Fischer is well known for producing some of the best race equipment on the planet. Most likely their race background is the reason they developed a hike mode that doesn't sacrifice any on trail performance. Unlike most hike modes the Ranger 11 has Hike/Ride/Lock, competitors just have Hike/Ride. The Lock feature locks the upper and lower cuff together similar to how race boot shells are connected. Skiers that use the Ranger 12 will have more adjustability for varying snow conditions and terrain. Other than having a killer hike mode, the out of the box 101mm lasted boot has the ability to shrink or stretch from 96 - 106mm when vacuumed. The boot fits very well out of the box but for skiers that have a super narrow or wide foot, don't worry we can make this boot work for you.
The picture doesn't do the boot enough justice, it looks way sicker in person.

Vacuum Fit - Fischer's Two Zone Vacuum Fit gives the ski boots a 100% custom fit that provides you with maximum performance. The two separate vacuum zones offer a unique boot fitting experience. During the vacuum process, the pressure to each zone is separately controlled allowing for an exact fit to the entire forefoot, ankle and lower leg. No ski boot manufacturer on the planet can offer such customization and guaranteed performance.
Vacu-Plast - This shell technology allows the entire ski boot to be custom moldable. Using Fischer's two zone vacuum process this boot shell will adapt, shape and contour to the anatomy of your foot, ankle and lower leg.
SOMA Tec - Fisher designs their shells to allow your feet to naturally sit inside the ski boots. By having your feet in a more natural "V-Position", you're able to maximize power transfer and have more precise control. It also helps minimize ski fatigue.
