Thirtytwo Men's Lashed '09 Snowboard Boots
The Lashed is one of the few snowboard boots that doesn't feature a Boa dial closure on the shell, but this traditional lace-up boot is a favorite among all-mountain snowboarders and the Stepchild snowboard pros. Compared to where snowboard boots have been, the new Lashed boot has a lighter design with plenty of impact-absorbing potential thanks to the STI Evolution Foam along the midsole and outsole. The weight savings compared to other ThirtyTwo boots from previous seasons ranges between 15% to 40% depending on the boot model. Despite the minimized ounces, STI Evolution Foam remains dense enough to absorb the shocks and vibrations associated with big air landings and high-speed chatter on hardpack snow. Up front you'll find a distinct 3-D molded tongue that wraps the front of your foot in ergonomic support and helps optimize the boot fit and lacing convenience. ThirtyTwo customizes the stiffness of their 3-D molded tongues to match individual model flex ratings, so if you own an older ThirtyTwo snowboard boot with a lower (looser) flex rating, you might notice that the Lashed feels a bit stiffer in the front of your foot. That traditional, no-Boa lacing closure uses a new and exclusive ThirtyTwo Independent Lacing Eyestay System that doesn't allow the laces to slip loose as your boot flexes along the articulated cuff while riding. Whether you've been around long enough to know how to tie your boots or you're looking for a perfect match for your Stepchild snowboard, the Lashed is a versatile boot that's perfect for guys who ride everywhere in all snow conditions.
