What does the BOA system do on a ski boot?

The BOA dial replaces the lower buckle with a steel cable that wraps evenly around the forefoot. You spin the dial for micro-adjustable tightening — easier than buckles, especially with gloves. Release by pulling the dial out.

Is the sheep wool liner better than synthetic?

Yes for warmth and comfort. Sheep wool insulates when wet, breathes better, and conforms to your foot shape naturally. The trade-off is slightly slower drying time compared to pure synthetic liners.

Description

The Alltrack 80 BOA GW is Rossignol's all-mountain entry in the women's Alltrack line, built around an 80-flex shell that sits on the softer side of the spectrum — it bends without a fight, which is exactly the point for a boot designed to work across a full day of varied terrain rather than demand you ski in attack mode all the time. The shell uses Rossignol's Dual Core construction, where softer polyurethane is sandwiched between harder layers, giving you a flex that builds gradually rather than going stiff all at once. Entry and lower-foot closure run through a single BOA dial on the instep, which lets you dial in tension across the foot with one hand; two micro-adjustable cuff buckles handle the upper. The liner is thermoformable — heat it at the shop, step in, and it shapes to your foot's actual volume — and it's built with Thinsulate Stretch insulation and a sheep-wool construction that keeps warmth where feet lose it first. Walk mode is genuine: Hike Mode 2.0 unlocks 50 degrees of range at the cuff with a metal-on-metal latch, and the GripWalk sole (ISO 23223) grips pavement and snowpack instead of sending you sliding through the lodge. The women's-specific build matters here — shorter upper cuff, a tulip-shaped rear liner cutout that doesn't dig into the back of a narrower calf, and geometry tuned to a woman's center of gravity.

This boot is a solid fit for intermediate women skiers — blue runs, some blacks, all-mountain variety — who want a roomy, warm, easy-entry boot they can also walk around in. The 102mm HV last is the defining fit fact: if your foot is average-width or narrower, that extra space will let your foot move inside the shell and you'll lose precision and eventually develop pressure points from your foot shifting. Come get fitted; a 100mm or 98mm last at the same flex will serve a medium- or low-volume foot far better. Similarly, if you're a confident, strong skier who charges steeps and bumps regularly, the 80 flex will feel soft and vague under load — the Alltrack 90 or 100 in the same line will give you the response you need. But for a skier building confidence, skiing a few days a season, or prioritizing comfort and walkability on a wider foot, this is a genuinely well-engineered boot that won't punish you for it. Come in and we'll measure your foot and flex-test you before we put you in anything.

The Alltrack 80 BOA adds one key upgrade to the Alltrack Pro 80 W: a BOA Fit System on the lower shell. Instead of cranking a buckle with cold fingers, you spin a dial for precise, micro-adjustable pressure across the forefoot. The sheep wool liner is warmer than the standard Thinsulate liner in the Pro model, and the 102mm wide last with walk mode and GripWalk sole make it a versatile all-mountain option.

At $385 (vs. $350 for the Pro 80 W), the $35 premium buys you BOA convenience and a nicer liner. For women who value quick on-mountain adjustment and warmth, it's worth the upgrade.

Strengths

+BOA Fit System — micro-adjustable lower shell with gloves on
+Sheep wool liner is warmer and more comfortable than synthetic alternatives
+Walk mode + GripWalk sole for all-mountain versatility

Best For

Intermediate women who want BOA convenience, warm feet, and all-mountain walk mode in a medium-volume fit.

Limitations

−BOA cable is a potential (rare) failure point vs. traditional buckles
−$385 is a premium over the buckling-only Pro 80 W ($350)
−Flex 80 is still soft for aggressive skiers on steeps

Not For

Skiers who prefer traditional buckle-only closure, wide-footed women, or advanced skiers who need 90+ flex.
