{"product_id":"2027-k2-market-snowboard-boots-kb261670","title":"2027 K2 Market Snowboard Boots","description":"\u003cp\u003eRiders shopping for a first real pair of boots, or a low-key second pair to keep in the car, are the target for the 2027 K2 Market. The flex is soft and forgiving, the closure is a single BOA dial that handles tightening in one motion, and the foam liner offers an out-of-the-box fit that doesn't punish you for skipping the heat-mold session. It's an easy boot to recommend for new riders who don't yet know exactly what they want, and it's an honest pick for anyone who needs a backup pair without spending top-shelf money to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGoing with a single BOA dial at this price point makes a real difference, since BOA tightens evenly and quickly compared to traditional laces. The articulating cuff upper also keeps the flex predictable through the whole turn rather than collapsing and pinching at the ankle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Market is built for beginner men's riders, occasional weekend warriors, and anyone who needs a backup pair in the closet. The soft flex pattern makes it easier to feel weight shift and edge changes, which is exactly what a newer rider needs while learning the fundamentals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction is honest and simple, which is the right call for this category. An H4 BOA Fit System runs the closure with a single dial, easy to set with gloves on, and the dial ejects on serious impact instead of trapping the foot. The Comfort EVA Foam Liner is soft and warm, tuned for an out-of-the-box fit that works for most riders without any break-in ritual, and Fast-In Liner Lacing keeps the liner anchored with a single pull. An articulating cuff upper handles the shell flex independently, and Internal J-Bars hold the heel in the pocket. Underfoot, the Low-Pro Outsole is a lightweight rubber unit that grips well and lasts longer than its weight suggests, paired with a Die-Cut EVA Footbed for basic support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe liner isn't heat-moldable, so riders who want a fully customized fit should look at the Maysis or step into a heat-mold-equipped tier. The single BOA also means upper and lower lacing zones share tension, which is fine for a beginner but limits fine-tuning for more demanding riders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard sizing recommendations apply. The Market runs from 6 to 14 with half sizes through 12, so most riders should land in their usual size. Since the EVA liner stays closer to its initial shape rather than packing down, the size you start with is usually the size you end with.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"K2","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ 8","offer_id":51781198119208,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|8","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 8.5","offer_id":51781198151976,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|8.5","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 9","offer_id":51781198184744,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|9","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 9.5","offer_id":51781198217512,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|9.5","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 10","offer_id":51781198250280,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|10","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 10.5","offer_id":51781198283048,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|10.5","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 11","offer_id":51781198315816,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|11","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 11.5","offer_id":51781198348584,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|11.5","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 12","offer_id":51781198381352,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|12","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 13","offer_id":51781198414120,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|13","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 14","offer_id":51781198446888,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|14","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 6","offer_id":51781198479656,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|6","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 7","offer_id":51781198512424,"sku":"KB261670|BLACK|7","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2027-k2-market-snowboard-boots-kb261670-1-2027-pre-orders-placeholder.jpg?v=1778770550","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2027-k2-market-snowboard-boots-kb261670","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
