Stellar II is the boot dedicated to all round ski mountaineers looking for the best mix of performance on the ascent, descent and comfort.

Its ease of fit and use also make it a boot suitable for newcomers to the world of ski mountaineering who are looking for a multi-purpose, high-performance tool. The internal shape is anatomical for perfect foot positioning and maximum comfort. The introduction of the BOA® fit system also provides exceptional precision in the fit and extreme ease of entry and closure of the boot.  The 68° cuff excursion allows for maximum mobility to move quickly and safely in any situation, while the patented SWING-LOCK™ ski/walk system makes it extremely easy to switch between uphill and downhill modes. Solar II is a comfortable, safe and fast ascent boot, performing and progressive descent boot.
