Fischer Transalp Carbon Pro Boot
With the Transalp Carbon Pro, Fischer's history of boot-making prowess is on full display. Billed simply as a “touring boot”, we find the Transalp Carbon Pro defies this simple categorization. Is it an uphill machine? Is it a powerful boot with impressive downhill capabilities? Is it...both? Using a Carbon infused cuff, Fischer builds upon their popular Transalp Pro, creating a boot that allows you to confidently ski demanding terrain far off the beaten path. The beefy Double/Lock Ski Walk Mechanism provides a solid connection between the cuff and lower for plenty of support while remaining simple enough to operate with a single, gloved hand. A full rubber outsole ensures non-slip performance in kitchens and extra security on dicey ridge walks. Dial in the fit with the adjustable forward lean and a customizable liner. Snap the buckles, crank the burly power strap, and point ‘em! Don’t hold back, this boot sure doesn’t!
- CARBONFUSED cuff is lightweight and stiff, providing a powerful and confident skiing platform.

Questions & Reviews
Both are correct! Ski boot lasts are listed based on a reference size. Last widths go up ~2mm for every mondo size. This is because feet get wider in proportion to their length! So a boot with a stated last of 100mm (at reference size 26.5) has a last of around 106mm in size 29.5.
In general, this boot is a medium fit, and not super high volume. If you'd like to discuss boots that might fit you better, please fill out our online boot fitter boot fitter and we can chat!
I spoke with Jeff of Skimoco, and he said that the cracking issue from the previous iterations has been remedied. However when I called Fischer and they told me what seems like inaccurate information about the lower plastic being new for this model, which is not the case, as the lower is the same pebax...
Hoping to hear from heavy users!
Or, to be much more specific, I have a pair of BC Solis 180 with Kingpin M-Works bindings and Lange XT3 130 boots that I am absolutely in love with
I'm interested in putting together a lighter setup that also walks better. I am considering the two TransAlp Pro boots (carbon and regular) and want to be able to drive a ski that is lighter than, but otherwise very similar to, the BC Solis 173 with Trab Vario 2.0 bindings. Which boot would you recommend?
If the Transalp Pro is a 110, I would call the Carbon Pro a 115-120. It's a bit stiffer, but not tremendously so. Not as stiff as the Lange XT3, Dynafit Hoji, etc. But the flex is nice and progressive in both models. The Carbon Pro just firms up a little more, a little quicker.
I think you could use either boot with the 173 Solis or a lighter ski and the Vario bindings. The Carbon Pro is a little heavier, but if you like a stiff boot it might have the edge for you.
It's worth noting that the Transalp has a different fit than the Lange XT3. If you'd like to discuss fit or go more into depth with other models, email us at help@skimo.co!
The CarbonFused material is a good bit stiffer then the Pebax cuff, but won't make for a significantly stiffer forward flex. And I double checked the weights, the Carbon Pro is a few grams heavier.
