When it comes to tech features, most skiers will find the Zero G Tour W offers everything they need for a day well spent in the backcountry. An updated mobility cuff system enables a substantial 55-degree range of motion walk mode. The double-blocking mechanism acts as a safety net to ensure walk mode operates for walking only and ski mode for skiing. Vibram soles and low-tech (pin-compatible) inserts kit you out fully for those uphill adventures.

Tecnica Zero G Tour W Fit

The Zero G Tour W’s 99m last places it in Tecnica’s ‘mid-volume’ boot category. For skiers with medium to slightly wider feet, this fit should provide enough room for a comfortable day of hiking in the backcountry, without too much space for blisters and boot-swimming. Tecnica also incorporates laces into the Zero G Tour W’s liner, which we love for the adjustable fit and additional support provided.

According to Tecnica, tiny dimples on the boot’s shell make their thermo-customisation process easier for boot fitters. There’s science behind it, but the short story is that the Zero G Tour W’s shell can be fully customised to your foot, which will come as a relief if you’re embarking on hours of hiking.

Who Is The Tecnica Zero G Tour W For?

Based on our calculations, we’d say the Zero G Tour W is made for 60% skinning and 40% skiing. If you only endure the uphill to charge down, there are sturdier boots out there (Tecnica’s Cochise being one of them). But for skiers who favour the upwards journey, the Zero G Tour’s light weight and backcountry-focused design (tech inserts, walk mode and Vibram soles are our key three) make it a great option.

With its solid 105 flex, we love the Zero G Tour for its inclusive feel, making touring and backcountry missions accessible to a range of mountain enthusiasts.
