Description of the K2 Trance Women's snowboard boots

The K2 Trance is go-anywhere do-anything snowboard boot with tons of tech and a dual-zone BOA® fit system.

It all starts with K2 This Grips!™ outsole - two different densities of rubber are strategically placed to ensure the best possible grip for the parking lot and the boot pack. A full-EVA midsole is backed with our 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, our multi-density Control Foam liner features heat-moldable foam from Intuition®. As an industry leader, Intuition® foam is lightweight, durable, warm, and has an excellent memory - meaning that it molds to the shape of your foot and stays that way. This is wrapped in our 3-point harness - snuggly holding your ankle in place for stability and reducing heel lift for ultimate board control. K2 patented Endo™ Construction keeps this snowboard boot extremely lightweight.

Replacing a traditional heel counter of the boot with an injected poly material allows us to change the flex and rebound of the Trance without adding extra weight. Endo™ construction = lightweight and stable. A dual-zone BOA® Fit System allows users to adjust the upper and lower of the snowboard boot independently of each other, fitting more foot shapes than a standard single-BOA® boot normally would.

Lastly, K2 top it off with a lace cover to keep your laces safe from the edge of your board and whatever else might come into play.

Technology

H4/M3 FOCUS BOA® FIT SYSTEM WITH TX3 LACING:

Impact-resistant, durable, and performance-driven, the H4 BOA® Dial ejects on severe impact and is easily re-inserted into the boot. The H4 dial controls the upper shell lacing, while the M3 dial controls the lower shell lacing.

TX3 is constructed from recycled PET with a structural core. This lace provides a softer, more flexible look similar to the characteristics of a traditional lace but the superior closure of a BOA® system.

 

ENDO™ 2.0 HEEL COUNTER:

An injected heel counter offers us the ability to provide a lighter weight snowboard boot with more precise rebound, and a longer life-cycle.

 

S’CAFE™ COFFEE MESH:

A post-consumer recycled coffee ground mesh liner layer that controls odor and absorbs moisture.

 

HARSHMELLOW™ PLUS FOOTBED:

We’ve completely redesigned every footbed we put into our boots. Three separate compositions, Pro, Plus. and Base, now all incorporate K2’s proprietary Harshmellow™ damping into the layup of the footbed. The result is superior vibration absorbing and comfort for all- day excursions into the backcountry or hiking and riding around the resort.

 

THIS GRIPS!™ PREMIUM RUBBER OUTSOLE WITH HARSHMELLOW™:

New! For 2023 Premium dual-density rubber outsole featuring K2’s proprietary This Grips!™ compound. Taking inspiration from modern skate footwear, their new cupsole outsole features a rounded heel for less drag while hiking, a wrapped arch for support and stability, & vibration damping Harshmellow™ in the heel and forefoot.
