K2 Orton Snowboard Boots - Men's

Sage Kotsenburg Miiiiight Be A Genius... It started with an idea. Our snowboard boot scientists approached K2 Snowboarding Team Rider Sage Kotsenburg with a new concept on snowboard boot construction - and the switch flipped, it was on. A first-of-it’s-kind construction comes from a one-piece rubber lower with integrated mesh. To boil it down, this means that the Orton will not only be waterproof, but also warm and dry, all day long. The one-piece-rubber lower is married with a dual-zone BOA Fit System featuring H5 Coiler, making this a versatile boot, fitting feet of all shapes and sizes. In the development of this boot, Sage spent over 100 days in this product, getting it 100% right. Atop of that, the Orton was tested by our staff, our team of athletes, backcountry guides, and our film crew. Thousands and thousands of hours went into setting a new standard with the Orton. Sage knows that the devil is in the details…and he’s detailed. For the best performance in the bootpack, we chose our Vibram V5 rubber outside. For ultimate damping and vibration absorption, we chose our Eco-Harshmellow injected midsole and Eco-Harshmellow Pro insole. For the best possible fit, we chose our performance liner-lasting and a heat moldable, tri-density, Intuition Pro Foam 3D Liner. To top it all off, a rip-stop asym lace-cover with a gaiter hook keeps all the snow out. Best For: Freeride Freestyle Powder

Features
• BOA Fit System Powered by H5: BOA’s all-new H5 dial platform provides a micro-adjustable, multi-directional user experience that is engineered for precision fit through instant tightening or loosening on the fly. Impact resistant, durable, and performance-driven, the H5 BOA Dial ejects on severe impact and is easily re-inserted into the boot.
• TX3 BOA Lace: The best of both worlds. TX3 is a flexible and low-friction textile lace used on snowboard boots to provide a soft, modern design aesthetic with lasting durability and strength.
• S’Cafe Coffee Mesh: A coffee ground mesh liner layer that controls odor and absorbs moisture.
• Internal & External J-Bars: Adding J-Bars to a liner helps add structure and reduce heel lift.
• Intution Pro Foam 3D Liner: Our most supportive liner features high-density Intuition foam for added support without sacrificing comfort. This liner features internal and external J-Bars around the ankles.
• 3-Point Harness Liner Lacing: A traditional liner harness with a pull lace and three contact points hugs the ankle to provide additional support and unrivaled stability to help reduce fatigue.
• Articulating Upper Cuff: Articulating Upper Cuff - Independent upper cuff articulation delivers a distortion-free flex.
• Endo 2.0 Construction: A K2 Snowboarding exclusive, Endo Construction, allows us to alter a snowboard boot's flex, response, and rebound without adding extra materials (extra materials = excess weight). By replacing additional materials with an injected heel counter, adding an extra rebound is as easy as a formula change. In addition, it helps us to provide a more consistent flexing, longer-lasting snowboard boot.
• Eco-Harshmellow Pro Insole: Three separate compositions, Pro, Plus, and Base, now all incorporate K2’s proprietary Harshmellow damping into the layup of the footbed. The result is superior vibration absorbing and comfort for all-day excursions into the backcountry or hiking and riding around the resort.
• Vibram V5 Outsole with Harshmellow: Our premium rubber compound provides industry-leading durability and grip and is integrated with Harshmellow foam to absorb chatter and vibration.
