The Tecnica Zero G Decoy Pro and Zero G Tour Pro are published with the same flex index (130), the same 99mm last, the same medium volume and the same four buckles. If you only read those lines, they are one boot. The spec table splits them in four places: weight, sole standard, forward lean and shell material.

Boot weight changes with shell size, and these figures are the single per-boot value each page publishes. Compare them with each other, not with a boot weighed at a different size.
Where they differ
Weight: 430g per boot. The Decoy Pro is published at 1,715g and the Tour Pro at 1,285g. The two share flex index, last width, volume and buckle count. Tecnica's Tour Pro liner listing names a C.A.S. Ultralight liner; the Decoy Pro's names a full C.A.S. liner.
Sole standard. The Decoy Pro carries a GripWalk sole (ISO 23223). The Tour Pro carries a Touring sole (ISO 9523). Both also carry tech inserts, which are a separate boot-side feature. The sole decides which bindings the boot can sit in on its own; the inserts decide whether a pin binding can hold it. Our guide to ski boot sole standards explains how ISO 5355, ISO 9523, GripWalk and MNC fit together, and backcountry binding standards covers the binding side.
Forward lean. The Decoy Pro is published at 15.5°, the Tour Pro at 14°, a 1.5° difference.
Shell and liner. The Decoy Pro shell is listed as PU and the Tour Pro's as Grilamid; both are C.A.S. shells. The Tour Pro liner listing includes Recco; the Decoy Pro's does not.
What matches
Flex index 130 on both. Both lasts are 99mm and both are medium volume. Both have four buckles, a walk mode and a 65° walk range, and both publish tech inserts. For fit, that means last width and volume do not separate these two boots. Flex index is also not a standardised measurement, so read it as a placement within Tecnica's line, as we explain in why flex ratings don't line up across brands. To check size, see how to measure your ski boot size.
The rest of the 2027 Zero G line
Four other Zero G boots are in the catalogue for 2027: the Zero G Tour Pro W (flex index 125, 1,180g per boot), the Zero G Peak (flex index 120, two buckles, 980g), the Zero G Peak Carbon (flex index 130, two buckles, 1,060g) and the Zero G Peak W (flex index 115, two buckles, 899g). All four are published with a 99mm last and medium volume.
What isn't verified yet
Neither boot has a verified MSRP or verified sizes on SnowSift. Tecnica lists sizes for both, but we don't show them until they're verified. A value is shown only when two separate reads of the manufacturer's own page agree on it. Here's how we match products and verify specs.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between the Tecnica Zero G Decoy Pro and the Zero G Tour Pro?
- On the published specs, the fit and flex numbers match: flex index 130, a 99mm last, medium volume, four buckles, tech inserts and a 65° walk range. What differs is weight (1,715g per boot for the Decoy Pro, 1,285g for the Tour Pro), sole standard (GripWalk, ISO 23223, against Touring, ISO 9523), forward lean (15.5° against 14°) and shell material.
- Do the Zero G Decoy Pro and Tour Pro have tech inserts?
- Both publish tech inserts. Tech inserts are a separate feature from the sole norm, so each boot carries them alongside its own sole standard. Our sole standards guide covers how the terms relate.
- Which sole standard does each boot have, and what bindings take it?
- The Decoy Pro is published with a GripWalk sole (ISO 23223); the Tour Pro with a Touring sole (ISO 9523). A binding has to list the sole on its own compatibility list. MNC (Multi Norm Certified) bindings are certified for alpine, touring, GripWalk and WTR soles, but check the manufacturer's list for the exact binding and boot before mounting.
- What do the Decoy Pro and Tour Pro cost?
- Neither Tecnica page lists a US price, so both show as not published. Tecnica lists sizes for both boots, but SnowSift has not verified them yet.
