The visually small ski boot was also light, warm and comfortable, and since it was made with a stiffer plastic, it skied nicely when conditions were good. It was also sensitive, probably due to the rigid plastic used unlike most boots built with a more flexible plastic. But it was the stiffness that made the boot enjoyable to ski in. The Scott boot took some getting used to, but of the dozens of boots I’ve worn over the decades, I still fondly remember my Scotts.
