K2’s line of ladies’ boots parallels the men’s collection in most respects, but instead of offering a full range of widths the women’s collection has only one or two lasts per model. The stout Spyre 110 offers a choice of narrow or medium, while the Spyre 100 comes in medium or wide. All get a shorter cuff and a women-specific, narrow heel pocket built into a moldable Intuition® liner.
Otherwise the new K2 women’s models deploy the same well-conceived technology found in the men’s line.
The sweetspot for value, price and performance – in addition to fit and function – resides in the Spyre 100. The boot retains the PowerFuse Spyne and Energy Interlock system that give the K2’s their personality, and a heat-moldable, LuxFit Intuition® inner boot is standard issue.
The Spyre 80 has been retired, yielding the soft-flex, wider-last market to the new B.F.C.’s.
