      4. TONGUE TIED™

      This RIDE specific technology offers a secure fit in the ankle zone and eliminates the need for a traditional harness. The tongue integrated BOA® guides provides total tongue closure and next level heel hold without pressure points. Depending on the model, Tongue Tied™ is paired with the traditional lace, BOA Focus or BOA Coiler Fit System.

      5. TONGUE TIED™ HYBRID HARNESS

      Tongue Tied™ system that integrates an additional upper harness for an ultra-secure fit.

        7. THE CLOSER™

        Offers two times the power to close your boot securely. The Closer™ Lace Guide is centered over the forefoot to drive lace power down low to even the lace tension throughout the entire boot. The even-tightening of The Closer™ Lace Guide takes speed lacing to the next level and an incredibly comfortable fit.

        8. TRADITIONAL LACES

        Standard lacing, tie ‘em up just like your sneaks.

                1. NEW! MICHELIN® HYBRID RUBBER

                Proprietary MICHELIN® rubber compound that utilizes up to 30% reground rubber to reduce the amount of virgin rubber going into the outsole and reduce our “footprint” on the environment. Hybrid rubber is used throughout all MICHELIN® soles.

                2. MICHELIN® SUMMIT

                This sole is a durable blend of Michelin® rubber and phylon that makes for a super lightweight performance sole.
