Hot Dog. A boot with continuous flex. Raichle designed a three-piece shell, unlike the two-piece norm still common today. Bold colors, swappable parts, and a cult following. The molds live on in Full Tilt and Roxa. Dalbello uses a similar Cabrio design. 

Photographed with a 4x5 large format film camera, this series pays homage to analog craftsmanship — both in photography and in alpine design. The use of film was intentional: a nod to the era of the boots themselves, and a way to capture every buckle, stitch, and curve with unmatched detail, depth, and clarity. Each boot was photographed once, then reimagined in post-processing to create a set of four distinct looks. One version in black and white strips the image down to its essential form —highlighting style, build, and texture. The other three explore color, creativity, and contrast in bold, pop-art-inspired treatments. Like skiing itself, this series embraces freedom and personal expression—celebrating the individuality, flair, and spirit that define the sport.
