SIA: Lizard Footwear X-Spin Boots

Last week at SIA we saw a number of skis, snowboards, accessories and boots that aren’t quite in production. One thing we liked was the new X-Spin boot from Lizard Footwear. The boot was incredibly light, yet durable enough for some rugged winter adventures.

Lizard is pitching the boot as a good fit for snowshoe, snow mobile, and other activities. Though we can see this boot will get a lot of wear any time you have to venture out in the snow. The sole has a nice tread so you can keep your footing in a variety of conditions. A rubbery material covers the foot up to the ankle, and then a woven mesh material covers to just below the knee. A fleecy lining keeps you warm.

A Velcro strap secures the boot across the front, which is adjustable for a snug fit. An elastic cord is laced up the back to allow some flexibility in your activity. The boots are made in Italy.

Details are light since these are still concept. We were lucky to even get a photo since on day two the boots weren’t even out on open display. We can say that while the current X-Spin is a good boot, the new one is lighter and more stylish, and worth waiting for.
