Description
An extremely comfortable BC-boot with an integrated gaiter that is reinforced with Kevlar on exposed areas. The boot has been developed specifically for expeditions and long journeys on skis in extremely cold conditions. Polar A/P/S also has a specially developed last that ensures you have room for liner. It also has extra insulation within the sole. The boot has been used on a wide range of expeditions, both to the North and South Poles, however, it is also suitable for simpler expeditions in cold conditions. The boots are developed especially for use with liner. We recommend buying the boot 2 sizes larger than normal for use with liner during extreme conditions. Liners are purchased separately and are available in accessories. Certain snow/crust conditions are an extreme strain on the shoes materials, and with use under such conditions increased wear is expected.

This light weight liner offers 100% waterproofness, keeping your feet dry in all conditions. The shaft height supports the shell and provides additional stability. Ideal warmth to weight ration. The liner fits perfectly with our expedition boot Polar A/P/S. If you want a tight fit, choose your regular boot size for the liner. If you prefer more room in the liner, choose one size up. For use of the liner in expedition boots, as Polar A/P/S or Polar Advance, we recommend you choose the expedition boots 2 sizes larger than the liner for a good fit. Polar Liner can be heat moulded. This should be done by a specialist in heat moulding.

Description
Highly comfortable, warm and sturdy ski boot made from full grain leather for demanding backcountry ski touring. The boot features a winter lining with GORE-TEX® and has a thermal insulating midsole as well as anatomical insoles. Extra toe reinforcements protect the leather from sharp ski edges. The boot also offers an excellent fit that prevents blisters. Certain snow/crust conditions are an extreme strain on the shoes materials, and with use under such conditions increased wear is expected.

Functions
Insulated for cold days: GORE-TEX Insulated
Used in winter models for added insulation in low temperatures. Water and snow are blocked out while the sweat easily evaporates from the inside of the boot. The insulating lining protects against low temperatures and provides a dry, warm and comfortable climate for your feet. The membrane is 100% waterproof, durable and has good breathability with insulating properties for use in cold weather conditions.
Molds to the foot: Memoryfoam Ankle Comfort Collar
Memory foam is inserted into the construction around the ankle section to provide extra good fit. Using body heat, the material is shaped so that the shoe sits comfortably around the ankle.
Top leather quality: Full-grain leather
Full grain leather is the best leather quality, with good breathability and a smooth surface which, when properly maintained, makes it very durable and water- and snow-resistant.
