2017 Salomon Quest Access 70, 80, and 90 Mens Boot Overview by SkisDotCom

www.skis.com/Salomon-Quest-Acc...
The Salomon Quest Access 70 makes a great ski boot for the true beginner to mellow intermediate that has a medium to wide foot, and medium to wide leg shape. The 24mm Oversized Pivot on the Quest Access 70 connects the upper cuff to the lower shell and directs power directly to the edges of your skis for additional control and edging power. Salomon's Ride and Hike Technology gives you a switch located on the back spine of the boot that can be flipped up to increase the amount of rearward mobility in the cuff to allow you easy walking though the plaza to the chairlift in the morning. The Quest Access 70 has the My Custom Fit Comfort Liner that has Woolmetal Insulation to keep your toes warmer on the mountain. Woolmetal is a blend of wool and metallic polyester that has fantastic insulating properties. The 104mm last of the Quest Access 70 accommodates all but the absolute widest of feet comfortably. Salomon's Easy Entry Overlap uses a softer plastic over the instep of the foot that allows your foot to slide into and out of the boot very easily. If you have a medium to wide foot shape and leg shape, and want a boot that will be easy to walk in, the Salomon Quest Access 70 will be a great option for you.

The Salomon Quest Access 80 is designed for the beginner to intermediate skier that has a medium to wide forefoot and medium to wide shaft of the leg. Salomon's Ride & Hike Technology has a switch located on the back spine of the boot that can be unlocked for you to have an easy walking ability for cruising to the gondola in the morning. The Quest Access 80 has a 24mm Oversized Pivot that connects the upper cuff to the lower shell that drives pressure to the edges of your skis for extra control, and even pressure distribution. The Quest Access 80 has a very convenient feature for skiers that have a larger leg shape. The Ratchet Cuff Buckle can adjust out to accommodate the widest of calves to keep you comfortable, but secure in your boots. Salomon's Woolmetal Insulation has a combination of wool and metallic polyester to keep you extra warm on those cold January days. The Quest Access Line has a 104mm last that is very accommodating for wide feet. The My Custom Fit Comfort Liner has a Thermoformable Layer in the tongue that can be heated to accelerate the breaking in process and a comfortable fit. If you are looking for a boot that will fit medium wide feet and leg shapes that will be easy to walk in, slide your feet into a pair of Salomon Quest Access 80's.

The Quest Access 90 is a great boot for the intermediate skier that has a medium to wide forefoot and a medium to wide leg shape. Salomon's My Custom Fit Sport Liner has Thermoformable material in the tongue and cuff that can be heated to accelerate the breaking in process for additional comfort. The Quest Access 90 has a 24mm Oversized Pivot that attaches the upper cuff to the lower shells, but more importantly directs energy directly towards the edges of your skis for consistent pressure, and efficient skiing. Salomon's Ride & Hike Technology allows you to walk very easily, as soon as you flip up the switch located on the spine of the boots. Skiers with larger legs love the Ratchet Cuff Buckle that can be opened up to accommodate the largest of leg shapes. If you need a boot that will be supportive, improve the amount of control you have, and has a wider fit in both the cuff and foot, the Salomon Quest Access 90 is the one you have been looking for.

i like new ones - X access 80 with 11.5 forward lean, which is great for me, dont need to lean so much, even don't need walk mode because 11.5 is good for walking

I'm just starting to learn to ski, and am a level 1 skier, and am now looking around to invest in my first ski boots after I've had a few lessons, so which Salomon boots do you recommend, I'm just about 5' 6" and am 166 pounds?

Like the look of these boots but I have always had a more traditional 4 buckle piste boot so am a bit unsure. I like the idea of a more relaxed feel because as I have got bit older my skiing has certainly got more relaxed - I am a confident parallel skier and can ski any run but am not so good off piste.

The different positioning of the cuff buckle still offers plenty of retention and rebound. You are not missing out on performance by only having three buckles with these boots. Without knowing any other specifics aside from how you described your skiing, you may want to consider a stiffer boot than a 90 flex though.

The width of my foot measures at 107 mm. But all I see is mostly boots with a 104 last. I did see a 106 last from HEAD. Is it even possible to buy a 107 mm last ski boot?

I am beginner intermediate skier and have a medium foot but a very skinny ankle and calf. Would the QST Access still fit good or what other boot should I try?

[@skisdotcom]

You should take a look at the Salomon S Pro series for a narrow fit in the ankle and calf. Take a look here.

Hows the instep for this boot?

[@skisdotcom]

Medium to high volume instep for the Quest Access Series.

[@galaxycupcake9258]

Is it for jibbing?

+Yolo PvP The Quest Access boots are more or an All Mountain boot that gives you easy mobility while walking. It would lack a little performance in the park or while skiing switch.
