REAR ENTRY SKI BOOTS ARE BACK! After nearly 30 years from their heyday, Nordica has brought back the rear entry ski boot.

Our HF boot is specifically designed for those who want to keep skiing. Stepping in and out of the new HF boot is as easy as sliding in to your favorite slippers. Never before has performance brought so much comfort. – Nordica

This is no question that Nordica is gonna sell scores of these boots to the cult-like following of skiers who still hound eBay for an old pair of Solomons SX 91’s.

The convenience and comfort of rear-entry boots have never been in question, but the performance was never as good as an overlapping shell boot. The question now is whether modern materials can provide enough performance that skiers will embrace them.
