Ski boots Fischer

In sport there are no trifles. This fully applies to the choice of ski boots. After all, no matter how professional a skier may be, incorrectly chosen shoes for skiing can turn the process from pleasant to painful, and the result of such a race will be deplorable.

The history of the brand with a world name began in the usual barn of the Austrian city of Reed. It was there that in 1924 the master of all trades Josef Fischer the Elder solved the problem of self-employment, starting to make carts and sleds, and a year later - skiing.

After 10 years, there was not enough room in the barn - Fisher’s company already numbered more than 30 people, and handmade skis sold out like hot cakes. In 1949, Fisher developed the first manual press and optimized production and molding, and in 64, the ski factory opened. At the same time, Egon Zimmerman arrives at the winter Olympics on Fisher products for victory.

In 1971, the Fisher family (and by that time it was already a family business) began to produce cross-country skiing. There is a constant search for new technologies and materials. And this is the secret of Fisher's success. At the beginning of the “zero” production of alpine skiing, and to them and ski boots.

In 2006, Fisher introduces Carbonlite - the lightest racing skis in the world (their weight is less than a kilogram), and in 2011, thanks to the VACUUM FIT technology, for the first time in the history of sports, it is possible to fully adapt the ski boot to the athlete's foot.

• Classic boots for skis. Light, soft.

• Ridge boots. High, with a hinge system of additional control of the ski.

• Combi. Combine the advantages of the two previous varieties. The softness of the soles of the "Classics" and height, as well as a removable hinge, from the "Combi".

“Fischer” is well aware that the level of training of the skiers is different, and therefore for each category produces something individual: athletes - Fischer RC 3 classic, Fischer RCS Carbonlite Skating. Skate skiers - Fischer RC3 Scate. Fischer combi, as the name implies, for combined skating.

Ski boots should be comfortable, lightweight and well-protected skiers from getting wet and cold. Determining the size, you should not expect that under the boot you will wear thick woolen socks. We need socks specially designed for skiing. They are sewn of "breathable" wear-resistant fabric.

Therefore, before choosing a ski boot, you must first purchase such socks. This can be done in any sports store. Try on the shoe then you can immediately on the toe. It is very important that the ski boots "do not press", do not rub and are not great.

It is also worth considering that during active sports, the amount of circulating blood in the body increases, more blood flows to the arms and legs, and they add a little in volume. Experts advise buying ski boots half the size larger than required.

When choosing shoes for a child, the “half as large” rule applies in 100% of cases. Additional insoles are attached to models for future champions of all sizes. This is done so that the child can first ride with two insoles, and then, when the leg grows older, one is taken out.

You can always buy branded bags and backpacks for sports shoes “Fisher” in sports shops. Pouches for flasks with water. And just a huge range of covers. Backpacks, bags and pouches are made of high-quality and waterproof polyester, most models have reflective elements that allow the skier to feel safe even in twilight conditions, in the dark and with limited visibility.

Numerous reviews of the Fisher ski boots can be found on the Internet almost everywhere - on the sites of reviews and on specialized forums of athletes - skiers. For the most part, they are not just positive, but enthusiastic. Those who once tried to ride in "Fisher", already, as a rule, do not change the brand.

Among the advantages noted that the shoes "Fisher" anatomically correct, tight and comfortable, "sit" on the leg. "As you stand on asphalt". That is how those who got up to ski in Fisher boots for the first time describe their feelings.

Experienced athletes say that these shoes are not cold, the legs do not get tired even after a long workout or long distance. In general, on the Internet, there are whole communities of professional testers of ski equipment “Fisher”, and each new model of skis or boots is under close scrutiny from actual conditions. Such tests are conducted by specialized sports publications and large networks of sports shops.

Among the various reviews, the red thread is the theme of the cost of Fisher shoes. Someone thinks it is high, someone is available, but all agree, without exception, “Fisher” are worth it. So how much do they cost?

The starting price for the most inexpensive Kombi models starts at 5,500 rubles. In the same price segment and women's "My Style" - from 6000 rubles. More expensive (albeit slightly) cost models for the classic style of riding. Fischer RC3 Classic S10313 "starts" from 7,000 rubles. The more professional the shoe, the more expensive it is.

According to experienced skiers, sometimes "let down" attachment. This usually happens after a couple of months of intense training. However, the manufacturer also provided for this, after all, it does not make silk for the young ladies, but the goods for people who win in extreme conditions, and all Fisher dealers have a perfectly functioning guarantee exchange system.

Wearing ski boots on a thick woolen sock can not.

In the care of ski boots, the main thing is to dry them correctly. Drying should be carried out carefully, 2-3 times a week, the inner layer (removable shoe) should be removed and dried separately. You can use electric dryers. Insole is recommended to handle antifungal composition.
