I started cross-country skiing with my kids this year and we all love it. They would rather go Nordic skiing than Alpine skiing. It somewhat breaks my heart, but when I see how much fun they’re having scooting along the trails, it’s hard to get upset. Getting their gear dialed was pretty easy, and much like Alpine skiing, the boots are really important. The Alpina TJ Junior cross-country ski boots will fit the bill for your little Nordic skier really well. They have a good anatomic footbed to add some stability and security to the process, as a lot of young skiers can feel that loss of control, especially if they’re coming from an alpine boot. This helps new and young skiers a lot, and makes the whole experience more enjoyable. In addition, from a performance perspective, the Alpina TJ junior cross-country boots have an internal lacing system that’s got a zip-up cover, and this does a few things. First, it allows you to get a proper cinch on the laces, as I realized this past week was very important, especially for my youngest. Her boots are a smidge big, so it’s helpful for her heels to get them tied tight without coming loose. Second, it keeps the snow out, which sounds obvious, but it makes a big difference, especially if you spend a few hours out there. The ankle strap is a great touch, and adds another level of performance to the equation. Compatible with NNN bindings, the Alpina TJ junior cross-country ski boots are a fantastic choice for emerging Nordic enthusiasts.
