The O’Brien Border boot is built with versatility in mind. Coming in an open-toe design, it’s covered to fit a massive range of foot sizes, but a softer flex pattern allows it to suit almost any rider. An O’Brien Strobel lasted liner and CMEVA outsole makes sure to provide a snug fit around your foot while ensuring plenty of comfort. Finally, the Border offers plenty of support for an open-toe boot; with canted footbeds and in-built arch support, you have some of the best features underfoot.
