2026 DEELUXE ID TEAM Essential Black

Flex Rate: 5/10 

Named Best Unisex Snowboard Boot by Whitelines Magazine: Team ID

The Team ID provides everything one could desire in a high-performance freestyle boot. With excellent heel hold, it offers a remarkable board feel and maximum edge control. Its soft to medium flex makes it ideal for riders prioritising comfort while requiring top-tier support and responsiveness. To minimise the environmental impact, the boat's shell is partly made of Rise by Bloom - a bio-based foam derived from algae. This method helps to bind carbon, clean water, and restore aquatic habitats.

Outer Boot
The ID is equipped with Sidekick technology, featuring two reinforcement elements—one lateral and one medial—to maximize power transfer. This enables faster edge transitions, delivering a sharper ride with extra pop. The Powerstrap enhances support around the shin and improves response for more precise control. The Freestyle Tongue optimizes the connection between the boot and binding, ensuring efficient energy transfer and improving cushioning.
Thanks to Thermo Block technology, an insulating aluminium layer in the outer shell, your feet will stay warm even in the coldest conditions. The Quantum outsole provides a highly responsive and direct feel while offering strategic cushioning to absorb vibrations and hard landings. Its grippy structure ensures impressive traction. New this season is the Double Back, a reinforced rubber panel in the heel area that protects the boot from binding abrasion, enhances durability, and improves power transfer to the highback. Additionally, you can attach an optional Powerstrap to the rear loop for even more support.

Liner
The Stage 3 liner provides an exceptional fit straight out of the box and can be heat-moulded for a fully customized feel. The toe area is made from a four-way stretch material that adapts perfectly to your foot for extra comfort. An external Heel Harness wraps around the ankle and foot, ensuring superior heel hold for enhanced performance and control.

Lacing System
The L3 lacing system allows for precise fit, flex, and comfort customisation. Two independent handles let you fine-tune the tightness in the ankle zone as well as the upper and lower sections of the boot. Simply pull up, lock in place, and you're ready to ride.
