I wear size 12 shoes and always thought I was 13 in snowboard boots. My current DC Judge standard boots are 13 and feel stretched out. Just got Nitro Darkseid BOA and was concerned because when standing straight up my big toe touched, this video helped me realize when I bend my knees they are perfect and super comfortable. I’m not wearing them to walk around, I’m wearing them to ride with knees bent. So hey, they are actually a true fit compared to my regular shoes, thanks 🙏🏻

Really good explanation. Particularly the part about what socks to wear during fitting was a handy tip for me. I thought my 12 year old boots were good because no obvious signs of wear on the outside…bought a new pair this year and realized the other ones are like wet cardboard compared to the new boots! I was able to get some powerful carves even with those old boots so definitely looking forward to this season with new boots!!

@PeterGlennSports

Yeah, that is always a hard thing. When you are using your boots and breaking them in over the years it can be hard to know when they’ve gone soft. Stoked you got some new ones, definitely going to feel more effortless edge to edge and have way more stability. Enjoy the ride!

Perfect advice! I got new boots this year and I got them 2 sizes smaller than my previous boots (the shop that sold me my first pair did a terrible job in guiding me for my size). I was feeling the new boots snug and it felt weird at home, but after trying them 3 days on the mountain I have to say they are very comfortable while riding and I can finally control my board without any heel lift! So listen to this dude’s advice he definitely knows what he’s talking about!

Was about to send back some boots I really liked because of toe touch. They felt "just a bit small" out the box. You've convinced me to try them out, and saved some me a few duckets on return shipping. Many thanks!

It could, just depends on the insole itself. As long as the replacement insole is thicker in the the heel than the one the boot came with

I'm probably a 13.5 4E in normal shoes and have been using 14W Burton Photons the last few years. Unfortunately they're BOAs. Soloman's seems to only be 2E on their wides. Any suggestions to try? I'd really love laces, but my feet limit selection. Maybe I'll try 13W's and see if my big toe won't die.

Good info here. I'd add though that it's probably best to forget your shoe size in whatever part of the world you live in and just measure your foot and go from there (Mondo size for example). This is because most people have no idea what size shoe they really are - they just know what size shoe they wear and they are not the same thing because some people like snug shoes and others like them loose.

Hey Matt - My mondo is 27.5 which equals a 9.5 boot. I always wear 10.5 sneakers. So hearing you say most are true to size now has me a little confused when mondo says different. Any additional color on this topic would be helpful.

@PeterGlennSports

3 ай бұрын

When we say "true to size" it's referring to US shoe size to US boot size. For instance the majority of the shoes I own fit me perfectly in a US 10.5 and the majority of all snowboard boots fit me perfectly in a US 10.5 as well. Hope that helps 👍

my daughters feet get cold in the morning for the first few runs. she has good socks and good boots. bought her some full merino wool smartwool socks full cushion so hopefully thatll do the job, because she has tried stance, and 32 with merino wool and still has an issue. any other suggestions?

@@32srt32 It's possible that heated insoles/socks might be the answer. One other thing that you should ask though, are her feet getting cold overall or is it more about the toes going numb. A lot of the time people that have boots that don't fit properly and have to tighten then down so much get cold toes more because of the loss of blood flow to the toes than anything. If so a hunt for better fitting boots could also be the answer. My wife has that issue, she has very narrow ankles so it's hard for her to find boot that holds her ankle down well.

They should be snug but not uncomfortably snug and the heel should be held down as much as possible.

I can feel the heel side lifting up when i tippy toe. My big toe is generally shorter than the rest of my toes with the exception of the pinky toe. my longest toe is already touching the tip of the boot - its not uncomfortable by any means but if i size down, i think my toes will claw. I guess now the question is how much "claw" is acceptable? Or are there boots for people with longer toes? Any advice?

I really you don’t want your toes curling up just touching the front in a new boot. If you are getting heel lift you might just need different boots that fit your feet a little better.

@@TvbLOVER1 you might wanna look at some of the 32 boots in a traditional lace. Something from the Lashed up in the lineup. They have pockets on the outside of the liner by your heels and come with foam donuts to help really pinch around your heel to lock your ankle in better. Also, the standard lacing system allows you to really focus the lacing across your ankle for even more hold down.

Just got a pair sent home and my toes are touching I was gonna send them back 😅 Probably just keep them now cheers

Let’s compare two boots by Ride … the Deadbolt and the Lasso Pro. They are both double boa but the Lasso has one boa doing the whole external lacing and the other boa is tightening the liner to the shell by the heel. The deadbolt has one boa doing the exterior upper lacing and the other doing the lower exterior lacing. The liner on the deadbolt synched up traditionally. So the question is… which boot is better at relieving that foot pain and also responsive?

Honeslty when it comes down to it it really just depends on your specific foot shape and which of the 2 boots fits your foot better.

@@griffinjones8123 I'd go TM2. I'always say you can always make a stiff boot softer but you can't make a soft boot stiffer. Especially when it comes to laces you can crank down the heel on the stiffer TM2 and then leave the top a little looser (or even not lace all the way up) to give the boot a softer feeling flex for those days you want a little softer feel.
