if you have to get them then go with the kaos. it has the lace up liner and all the padding. the kreations are super soft and dont have lace up liner and they only have the heel padding. read my review of them

If you look hard you can find the SPK Pro for around $300, i bought mine last year around this time from Proctor Jones, in wonderful tax-free New Hampshire
Sooo much padding, soo stiff, really helps me pressure the skis, side note, it's also unbelievable in powder.

Kaos' are sick. I skied them almost exclusively in the park last year and this year just about all year out of the park in gnarly steep and deep terrain. They were great in both environments, in all conditions. The lace-up liner is sweet, I didn't know the Kreations didn't have it, and I'd buy the Koas' just because of that. They are the most comfortable boot I've ever owned and I LOVE the 2 buckle system. They've lasted way better than any other boot I've owned and are WELL worth it in my opinion.

I just bought kaos and theirs so much extra padding and there actually very comfy even within the first 10 minutes of trying them on. i walked around in other boots to that day and non were as stable and flexible and as comfortable as the kaos was.

I love my spk kaos. At first I did not know if it was worth it paying 100$ more for the kaos or if I should get the kreation but I went for the kaos and I am happy I did cause they are the best boot I ever had. If you want to go out of the park buy the kaos cause they are stiffer.
