A premium version of our mid-stiff team favorite, the Rift Pro offers a relaxed flex that's perfect for creative riding anywhere on the mountain. Dual BOA® lacing provides complete control over the fit, while OC-Kush foam dampening and a Silver heat-moldable liner ensure total comfort from day one. The sleek looks are on point too, with an upgraded KPU lower section and Armor-Tech toe that will keep your feet dry in the deepest of pow and the wettest of slush.
RESPONSE: 6/10
LACING: Dual BOA - Dual BOA® technology provides quick, precise lace adjustments via two independent dials. Each controls a distinct boot zone, delivering a custom fit in seconds.
LINER: Silver Level - Heat molding allows you to customize the fit of our versatile Silver liner, which also features a Custom Flex Zone around the toes for extra wriggle room, 8mm of PE foam and additional PU support. The liner is closed via a separate cuff connected to the inside of the shell, making it a breeze to get on and off. Velcro patches on both sides of the tongue help secure the fit.
INSOLE: OrthoLite X35 - An advanced, 3D-molded insole from the biomechanic experts at OrthoLite®. Constructed from single density EVA, the X35 cradles the whole foot to ensure market-leading support. An elasticity rating over 35% translates to great cushioning and rebound.
OUTSOLE: Surface Outsole - Inspired by lunar exploration, the Surface outsole combines the latest rubber traction underfoot with plush EVA cushioning. The lugs are shaped for even smoother entry and exit when paired with Supermatic® bindings.
EXTRAS
H4 Coiler - Ready for anything, designed to withstand. The bombproof BOA® H4 Coiler is built for the most demanding riders and resists impacts from park to pow. Its efficient mechanism rapidly takes up lace slack, increasing speed of entry.
1-1 Mens Last - Our updated lasts are the foundation of the Nidecker boot line and offer
unrivalled fit. 1:1 lasting means a specific liner, shell and footbed is created for each full and half size. No compromises. We also build in 8° of forward lean to hit the perfect sweet spot between comfort and performance.
3D Liner Support - Awesome foot hold that starts right inside the liner, with 3D molded material and J-bars around the ankle. Minimal movement, maximum control.
Shell Harness - Pull the inner laces to tighten a shellmounted harness. Velcro secures the tongue in place.
Moldable Liner - Made from advanced memory foam, our moldable liners adapt to your foot shape over time or can be heated in store for an instant, personalized fit. Experience zero pressure points and maximum comfort.
KPU - A unique injected polyurethane that’s 100% waterproof, allowing us to create seamless uppers with high abrasion resistance and consistent flex.
Asym 3F - A unique asymmetric boot design codeveloped with BOA® that generates optimal support and flex. The asym tongue features lace guides positioned on the flatter forefoot areas for more even closure and less point-loaded pressure. Increased medial arch support reduces foot fatigue and cramps.
EXO Spine - An external backstay that supports the whole boot and transfers energy instantly from heel to toe. It connects seamlessly to the outsole via our Transition Zone, so you won’t hook up on the binding’s heelcup when you enter or exit your binding.
Armor-Tech - This bombproof TPU strip wraps around the front of the boot to shield it from abrasion and protect your toes when you’re kicking in steps. It also prevents the boot from packing out too much, prolonging its life.
3D Molded Toebox - Our 3D Toebox eliminates extra layers and seams around the forefoot, improving water resistance and durablility. The streamlined design also makes it easier to slide your boot in and out of the binding.
3D Molded Tongue - Our asymmetric 3D Molded Tongue is curved more sharply towards the medial side to match the natural ridgeline of your forefoot. This alleviates pressure points and provides a more balanced feeling of comfort and support versus a standard straight tongue.
Articulating Cuff - The upper shell overlaps the lower part and moves independently. This creates a super smooth riding feel and eliminates any buckling or pressure points when the boot is flexed.
