I want to get some snowboard boots, and was wondering if anyone could suggest some comfortable boots. All the ones I've tried so far have been super uncomfortable. Has anyone tried out any of Nike's boots?

All boots fit different. So you just need to try on a bunch of pairs to figure out whats for you. I have heard great things about nike's but I've tried on almost all of their boots and none are for me. I like Ride boots.

I know that didnt answer your question.. just go try on as many boots as you can

Nike makes some of the best boots on the market IMO. I rode the Kaiju's all last year and it is hands down the best boot I've ever ridden. Check out the Vapen if you're on a budget, it's an insanely tech boot for $200.



Ultimately, your best bet however is to go and try on boots at your local shop because everyone's feet are different.

Cool, I think I found a local place that carries them. I will check them out.
