Lange Shadow 85 W MV GW (Medium Volume, 100 mm last) are women’s all-mountain ski boots designed for skiers with average-width feet and skill levels ranging from beginner to intermediate.
Shadow has only one mission: to restitute in term of rebound, power and precision all the daily energy stocked by the skiers. For that, we coming into industry with the first assisted performance & suspension skiboots.
Assisted Performance, It's means get more out into what you putt in: less energy, more power out, more absorption, more comfortable skiing and better on-now contact feeling.
It's a mechanical advantage created by 2 innovations: dual pivot and suspension blade. Dual pivot: 1 leverage point and 2 pivot points putted far away from eachother, to create mechanical advantage, gonna get more you putt in the more you get out. emplify energy in power. engage the full lenth of the boot. Transmitting the power with less effort, it's assisted efficienct.
Suspension Blade: excellent connection between upper and lower cuff, to move together. Absorbing energy with no fix points. Really consistent clean flex.

An exact, comfortable 100mm last designed for skiers with medium volume feet or skiers seeking slightly less foot compression for increased all-day comfort.
Utilizing our revolutionary new process, both soft and rigid versions of the most responsive high-performance plastics are simultaneously injected and targeted to key areas of the boot. The result of this innovative new process creates our proprietary sandwich shell construction – DUAL CORE By sandwiching a softer plastic core within more rigid plastic, we are able to drastically enhance elastic tension. So as you drive and flex into your boots, DUAL CORE actively compresses and expands – harnessing potential energy to deliver explosive power, snap, and rebound. Imagine World Cup precision and response, easy entry-and-exit, and a new level of ski boot performance as reactive and dynamic as your own body. - Hard plastic is targeted to the areas that transmit power and energy to the ski. - Softer plastic is targeted to the areas that wrap the foot and lower leg.
Shadow is the first skiboot with an assisted performance & suspension system. This system, combined by two innovations: dual pivot and suspension blade, allow you to get more out into you putt in, it's an assisted efficiency. It's about transfer the power with less effort. W obtain 26% of rebound in more, using less human energy and phycical abilities.
On traditional boots on the market, you have a pivot point and two fix points very concentrated to each other. With the new shadow, you putt those fix points very far away from eachother, so create mechanical advantage, you emplify the energy in power. You will also engage the full length of the boot, nstead of concentrated part.
Mounted GRIPWALK® soles feature a thick rubber tread and convex toe profile, offering increased traction and more natural foot roll for enhanced hiking and walking comfort. Integrated stiff pads guarantee optimized power transmission and full Alpine release function. Alpine DIN soles also available, sold separately.
The suspension blade is an external blade, and the upper cuff comes in between. With this new innovation, we have an excellent and smooth connection between upper and lower, to move together. That get you more absorption and suspension but also more power energy into your skiing. The upper elastomere adjust the flex feel upper part of the turn and also the snap and rebound.
