Fischer's been putting Nordic athletes on podiums for as long as anyone cares to remember, but that doesn't mean the company only makes mean race boots for elite athletes. The Fischer RC5 Skate Boot, for example, is a friendlier, more comfortable boot that's perfect for skiers who want to push themselves but aren't willing to sacrifice comfort. It's easy to dial in the fit of the RC5, thanks to its heat-moldable liner and form-fitting Speed Lock lace system, and you won't get cold or wet with Thinsulate, a sealed zipper, and a waterproof, breathable Triple-F Membrane wrapping your foot. There isn't even a need to keep your boots triple-sealed in plastic bags when you're driving home, because Fischer gave the RC5 a Cleansport NXT antimicrobial treatment to keep them smelling as fresh as a snowy morning.
