The brand new Rift is a softer boot that allows you to express your own style but which is still packed with tech. It’s 3D-moulded for a perfect fit with our bindings, combining sneaker-like looks with modern materials including a unique seamless toe construction. Dual BOA laces give you complete control over the fit and flex, with separate dials to tighten the upper and lower zones. The flex is super tweakable, and thanks to an articulated two-part shell you can apply pressure to one side of the boot without deforming the other, creating consistent support and awesome heel hold.
It’s a super lightweight design, too, with a new low profile BFT Ascent outsole to provide cushioning underfoot and traction on any surface. A Transition Zone connects this sole directly to the rubber backstay without any exposed edges, protecting the back of the boot and prolonging its life. Finally, the Rift comes loaded with OC-Kush foam dampening and a Silver heat-moldable liner for total comfort from day one. It’s a killer package made for park laps, soul turns and creative all-mountain shralping.
