K2 Waive Men's Snowboard Boots 26/27

The K2 Waive is a lace-up snowboard boot built for splitboarding and long days in the skin track, with an 8/10 flex.

K2 modified its Endo™ heel counter to give the Waive a walk mode: releasing the BOA® dial opens the calf panel for a longer stride on the way up. A crampon-compatible heel stabilizer keeps your heel aligned. Traditional laces, an exterior Power Strap and a lace cover keep you secure and keep snow out. Inside, a heat-moldable Intuition® Pro Foam 3D liner and K2's Conda™ heel retention reduce heel lift. The outsole is Vibram® V5 with Eco-Harshmellow™.

K2 rates it intermediate to expert.
