2026 Dalbello Veloce Max 65 Women's Ski Boots

The 2026 Dalbello Veloce Max 65 W is a soft-flexing, women’s-specific ski boot designed for absolute beginners and casual recreational skiers. With a 103 mm last and an ultra-forgiving 65 flex, this boot offers maximum comfort and warmth in a lightweight, approachable package that makes learning to ski less intimidating and more enjoyable.

Why we like it:

It’s the kind of boot that gets first-timers hooked. Easy to use, warm from the start, and comfortable enough to make your ski days last longer.

Who it's for:

This boot is perfect for beginner women skiers or occasional cruisers who want something simple, warm, and super comfy. Its relaxed fit and gentle flex cater especially well to lighter-weight skiers or those with higher volume feet.

Highlights:

The 103 mm last provides ample space throughout the forefoot and instep, while the softer plastic construction makes both flexing and putting the boot on a breeze. Dalbello’s Instant Fit liner ensures comfort right out of the box, and its women’s specific shape offers better anatomical support in the cuff and liner. The four-buckle design with a power strap offers familiar adjustability in a highly accommodating shell, and the top two buckles can be repositioned to accommodate wider calves.

Things to consider:

At a 65 flex, this boot isn’t designed for speed or aggressive terrain. Intermediate or progressing skiers will likely want to bump up to a stiffer model as their technique improves.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Veloce Max 65 W runs true to size and works best for skiers with medium to high volume feet. The upper cuff buckles can be repositioned to provide more room for those with wider calves.
