Description
For a good reason, the Contour has long been the favorite boot of our women's team. This mid-to-stiff flexing boot is a no-bull, feature-forward snowboard boot that prioritizes performance and looks damn good doing it.
The secret to the award-winning fit is our Conda™ liner lacing system. Powered by a BOA® Fit System dial, this forgiving and adjustable harness is designed to pull the user's heel into the boot's heel pocket. This urethane-based harness hugs your ankle and flexes naturally. Externally, we started with an articulating cuff to reduce distortion when bending the knee, and we've integrated our Flex Zone calf panel at the top of the cuff, helping to keep legs happy all day long. A high-powered BOA® Fit System H4 Coiler closes the shell securely and can be done without removing your gloves. Lastly, to add durability and maintain the boot's flex over the boot's lifetime, we constructed the K2 Contour using our Endo™ technology.
Underfoot, we've used premium materials to improve damping and grip. The outsole is built using our proprietary This Grips!™ dual-rubber compound to provide excellent grip both on and off the snow. This is all set atop a dual-density midsole comprised of a lightweight EVA and our proprietary Harshmellow™, designed to dampen vibration on rough terrain, and cushion big landings.
Lastly, we wrap your feet in a breathable Intuition® Pro Foam 3D liner, fully customizable and heat-moldable to fit the exact shape of your feet, and contains a 95% post-consumer recycled coffee mesh to control foot odor.
Tech Specs
- FLEX: 6/10
- H4 COILER BOA® FIT SYSTEM WITH TX3 LACING: A cable and reel based lacing system that creates even tension and easy lacing operation. This system features low friction guides for even tightening. TX3 is constructed from recycled PET with a structural core. This lace provices a softer, more flexible look similar to the characteristics of a traditional lace but the superior closure of a BOA® system.
- FLEX ZONE UPPER CUFF: The flex zone upper is designed to help retain a consistent flex pattern while reducing shell distortion when flexing.
- RUBBER REINFORCEMENT: Abrasion resistant reinforced outsole rubber is placed in areas of high stress to extend the life of the boot and increase durability.
- ENDO™ 2.0 HEEL COUNTER: An injected heel counter offers us the ability to provide a lighter weight snowboard boot with more precise rebound, and a longer life-cycle.
- INTUITION® CONTROL FOAM 3D LINER: Built with a blend of high and medium density Intuition® foam, this is our most versatile liner. With internal and external J-Bars and a 3D molded EVA insole, the Control Foam 3D liner is built to provide all-day comfort and support.
- INTERNAL & EXTERNAL J-BARS (LINER): Adding J-Bars to a liner helps add structure and reduce heel lift.
- S’CAFE™ COFFEE MESH: A post-consumer recycled coffee ground mesh liner layer that controls odor and absorbs moisture.
- FLEX ZONE CALF PANEL: Flexible neoprene is placed at the liner's cuff to reduce pressure points on calf muscles.
- BOA® CONDA™ LINER LACING: A patented K2 liner lacing system that uses a urethane harness to gently hug your ankle, creating unrivaled heel hold. BOA® Conda™ allows for adjusting liner tightness and heel hold on the fly from outside of the boot, even with gloves on.
- THIS GRIPS!™ PREMIUM RUBBER OUTSOLE WITH HARSHMELLOW™: New! For 2023 Premium dual-density rubber outsole featuring K2’s proprietary This Grips!™ compound. Taking inspiration from modern skate footwear, our new cupsole outsole features a rounded heel for less drag while hiking, a wrapped arch for support and stability, & vibration damping Harshmellow™ in the heel and forefoot.
