AREᵗʰ Rin Specification:
Traditional Lace
Traditional lacing provides a classic look and feel.
Boa Heel Retention
Dial in to a fast, effortless, precision fit with the BOA® Fit System, which delivers more explosive action and unparalleled accuracy. The side mounted Boa controls a heel harness that locks the heel into the shel for increased response and control.
Free Flex
Thanks to forefoot and shaft panels that overlap near the heel of the shell, this construction creates a supportive, surf-like flex.
CF Stage 3 Liner
To maximize comfort and performance, it sports a design inspired by DEELUXE’s legendary Thermo Flex liner, which previously served as the gold standard in snowboarding for thermomoldable boots. Raising the bar even higher, the Stage 3 liner offers an excellent fit straight out of the box and can easily be thermomolded at your local DEELUXE dealer for a truly custom fit. For enhanced comfort, the liner also features a roomier toebox with a four-way-stretch material that can be thermomolded with or without toe caps. And to further boost performance, the liner’s external heel harness cradles your foot to provide exceptional heel hold and quick and secure lacing. Drop in and never look back with DEELUXE’s Stage 3 liner.
Rock Guard
This layer of rubber wraps around the toebox and sides of the boot, maximizing durability by providing protection from rocks and ice.
Power Strap
This strap provides extra support for your shin to enhance response.
Remedy Sole Unit
Especially versatile, the Remedy sole provides the perfect blend of traction and cushioning. It offers exceptional grip while hiking and when it’s time to send it, the sole’s free-floating heel cushion ensures smooth landings. And thanks to a reduced footprint, it minimizes toe and heel drag.
Back Bone Spine
This reinforced panel cradles the back of the boot to maximize durability and enhance response.
