HEAD Advant Edge 75, 275 review

A beginner’s boot sold on four sentences of benefit and one number hidden in the size.

The bottom line An honest beginner’s boot whose specification is four benefits and a trade name.

What the seller puts in writing

Four sentences, and all four are about how it will feel:

  • a perfect entry into skiing, with surprisingly high control
  • easy entry and a Comfort Liner
  • Power Efficient Design with Hi-Top Tech and Duo Flex, transferring energy to the ski
  • less effort, more rebound

What is behind the names

Nothing published. Hi-Top Tech, Duo Flex and Power Efficient Design are the maker’s own terms, and the listing does not attach a figure to any of them.

The one number in the whole listing is 75, and it is in the model name rather than in a specification line.

The size, read correctly

275 is Mondopoint 27.5: a foot of 27.5 cm. It is the same convention as the Lange at the top of this shelf, which writes it 28.0-28.5, and as the Fischer, which writes it MP24/24.5.

Three ways of printing the same measurement, on one shelf.

What is missing

The last width, which decides whether this boot can be comfortable on a given foot, and the sole standard, which decides whether it goes into a given binding.

Availability

One check, 168 € at the bottom and 190 € at the top, across the German and French Amazon shops.

On the shelf, off the market: the British, Italian and Spanish Amazon shops carry the reference with no seller attached to it.

An empty answer from the American Amazon shop: the buy button there opens a search instead of a blank page.

The declared figures, and where they run out

Strengths

  • Names its liner, which four listings here do not
  • Openly a beginner’s boot — "the perfect entry into skiing" — rather than a race boot sold to a beginner
  • Listed in five markets

Compromises

  • The size is written 275, which reads as a shoe size to anyone who has not met Mondopoint
  • Hi-Top Tech, Duo Flex, Power Efficient Design: three maker’s names, no measurement behind any of them
  • Priced in Germany and France only at the time of reading

The two closest on price

Same category, nearest budget — what else the same money buys.

Questions asked about this one

Is 275 a shoe size?

No. It is Mondopoint 27.5 — a foot 27.5 cm long — with the decimal point dropped. A European 27.5 shoe does not exist; a European 42 or 43 foot is roughly this length. Measure the foot rather than converting the shoe.

What is Duo Flex?

A name HEAD gives to part of the shell design. The listing associates it with transferring energy to the ski and with rebound. No figure is published, so this page reports the name and not a performance.

Is a flex 75 enough?

For an adult learning, usually yes — a soft cuff lets the ankle bend, which is how a beginner steers. The listing never prints the 75 outside the model name, so treat it as the maker’s naming rather than as a stated specification.

Who this one is for

A first pair for an adult skiing a week a year, bought on comfort rather than on stiffness
