AquaNovoBoot vs. Fischer Vacuum Fit

Made-to-measure or thermoform adaptation? An objective comparison of two routes to a well-fitting ski boot – and why AquaNovoBoot stands out for problem feet.

Both systems improve the fit considerably over an off-the-shelf ski boot – but they take different routes. Here we compare them objectively.

Two approaches – in brief

AquaNovoBoot is a patented made-to-measure system (invented by Albrecht Zeisler). Shell and inner boot are formed to your foot, tension-free, using air and water pressure – including an anatomical 3D custom insole. The result is an individually made boot that needs no further rework.

Fischer Vacuum Fit is Fischer’s thermoform technology: a selected Fischer Vacuum ski boot – shell and inner boot – is heated in store and adapted to your foot. It reshapes an existing production boot; the system is tied to Fischer Vacuum models.

The direct comparison

  • Principle: AquaNovoBoot = genuine made-to-measure of shell + inner boot · Fischer Vacuum Fit = thermoform adaptation of a production boot.
  • Brand tie-in: AquaNovoBoot = a standalone system with 6 models · Fischer Vacuum Fit = Fischer Vacuum boots only.
  • Inner boot: AquaNovoBoot = foamed custom inner boot · Fischer = thermoformable production inner boot.
  • Problem feet: AquaNovoBoot specifically targets pronounced problem feet (wide, narrow, high, bony growths, cold feet); for very pronounced foot shapes a pure thermoform adaptation tends to reach its limits.
  • Insole: With AquaNovoBoot an anatomical 3D custom insole from the silicone sand bed is included.
  • Time & guarantee: AquaNovoBoot in about 60 minutes, no rework, with a fit guarantee.

Which system suits you?

For many feet, Fischer Vacuum Fit too delivers a noticeably better fit than a standard boot. But if you want genuine made-to-measure – especially for pronounced problem feet – AquaNovoBoot goes further and gives you a fit guarantee. As the exclusive AquaNovoBoot dealer in Saxony we advise you honestly which route is right for your foot.
