The Contour has long been the favorite boot of K2's 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 K2's 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, K2 started with an articulating cuff to reduce distortion when bending the knee, and they've integrated their 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, K2 constructed the K2 Contour using their Endo technology. Underfoot, they've used premium materials to improve damping and grip. The outsole is built using K2's 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 K2's proprietary Harshmellow, designed to dampen vibration on rough terrain, and cushion big landings. Lastly, K2 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.
