As any true backcountry skier will tell you, traveling safely in the backcountry sometimes requires a few compromises. They’ll also tell you that those compromises should never include your gear — and your boots are no exception. For far too long, touring skiers have had to choose between lightweight boots and high-performance boots. We’ve had enough of that.

Weighing just 1,320 g, with a 55-degree range of motion and a 4-buckle overlapping shell design, the Zero G Tour Pro 130 is a genuinely ultralight touring boot that blends uphill efficiency with downhill power. A Grilamid shell and co-injected carbon fiber cuff deliver unmatched downhill performance for a touring boot, all while keeping the weight low so you can go farther and push harder.

Minimal resistance on the way up, maximum confidence on the way down: the Zero G Tour Pro is the boot of choice for some of the world’s most accomplished ski mountaineers. Suddenly, those mountains on the horizon don’t seem so far away.
