The Best Ski Boots of 2026
Oct 1, 2025
Dalbello established itself in the ski boot world by creating some of the most dominating cabrio and two-piece boots on the market. For 2026, the brand is releasing its first double-BOA boot, dubbed the Veloce Space 130 Dual.Â
Last year’s model debuted with a single BOA closure on the lower shell. The top BOA dial posed an engineering challenge because the upper cuff handles significantly more force than the bottom half of the boot. Rather than using one cable that weaves between numerous eyelets, it employs two distinct cable systems, positioned where buckles are traditionally located. These cables join at one dial so they can be cranked to the same tension. In practice, this closure system delivers a more precise and snug fit around your foot than traditional buckles.Â
Beyond the BOA, this boot features a medium last and 130 flex. It also includes everything you’d expect from a premium downhill ski boot, including a quality liner and heat-moldable shell that enables more involved customization.
Note: This is last year's model and may have limited availability.
