The Cascade W is a straight-up workhorse. It fits amazingly right out of the box and delivers lightweight, flexible support on all terrain. A single BOA® dial keeps things simple and precise, with an asymmetrical upper section to give more support to the lacing system and maximize comfort. Together with a heat-moldable liner and upgraded 3D toe box, this is an ideal first boot that’s forgiving enough to accelerate your progression and tough enough to last for years.

LACING

• Single-Dial BOA: A single BOA® dial located on the tongue tightens a steel lace across the entire shell. It's the quickest, simplest way to close and release your boot.
• H4 Coiler: Ready for anything, designed to withstand. The bombproof BOA® H4 Coiler is built for the most demanding riders and resists impacts from park to pow. Its efficient mechanism rapidly takes up lace slack, increasing speed of entry.

UPPER

• 3D Molded Tongue: Nidecker's 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: The 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.
• Articulating Flex Zone: The upper boot cuff is asymmetrically connected to the lower boot, allowing the ankle to flex naturally and providing great support without shell distortion.

LINER

• Bronze Level: Nidecker's Bronze liner has an integrated lacing system to secure your foot in place, helped by the low profile sliding lace lock. It's heat-moldable for a custom fit and features more volume around the ankle to prevent heel lift. Their trademark Custom Flex Zone improves toe movement, while 8mm of PE foam guarantees excellent overall comfort.
• 3D Liner Support: Awesome foot hold that starts right inside the liner, with 3D molded material and J-bars around the ankle. Minimal movement, maximum control.
• Liner Lacing: The inner lacing system is located on the liner itself.

SOLE

• 3D Single Density Insole: Anatomically designed to cradle your foot and constructed from a single piece of comfortable EVA. A fleece-lined footbed with silicone top-print keeps you warm and secure.
• Gravity+ Outsole: Constructed from a single piece of bombproof and lightweight EVA, Nidecker's Gravity+ outsole delivers great cushioning underfoot. The tread pattern is inspired by snowcat tracks, with a rubber section at the toe for reliable grip in icy conditions.
