- How Nordica’s Single-Click HF Boot Is Carving Trails in the Snow
Nordica is a name that almost every skier is familiar with – and that’s because the brand has been present on the slopes for decades, crafting performance gear and equipment as far back as the 1930s. Founded by Adriano and Oddone Vaccari, Nordica started life by designing leather boots for mountain trekkers in the Dolomites. It wasn’t until ten years later that the brand infiltrated the ski market with boots for pro-athletes, including Olympic gold medallist Zeno Colò. Ever since, it has been pushing innovation in ski footwear to suit all levels of skiers. At the center of Nordica’s blueprint, though, is the HF boot. As its name suggests, the boot is modelled around hands-free wearability with a unique single click rear entry system and ergonomic design that became favoured over the traditional four buckle boots. Today, the HF boot lives on in a variety of iterations. After its introduction six years ago, the brand has supercharged its technical design, keeping ease of access and comfortability at the forefront of every advancement. The entire HF Collection encompasses this new-age makeover with double-axis pivot support and a custom cork liner and PrimaLoft® padding that adds to key insulation. As skiing becomes increasingly accessible, with more than just mountain inhabitants and athletes taking up the sport, Nordica’s HF boots continue to serve as a staple in every ski uniform. Taking the stress out of footwear with one single click, they allow you to focus on what really matters – carving trails in the fresh mountain snow. Take a look at the latest collection on HF boots in the gallery above. To discover Nordica’s assortment of ski gear and footwear, head to its website now.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
