A Park-Friendly Classic
The Rift Lace is for the purists – a classic lace-up boot with a softer flex that's perfect for getting creative in the park and beyond. Our innovative Speed Hook lets you lock in the tension of your lower laces, then adjust the upper part independently. The lightweight design blends old school sneaker looks with cutting-edge tech, including a seamless toe box that perfectly matches our bindings, a heat-moldable liner and OC-Kush gel dampening for insane comfort right out the box.
Key Features
- The Rift Lace features a dual density Ascent outsole with a wavy tread pattern inspired by the footprint of a gecko – the grippiest in nature!
- The upper part of the shell consists of two parts that can flex independently, giving the Rift Lace a super consistent forward flex with no pressure points.
- Our Transition Zone tech seamlessly connects the Rift Lace's sole to the Exo Spine, accelerating response and preventing damage to the back of the boot when entering or exiting the binding.

Outsole
Ascent
Combining an EVA midsole and a full rubber outsole, the Ascent hits the sweet spot between cushioning, weight and grip. An extra OC-Kush insert helps to soften heavy landings and dampen the ride, while its wavelike tread pattern is inspired by geckos for lizard-like traction.

Liner
Silver level
Heat molding allows you to customize the fit of our versatile Silver liner, which also features a Custom Flex Zone around the toes for extra wriggle room, 8mm of PE foam and additional PU support. The liner is closed via a separate cuff connected to the inside of the shell, making it a breeze to get on and off. Velcro patches on both sides of the tongue help secure the fit.

3D Molded Tongue
Our asymmetric 3D Molded Tongue is curved more sharply towards the medial side to match the natural ridgeline of your forefoot. This alleviates pressure points and provides a more balanced feeling of comfort and support versus a standard straight tongue.
3D Molded Toe Box
Our 3D Toebox eliminates extra layers and seams around the forefoot, improving water resistance and durablility. The streamlined design also makes it easier to slide your boot in and out of the binding.
ASYM 3F
A unique asymmetric boot design co-developed with BOA® that generates optimal support and flex. The asym tongue features lace guides positioned on the flatter forefoot areas for more even closure and less point-loaded pressure. Increased medial arch support reduces foot fatigue and cramps.
OC-KUSH
Shock-absorbing dynamic gel pads are inserted into the outsole around the heel area. This extra cushioning helps you soak up heavy landings and reduces fatigue from bumpy snow. It also makes your boots super comfy to walk around in.
Rubber Backstay
A durable section at the back of the boot that protects it from wear. Our unique Transition Zone means the rubber is bonded smoothly to the outsole with no ridges, eliminating any snags when you enter or exit your bindings.
Articulating Cuff
The upper shell overlaps the lower part and moves independently. This creates a super smooth riding feel and eliminates any pressure points when the boot is flexed.
