The Altai is built around an asymmetrical upper that fits perfectly with Nidecker and Flow binding straps, eliminating pressure points.
The Dual BOA lacing system features textile-coated laces and twin dials to allow you to control the upper and lower sections independently.
Underneath, the lightweight B.F.T Gravity 2.0 outsole delivers awesome cushioning and traction, with a rubber toe-tip to boost grip when hiking over ice and rock.
Nidecker smoothed out the connection between the outsole and the boot via a molded section called the Transition Zone, eliminating the usual hard edge to prevent it from getting caught in your binding’s heelcup.
A tough rubber print on the toe box protects the boot and adds a touch more style.
Inside, there’s a new heat-moldable Silver liner, allowing you to customize the fit if you need to but which is comfortable straight out the box.
The Altai is a mid-stiff model with plenty of lateral support, making it great for digging trenches in the piste or floating through forests with pinpoint accuracy.
