TLS 5 Twin Lacing System – Easy lace engagement and release combined with the low abrasion of Dyneema® laces are the key factors of this highly reliable zonal lacing system. At the same time, the TLS 5 features compact size and low weight while maintaining the reliability proven by tens of thousands of days on the mountain. Although rarely needed, servicing and replacement parts (including the lace) are easier than with any other system on the market. Even using a standard shoe lace if you're in a pinch is an option only available on Nitro's TLS boots.

RE/LACE Liner Locker – Another innovation from your friendly developers at Nitro: The new RE/LACE Liner Locker provides easy adjustability of your inner boot lacing when your boot shell is already tightened (tied), by just pulling up on the lace handle. This allows you to (re)tighten your liner and foothold throughout the day (on and off the chairlift) without having to untie you boot.

Bail Out System – Designed to make unlacing the TLS system even easier. This pull tab placed in the middle of the TLS lacing system on the outside of the boot allows for effortless unlacing and record breaking speeds for taking your boots off.
