need a little breathing room, or make quick adjustments as conditions—and your feet—change throughout the day. Underneath it all, Salomon's ExoWrap construction works with the BOA system to distribute pressure more evenly and keep your heel and ankle locked in. A 100mm last, customizable shell, and heat-moldable liner give bootfitters plenty of room to fine-tune the fit, while the 105 flex delivers the support you'd expect from a serious all-mountain boot. The result is a boot that feels precise without feeling overly restrictive. Whether you're carving hardpack, dropping into the trees, or chasing fresh snow, the Supra Dual BOA gives you more control over the fit—and more control over your skis. We'd call that a pretty solid boot.
Four-Buckle
Atomic Remedy 130
Unlike some of the other boots we call out in our 2027 Gear Guide feature, the Atomic Remedy 130 is designed to make you want to push harder. Atomic borrowed heavily from its World Cup race-bred DNA, then reshaped it for freeskiing. The result is a stiff, precise 130-flex boot with the power and stability to drive big skis at speed, while a more progressive flex and ShockStopper construction help smooth out rough snow, hard landings, and everything in between. The 96mm low-volume shell delivers a close, responsive fit, while the Competition Elite liner and four-buckle closure keep your heel locked down and your inputs connected directly to the ski. There's no unnecessary fluff here—just a solid, powerful platform for skiers who know exactly what they want from their boots. It's the kind of boot that feels right when you're railing a groomer at speed, dropping into steep terrain, or putting a big freeride ski to work in deep snow. If you're the skier who tends to find the limit and then wonder what's on the other side, the Atomic Remedy 130 is built for you.
