First impression
When I unpacked and put them on for the first time, one thing in particular caught my eye. The Velcro fasteners on the inner shoe. The inner boot is littered with Velcro fasteners and straps at the end of the shaft, so at first you're a little overwhelmed as to which strap belongs where and in which order they should be fastened. But once you've got that figured out, the liner adapts really well to the lower leg thanks to the multiple fastenings. For this season, K2 has given the Aspect an update here, which makes the boot even more comfortable.
Inner boot and outer boot - details and fit
As mentioned above, the inner boot not only scores with very good fixation in the shaft area, but can also be adapted to difficult foot shapes as an Intuition liner by baking it on. I didn't use this feature as the liner fitted me well as it was. The liner also has so-called J-Bars in the ankle area to further improve the fixation of the heel. Burton has produced these J-Bars as an add-on for parts of their liners. Other companies, such as K2, have now switched to supplying liners directly with J-Bars due to their good functionality.
