Tecnica Mach1 LV 120 Ski Boots 2027

Bootfitter's Notes

Same shell shape as the Mach1 LV 130. Same outstanding low-volume fit. Real low-volume forefoot. True-to-size toe box. Improved instep shape over the previous generation, which means far fewer skiers need shell work right out of the box. Some people will say Tecnica added too much instep room—we disagree. We were creating more instep space in almost every previous-generation Mach1 LV we sold.
Where the 120 differs is in the details. The CAS dimples only extend through the ankle and midfoot, while the 130 gets CAS all the way to the toe. The liner is also a touch softer, creating a slightly roomier feel with less grip around the Achilles. It's subtle, but noticeable if you've skied both. Easier to settle into, a little less locked-in, and exactly what we'd expect from a 120-flex boot. Easy to get on and off for an LV boot, and one of our favorite low-volume fits on the wall.
