The Envy story

The Envy Ski BootFrame was born from years of founder Chris Schroeder’s experience with foot pain while skiing, contrasted by the comfort he felt snowboarding. Recognizing that snowboard boots provide a warm, comfortable, and walkable fit, Chris aimed to design a solution that would allow skiers to enjoy these benefits without sacrificing performance. This is how Envy SnowSports became committed to eliminating the discomfort and pain caused by traditional, hard-shell ski boots.

The Envy Ski BootFrame is a revolutionary device that enables skiers to wear soft, warm snowboard boots while skiing. Its innovative design supports the flexibility and ease of snowboard boots, giving skiers the stability they need for top performance on the slopes. This invention transforms the skiing experience by removing the common pain associated with hard ski boots, allowing users to focus on enjoying their time on the mountain.

After years of development and refinement, Chris perfected the Envy Ski Frame, offering skiers of all levels a pain-free, enjoyable day on the slopes without the cold, aching feet that often accompany traditional ski boots.
