About the K2 Hanford
The K2 Hanford snowboard boot took notes from the #1 boot in snowboarding and put its own spin on it.
It all starts with the awesome This Grips!™ outsole - two different densities of rubber strategically placed to ensure the best possible grip for the parking lot and the boot pack. A full-EVA midsole is backed with K2's impact-resistant Harshmellow™ material, helping to reduce vibration and mellow out the harshest of landings. Less vibration of the ankle means that your feet feel comfortable and fresh all day long.
Inside the Hanford boot, K2's multi-density Control Foam liner features heat-mouldable foam from Intuition®. As an industry leader, Intuition® foam is lightweight, durable, warm, and has an excellent memory - meaning that it moulds to the shape of your foot and stays that way. This is wrapped in a 3-point harness - snuggly holding your ankle in place for stability and reducing heel lift for ultimate board control.
This Hanford is made using the patented Endo™ Construction, which keeps it extremely lightweight. Replacing a traditional heel counter of the boot with an injected poly material allows K2 to change the flex and rebound of the Hanford snowboard boot without adding extra weight. Endo™ construction helps retain the boot's flex over its lifetime and adds an extra layer of durability.
A dual-zone BOA® Fit System allows users to adjust the upper and lower of the snowboard boot independently, fitting more foot shapes than a standard single-BOA® boot normally would.
All this is topped off with a lace cover to keep your laces safe from the edge of your board and whatever else might come into play.
