DESCRIPTION
It started with an idea. K2's snowboard boot scientists approached K2 Snowboarding Team Rider Sage Kotsenburg with a new concept on snowboard boot construction - and the switch flipped, it was on. A first-of-it’s-kind construction comes from a one-piece rubber lower with integrated mesh. To boil it down, this means that the Orton will not only be waterproof, but also warm and dry, all day long. The one-piece-rubber lower is married with a dual-zone BOA® Fit System featuring H5 Coiler, making this a versatile boot, fitting feet of all shapes and sizes.
In the development of this boot, Sage spent over 100 days in this product, getting it 100% right. Atop of that, the Orton was tested by our staff, our team of athletes, backcountry guides, and our film crew. Thousands and thousands of hours went into setting a new standard with the Orton. Sage knows that the devil is in the details…and he’s detailed. For the best performance in the bootpack, we chose our Vibram® V5 rubber outside. For ultimate damping and vibration absorption, we chose our Eco-Harshmellow™ injected midsole and Eco-Harshmellow™ Pro insole. For the best possible fit, we chose our performance liner-lasting and a heat moldable, tri-density, Intuition™ Pro Foam 3D Liner. To top it all off, a rip-stop asym lace-cover with a gaiter hook keeps all the snow out.

S’Cafe™ Coffee Mesh |
Eco-Harshmellow™ Pro Insole |
|
| A post-consumer recycled coffee ground mesh liner layer that controls odor and absorbs moisture. | 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. | |
Internal & External J-Bars |
Lacing |
|
| Adding J-Bars to a liner helps add structure and reduce heel lift. |
BOA® TX3 Lace |
|
Intution® Pro Foam 3D Liner |
The best of both worlds. TX3 is a flexible and low-friction textile lace used on snowboard boots to provide a soft, modern design aesthetic with lasting durability and strength. | |
| Our most supportive liner features high-density Intuition® foam for added support without sacrificing comfort. This liner features internal and external J-Bars around the ankles. |
Outsole |
|
3-Point Harness Liner Lacing |
Vibram® V5 Outsole with Eco-Harshmellow™ |
|
| A traditional liner harness with a pull lace and three contact points hugs the ankle to provide additional support and unrivaled stability to help reduce fatigue. | Our premium rubber compound provides industry-leading durability and grip and is integrated with Harshmellow™ foam to absorb chatter and vibration. | |

|
Articulating Upper Cuff |
|
|
| Articulating Upper Cuff - Independent upper cuff articulation delivers a distortion-free flex. | ||
Endo™ 2.0 Construction |
|
|
| A K2 Snowboarding exclusive, Endo™ Construction, allows us to alter a snowboard boot's flex, response, and rebound without adding extra materials (extra materials = excess weight). By replacing additional materials with an injected heel counter, adding an extra rebound is as easy as a formula change. In addition, it helps us to provide a more consistent flexing, longer-lasting snowboard boot. | ||
