It started with an idea. K2 snowboard boot scientists approached 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, making this a versatile boot, fitting feet of all shapes and sizes. 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, K2 chose a Vibram® V5 rubber outside. For ultimate damping and vibration absorption, they chose an Eco-Harshmellow™ injected midsole and Eco-Harshmellow™ Pro insole. For the best possible fit, a 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.
