Key Features

Performance Unwrapped

The all-new Kita APX sets a new standard in all-mountain domination. Our groundbreaking Dual BOA® WrapStrap closure delivers unreal foot hold and support, while the powerful flex lets you blast steep lines, stomp heavy park landings and drive hard through every turn. Premium tech comes as standard, with a heat-moldable Gold liner and Vibram® Approach outsole to ensure your feet stay comfortable from first chair to last lap. This is what progression feels like.
  • The revolutionary WrapStrap closure integrates a power strap right into the shell, controlled via a BOA® H4 Coiler. Enjoy even pressure distribution and insane response.
  • An advanced OrthoLite® X40 footbed features dual-density construction and premium cushioning that maintains its bounce, eliminating fatigue on the longest days.
  • The 3D PermaFlex tongue is injection-molded from TPU to maintain consistent flex throughout the life of the boot, delivering reliable support season after season.

Tech Details

  • CLOSURE SYSTEM

    Dual BOA® WrapStrap

    Our innovative new closure system provides incredible all-over support and even pressure distribution. The upper laces and built-in power strap are controlled via a BOA® H5 dial. The forefoot is tightened using a separate low profile dial.

  • BOA® Fit System

    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.

  • HEEL LOCK

    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.

  • OUTSOLE

    Vibram Approach

    Our premium outsole combines full EVA midsole cushioning with an OC-Kush heel insert for outstanding comfort. The Vibram® ICE-TREK tread is made from a rubber compound especially developed for winter conditions, delivering exceptional grip.

  • LINER

    Gold

    The Gold liner's advanced heat-molding technology delivers a precise fit in minutes. Premium materials enhance flex and support, while a Custom Flex Zone adds toe room. Available as a classic tongue or asym wrap depending on the boot model.

  • LINER CLOSURE

    Touch Fastener

    Rapid, intuitive closure found on our youth models.

  • INSOLE

    OrthoLite® X40

    An advanced, 3D-molded insole from the biomechanic experts at OrthoLite®. Constructed from two densities of material, including recycled EVA at the heel, the X40 cradles the whole foot to ensure market-leading support and exceptional rebound.

  • FEATURES

    BOA®

    The industry standard in speed lacing systems. Micro-adjustable for a precise fit and engineered to perform in the toughest conditions.

  • FEATURES

    Ortholite®

    Over 25 years of eco-friendly technology bringing unmatched performance and comfort to every insole we make.

  • FEATURES

    Vibram

    Based in Italy and with over 80 years of experience, Vibram is the world leader in high-performance rubber soles.

Extras

  • 3D Molded Toebox

    Our 3D Toebox minimizes extra layers and seams around the forefoot, improving water resistance and durability. The streamlined design also makes it easier to slide your boot in and out of the binding.

  • Asym 3F

    A unique asymmetrical design co-developed with BOA® for balanced support and flex. The tongue's lace guides are positioned over flatter forefoot areas for even closure and reduced pressure points. Enhanced medial arch support fights foot fatigue.

  • Exo Spine

    An external backstay that supports the whole boot and transfers energy instantly from heel to toe. It connects seamlessly to the outsole via our Transition Zone™, so you won't hook up on the binding's heelcup when you enter or exit your binding.

  • Armor-Tech

    This bombproof TPU strip wraps around the front of the boot to shield it from abrasion and protect your toes when you're kicking in steps. It also helps prevent the boot from packing out too much, prolonging its life.

  • Moldable Liner

    Made from advanced memory foam, our moldable liners adapt to your foot shape over time or can be heated in store for an instant, personalized fit. Experience zero pressure points and maximum comfort.

  • OC Kush

    Shock-absorbing dynamic gel pads are inserted into the outsole around the heel area. This extra cushioning helps you soak up heavy landings and reduces fatigue from bumpy snow, as well as making your boots super comfy to walk around in.

  • Space Blanket

    A thermal insulation barrier between the outsole and the bottom of the liner keeps the warmth inside and the cold outside.

Bought and rode this boot for one day, great

Bought and rode this boot for one day, great responsive boot like no other I have had before, outside materials built to last. But and this is a big But, I had to return them, the insole lining just wasn’t for me, after the first hour of the usual comfort fit you get with new boots, I managed to sort it, rode pain free the rest of the day, once I had the boot off at end of day realised I had nerve damage in my foot, looking at the lining it has a seem on top of the foot which then made my foot go numb for a week surprisingly, i had these boots heat moulded to,I feel they need to redesign the inner boot to a moccasin fit,with no over lapping seems, my old Photons inner seems but up to each other to prevent pressure points, such a shame I really liked these boots! I was lucky the retailer returned my money, so think twice if buying on line, try them on first! Just an honest review!

Good material and feels perfect

Good material and feels perfect. My shoe size is EU43 and I bought the boot in EU44.5 and its nearly small for me so I recomend to go up one size higher. So far my best boots

I am incredibly disappointed. It would be a great boot if the quality and the stiffess of the liner matched the shell, but it does not. after not even 20 days of riding, the liner has packed out so much that the boot is barely rideable. if i had known that, i'd either sized down a size or bought another product outright. and then there are those giant velcro strips on top of the liner that make it impossible to tighten the liner enough if your legs are on the skinnier side. i don't know if Nidecker does any product testing, because if they did, they'd found out that the whole concept of this liner just doesn't work. i'll now have to look for an aftermarket liner, or i can just trash this boot that cost me way over 500 Euros! not a good look, Nidecker.

I love the boots

I love the boots I have only worn them of 3 days but they're super stiff. I feel like I have a lot of control with my turns

Hi Jesse,

Thank you for your feedback on the Kita APX Men boots. We're so happy to hear that you love them! It's normal for new boots to feel a bit stiff at first, but they will break in and become more comfortable with time. We're glad to hear that you feel in control with your turns.

Relatively comfortable but ...

Relatively comfortable, although you need to make sure the tongue of the liner is not crimped! It is possible to get the boots very tight with the double Boa system but the lacing does loosen after an hour or so.
There is an issue with pairing with Supermatics, as recommended on Nidecker website. Since there is a good bit of forward lean angle on these boots, it exceeds the angle of lean available on the highbacks of the Supermatics. This results in the sub-optimal situation of having a 4-5mm gap between the boots and highbacks.
Scored 4 stars because above issue is with Supermatics rather these boots

Thank you for taking the time to leave this detailed review for our Kita APX Men boots. We're glad to hear that you find them relatively comfortable. We recommend loosening the lacing and adjusting the tongue before tightening the boots again for a better fit.
Regarding the pairing with Supermatics, we appreciate your feedback and will pass it along to our team for consideration in future designs!
We hope you continue to enjoy your Kita APX!

Keep Shredding,

Very good for a carving but.. want to remove the Velcro

I've been using these boots for the first time this season. I love them and love them. They hold my ankles well when I'm carving, and they have a great delivery of force.
But there's only one thing I don't like about these boots (though I might have used it wrong), which is Velcro on the ankle.
The adhesion of Velcro is so good that it's inconvenient to take it off when you wear it,
It's always necessary to adjust the boots after 2 or 4 rides, but more tight or loose, because of Velcro, turning the BOA doesn't affect the inner boots. Eventually, you need to remove the boots from the binding, release the Boa again, and tighten the inner boots tightly.
I'm seriously thinking about getting the Velcro off.
If your company tests this once, I would like you to let me know the results.
Option 1. Remove Velcro.
Option 2. Remove Velcro and use a power belt such as BOOSTER.

This boot is perfect for carving.

I like the hell lock. I can go all out with my carving skills without being afraid of my boot not holding me.

Hi there!

We're thrilled to hear that it's perfect for your carving skills and that you appreciate the added support of the hell lock. Keep carving with confidence!

Comfortable fit, easy to slide into

I'm a 12.5 shoe and went down to a 12. Tight fit but still comfortable walking around in them. Looking forward to putting these boots to use this season.
