Flex Rating: 7 out of 10
Flex Rating: The flex rating of a boot refers to how stiff the boot is, the higher the relative rating the stiffer the boot. Some boots will list 4 of 5, others may list 8 of 10; two such boots should have similar flex. In general more beginner rider wants a lower flex and more advanced rider a higher flex, but this is not always the case as some beginner riders like more support and some advanced riders like more give. Permanent Liner: This boot comes with a NON removable liner. Non removable liners have the advantage of being smaller for the same size and the disadvantage of not being quite as easy to dry as removable liners. Integrated Heel Counter: A fancy name for a piece of plastic in the heel that gives extra support. PU Upper: Highly waterproof, and a more cost effective alternative to leather. Soft Touch Laces: Softer material used so your hands and fingers don't get torn up while tightening the laces. Molded Sole: The sole is a molded rubber pattern to give excellent shock absorption while riding and better traction when walking to and from the lifts. Steel Hardware: The eyelets and other critical parts of the lacing system are made of steel for increased wear. |
