Ski boot footbeds are inserts (orthotics) molded to bring the load bearing parts of the foot in sync with the gravitational force of the skeletal system.

How to decide if you need custom footbeds, how foot beds are measured and made, and my experience getting fitted for ski boot footbeds.

4. Footbeds for Telemark and Alpine Touring Boots

Mike Doyle
Both telemark and AT boots are just as accommodating to custom footbeds as downhill boots. I firmly believe that all skiers from recreational to professional cannot pay too much attention to their boots and how their boots affect their skiing.
