Boot Tongue Concept

A boot’s tongue plays a crucial role in shaping its flex—yet it’s often overlooked. To maximize performance and comfort, we’ve completely redesigned the tongue of our boots, tailoring them to the terrain and riding style for which each model is designed. With a nod to skate shoes—which offer a slew of tongue and padding options to meet one’s personal preferences—we’ve carefully developed each tongue around the unique demands of our boots and the riders who rock them.

Freeride Tongue

DEELUXE’s Freeride Tongue is a smooth operator. Especially plush, it maximizes comfort and cushioning while also enhancing durability. At home exploring the entire mountain, it loves to lay down turns that are especially smooth. And for a truly custom ride, the Freeride Tongue sports a three-position pocket that can accommodate an optional Flex Booster. This enables you to personalize the flex of your boot and tailor it to be either symmetrical or asymmetrical. Make your mark all over the mountain with DEELUXE’s Freeride Tongue.

Freestyle Tongue

As versatile as it is dependable, DEELUXE’s Freestyle Tongue is the perfect choice for riders who view the entire mountain as their playground. Armed with a classic appearance and medium padding, it offers a precise boot-to-binding interface and effectively transmits power while also enhancing dampening. And to enable you to further tailor your boot’s flex to your riding style, it sports a single-position pocket for an optional Flex Booster. Kickers, side hits, and rails—the Freestyle Tongue can handle it all.

Jib Tongue

Lean and mean, DEELUXE’s Jib Tongue is at home in the park and the streets, yet it’s also perfect for anyone seeking an incredibly precise and responsive ride. Especially thin, this deconstructed-style tongue offers maximum power transfer and a direct boot-to-binding connection. Its clean appearance is perfectly paired with traditional laces, yet the tongue excels with any lacing system. And to enable you to further customize your boot’s flex, the Jib Tongue has a single-position pocket that can accommodate an optional Flex Booster. Whether locking in your boardslides or boosting your ollies, the Jib Tongue delivers the power and precision you need to take your riding to the next level.

Boost Tongue

Taking the concept of the Flex Booster to the next level, we proudly introduce the Boost Tongue. It wraps seamlessly around the shin for an exceptional fit and a streamlined profile. Providing reliable support with a slightly more forgiving flex, the injected TPU Boost Tongue offers long-lasting, consistent response from day one to the end of its lifespan. Perfect for riders who want a supportive ride without sacrificing comfort and tweak-friendly freedom.

blaster Tongue

The Blaster Tongue takes inspiration from the groundbreaking Boost Tongue and pushes the concept even further. With minimal seams and a streamlined construction, it uses only what’s needed – nothing more – resulting in a design that’s lighter, stronger, and built for maximum durability. Wrapping seamlessly around the shin, the Blaster Tongue creates a precise, locked-in fit that translates into an even more direct riding feel. An integrated handle makes opening and closing effortless, adding a practical touch to high-performance design. For riders chasing uncompromised response and long-lasting reliability, the Blaster Tongue is the clear next step.
