Description
The Nordica Speedmachine 3 85 W BOA GW 2027 Black/White/Pink ski boots are designed for recreational to athletic female skiers looking for comfort, control, and a precisely adjustable fit. With a flex rating of 85 and a medium last width of 100 mm, this women’s ski boot offers an accessible combination of support and freedom of movement. The BOA Fit System ensures an even fit around the forefoot, while the Tri Force Construction supports power transfer. Thanks to the 3D Performance Fit W PrimaLoft liner, Adjustable Cuff Profile, and Infrared Technology, this model is particularly appealing to skiers who want to improve their technique and have their ski boots customized to their individual needs.
Flex: 85
With a flex index of 85, this Nordica women’s ski boot offers relatively flexible to medium-stiff support. The boot bends forward smoothly, making it easier to build pressure when initiating a turn.
The Tri Force Construction ensures efficient power transfer and sufficient lateral stability. An interesting choice for female skiers who enjoy controlled skiing and are looking for a responsive boot without the resistance of a stiff racing boot.
Fit & Last Width: Medium Volume – 100 mm
The Speedmachine 3 85 W BOA GW has a medium fit with a nominal last width of 100 mm. This construction is particularly appealing to female skiers with an average foot width who are looking for a good balance between space and firm support.
The BOA Fit System helps tighten the lower shell evenly around the forefoot and instep. The anatomically shaped liner supports a stable fit around the foot.
Thanks to the Adjustable Cuff Profile, the fit around the calf can be adjusted. The final fit also depends on your instep height, heel shape, and overall foot volume. Furthermore, the specified last width varies depending on the Mondopoint size.
Closure System: BOA Fit System
The Nordica Speedmachine 3 85 W BOA GW features a single BOA Fit System on the lower shell. The dial allows you to precisely adjust the tension around the forefoot and instep without traditional buckles across the foot.
The system allows for fine adjustments and helps distribute pressure more evenly across the foot. This makes it easy to fine-tune the fit throughout your day on the slopes.
Two micro-adjustable aluminum buckles secure the cuff around the lower leg. A 35 mm Power Strap provides extra support at the top of the boot and enhances contact between your shin and the cuff.
Liner & Footbed: 3D Performance Fit W PrimaLoft
The 3D Performance Fit W PrimaLoft liner features an anatomically shaped construction tailored to the female foot. The liner provides support around the heel and ankle and can be professionally adjusted for a more personalized fit.
PrimaLoft insulation helps retain heat on cold ski days, while the Isotherm material contributes to moisture management and thermal comfort.
The combination of supportive materials and an adjustable construction makes this liner an attractive option for female skiers who prioritize comfort and a secure heel lock.
Shell & Cuff: Tri Force Construction
The Bimat PU shell and polyurethane cuff utilize Nordica’s Tri Force Construction. This combines three different material hardnesses to balance support, flexibility, and power transfer.
This construction works in tandem with the BOA Fit System to precisely encase the forefoot and maintain stable contact with the skis.
The Easy Entry Soft Flap makes it easier to put on and take off the boot thanks to more flexible plastic zones around the instep. With Infrared Technology, specific areas of the shell can be professionally and precisely adjusted to reduce pressure points.
The Adjustable Cuff Profile also offers additional options for fine-tuning the fit around the calf.
Sole & Binding Compatibility: GripWalk
The pre-installed GripWalk Extra-Grip soles provide extra grip and a more natural rolling motion when walking off-piste. The GripWalk sole system complies with the ISO 23223 standard.
These ski boots are designed for ski bindings that are explicitly compatible with GripWalk. Not all traditional alpine bindings support this type of sole. Therefore, always have the compatibility of your specific binding checked and have the binding professionally adjusted.
Level: Beginner – Intermediate
These Nordica ski boots are particularly suitable for beginner to intermediate skiers who want to further develop their technique and prioritize comfort.
The 85 flex provides sufficient support for controlled turns and an increasingly active skiing style, without feeling overly stiff. Experienced recreational skiers who prefer a more flexible ski boot may also find this model appealing.
For powerful skiers seeking maximum support at high speeds, a stiffer model may be more suitable.
Size Guide: Mondopoint & Fit
Choose your ski boot based on your foot length in centimeters, as expressed in Mondopoint. Your regular European shoe size is only a guideline.
With this medium Speedmachine fit, your forefoot width, instep height, heel volume, and calf shape are also important. The boot should fit snugly with sufficient heel support, without any uncomfortable pressure points.
A ski boot that’s too big can cause extra movement in your foot and reduce control. Therefore, don’t automatically choose a larger size if a new ski boot feels tight.
