Nike Snowboarding Zoom Air Kaiju Boot
Kaiji translates to “strange beast” in Japanese, which is an appropriate fit these new snowboarding boots from Nike. The Zoom Air Kaiju Boots were first debuted at a trade show earlier in the year, and now we have the first look at the pseudo kicks, with all of their tech savvy goodness. With all of the features a boarder lusts after, including a webbing lace system with a neoprene eye-stay that allows for easy tightening. The fourth hoop also has snow lace locks, which allows for even further tightening, this time zone specific. The cuff of the boot is also partly constructed out of neoprene, which allows for maximum comfort and flexibility. My favorite feature on the boots is the one-piece TPU backstay which allows for better flex and rear protection against binding wear. We are in a recession, and anything to make the boots last is loved by me. If you want to talk about fashion, it’s blazing all over the boot, with an elephant pattern on the toe which is reminiscent of your favorite Jays, as well as a complete black colorway with limited blue accents. via For Snowboarding
