2024 Nitro Cave TLS Step On Snowboard Boots
Once you lay your eyes on the new Nitro Cave Step On®, or better yet, slide your foot into one, you will be able to tell something special is going on here – something only possible through collaboration. The ultimate fit you know from Nitro boot building know-how combined with the ground-breaking easy to use binding to boot Step On® system will allow you to get more runs in and experience a brand-new feeling. The Women's Step On® Rubber sole combined with the EVA midsole will provide traction when needed at a minimum weight to make hiking and walking easier than ever. Meanwhile, the Armored Spine, Internal Ankle Support, Power Tongue Stiffener, and Re/Lace Liner Locker will provide you with a fit and properly distributed support found only in Nitro boots. Finally, your feet will be warm and toasty even on the coldest of summit hikes with the internal heat technology provided by the Women's Cloud 9 Liner, Ortholite® Dual Density Women's Footbed, and Therminator Shield. If your focus is on fit and comfort with the ground-breaking quickness of the Step On® interface, then you need to step into the result of collaboration between two snowboard innovators – the Cave TLS Step On® boot.
