For those looking for an affordable and reliable junior ski boot

The Alpina T5 Jr is a warm and easy-to-use cross-country ski boot for children and juniors. The anatomical footbed helps keep the foot stable, while the Thinsulate insulation provides warmth on cold winter days.

To find the right size, you should measure both of your child's feet. First of all, start with the foot length in millimeters and use the EU size as a comparison.

Size chart for Alpina T5 Jr.

How is the Alpina T5 Jr sized?

The T5 Jr has a comfort-oriented junior fit with an anatomical footbed and soft flex. There is no clear basis for the model being generally small or large. The child's measured foot length is therefore the safest starting point.

If the foot length falls between two sizes, you will normally choose the larger one. However, avoid buying several sizes too large to make the boot last longer. A boot that is too large will cause the heel to slip, which can cause chafing and impair the child's control over the skis.

Example: If the longest foot measures 182 mm, the measurement is between EU 28 and EU 29. Then normally choose EU 29.

How much growing space is needed?

A smaller growth gap is reasonable, but the child should still be able to keep their foot stable in the boot. Don't automatically choose an extra size if the recommended size already leaves enough room in front of the toes.

Check the fit again during the season as children's feet can grow quickly. If the insole is removable, the child can put their foot on it. The toes should fit within the edge of the sole, while leaving some space in front of the longest toe.

How to measure your child's foot

1. Put on the ski sock that will be used in the ski boot.
2. Place a piece of paper on the floor with the short side against a wall.
3. Let the child place their heel lightly against the wall and put weight on their foot.
4. Mark where the longest toe ends.
5. Measure from the edge of the paper to the marking in millimeters.
6. Measure both feet and start from the longest one.
7. Compare the result with the table and choose the larger size if the measurement is between two sizes.

It's best to measure your feet in the afternoon or evening, as they may be slightly larger than in the morning.

What socks should the child wear?

A thin or medium-thick ski sock made of wool or functional material is a good choice. The T5 Jr has Thinsulate insulation and does not normally need to be worn with multiple thick socks.

Double socks can create creases, pressure points and reduced blood circulation, which can in turn make your child's feet colder despite the extra thickness.

This is how the ski boot should fit

When the Alpina T5 Jr is the right size:

• the heel is kept stable without any obvious looseness,
• toes can move easily,
• the longest toe is not pressed against the front edge,
• the ski boot should hug the foot without painful pressure points,
• the child can bend the forefoot naturally in the ski step,
• The foot does not slide back and forth when the child walks.

Let your child walk and do some skiing-like movements indoors for 10–15 minutes. Don't just ask if the boot feels good – also check that the heel is in place and that the child can move their toes.

Which bindings fit the Alpina T5 Jr?

The Alpina T5 Jr has an NNN compatible cross-country ski sole. It can be used with standard NNN, Prolink and Turnamic bindings.

The ski boot does not fit the NNN BC, Rottefella Xplore, SNS or 75 mm binding systems. Always check the ski bindings before purchasing.
