Tecnica Mach1 LV 130 Ski Boot - 2026 - Men's Icon Orange, 25.5

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""The Mach1 130 LV has been my daily driver this season, and the updates are a huge step forward. The T-Drive 2. 0 spine gives incredible responsiveness without feeling blocky, and the Quick Instep makes entry and exit so much easier than most LV boots. It’s powerful, precise, and surprisingly comfortable for a 98mm last."" For skiers who demand uncompromising power and precision, the Tecnica Mach1 LV 130 Ski Boot continues its legacy as one of the most trusted high-performance boots on the mountain. With a stiff 130 flex and a low-volume 98mm last, it’s engineered for advanced and expert skiers who need maximum control at speed without sacrificing comfort. Tecnica’s T-Drive 2. 0 spine is the standout update, providing independent reinforcement on both the medial and lateral sides for a stiffer, more reactive feel that still allows natural flex. The CAS shell and liner deliver a customizable fit, while the Quick Instep softer plastic insert eases entry and exit—something every LV skier can appreciate. A lightweight construction at just under 2000g keeps energy high without sacrificing downhill stability. On snow, the Mach1 130 LV feels precise, energetic, and connected, pairing best with freeride and all-mountain skis that demand responsiveness. GripWalk soles, a four-buckle closure, and a cam-style power strap round out a boot that’s as polished in fit and finish as it is aggressive in performance."
