Head Advant Edge 85 X

The Advant Edge 85 X from Head is a ski boot designed for recreational skiers seeking a blend of comfort and support on the slopes. It’s aimed at those who want reliable performance without stepping up to race-level stiffness.

With a 102 mm last, this boot offers a roomier fit that can feel more comfortable for medium-to-wide feet, reducing pressure points during long days of skiing. The 85 flex rating brings enough responsiveness to help you carve turns confidently, while still remaining forgiving enough for less aggressive skiing. A high-volume shell further increases internal space, making it easier to find a comfortable stance and reducing hotspots around the instep and forefoot.

In ski-boot terms, the “last” refers to the internal width of the forefoot—102 mm here means a wider forefoot area. The flex rating (85) indicates how stiff the boot is when you lean forward: a mid-range value that balances support with some give. “High volume” simply means the shell and liner offer more overall internal room, accommodating foot shapes that need extra space without compromising control.
