Any hard soled boot or plug boot.
Boots with Alpine (ISO 5355) replaceable soles on them. We will modify those soles and your boots for tech compatibility. Our standard conversion maintains ISO 5355 so your boots will test and function properly in all your alpine bindings.
Boots with Gripwalk (ISO 23223) replaceable soles on them. We will modify those soles and your boots for tech compatibility. Our standard conversion maintains ISO 23223 so your boots will test and function properly in all your alpine bindings that are compatible with Gripwalk soled boots. Please note we do have to modify the soles slightly to fit into our CNC machine.
Kids boots with ISO 5355 Type A soles. The A stands for an adult sole. These are generally kids boots mondo size 21.5 and bigger. Check the bottom of the boot to find these specs.
Common Boots we Modify are…Atomic Hawx, Dalbello Panterra or Krypton, All Full Tilt Boots, Tecnica Mach1*, Salomon Max* or Pro*, Lange RX, LX, or RS. We modify other boots as well; these are just the most common. *Older version of these boots might have a replaceable LUG that we cannot modify
We are now able to modify most boots that have a Gripwalk sole on them. Depending on the replacement Gripwalk sole we will have to modify the sole slightly to fit in our CNC Machine.
If you already have Cast converted boots and need replacement soles, please email us at cast@casttouring.com and we can put together an order to ensure you get the correct boot soles.
$60 for Cast stock replacement soles and custom Full Tilt soles. $90 for all other custom soles and GripWalk soles.
Any boot with a glued Vibram sole like older, non-tech AT boots, Telemark boots or Mountaineering boots.
Kids boots with an ISO 5355 Type C sole. The C stands for child sole. These boots are generally kids boots smaller than a 21.5 mondo size.
Boots where the whole toe lug comes off. A toe lug is where the whole toe comes off versus a replaceable sole. Some examples of these boots are boots from Salomon, Tecnica, or Black Diamond from around 2015 or older.

The Cast Boot Conversion is designed and will only work with the Cast Freetour Pivot/Freetour Upgrade Kit, Shift, or Marker Duke PT.
Our tech inserts are only designed to work for uphill travel. This means they cannot be used for downhill. Some examples of bindings our tech inserts do NOT work with would be the Marker Kingpin or Fritschi Tecton.
With the Purchase of a Pivot Freetour/Freetour Upgrade Kit you will receive a 30% discount off your Boot Conversion. Already purchased the Freetour...send proof of purchase to boots@CastTouring.com and we can send you a discount code to receive the 30% discount off the Boot Conversion.

We do offer all the parts for sale for you to convert your boots yourself. We do not recommend this as this is a very involved process. We have two videos below outlining the process. We highly recommend watching these videos before attempting to convert your ski boots. If you feel you can perform this modification yourself, please email us at boots@casttouring.com to place an order.
