Measure the length of your foot. Then add 1-1,5 cm in boots size. If you have a foot that is 27cm long, you should choose a snowboard boot that is around 28-28,5 cm in boot size. 1 cm up works best for most people. Snowboard boots should have a tight fit, they will pack out 3-5 mm. Read more in our BOOTS GUIDE

Respons Rating: 5/10 Comfort Rating: 8/10
Rider Monarch Step On is very comfortable, perfect for most people, if you want the super-fast Step On system.
Rider Level: Beginner-Intermediate
Liner: Cloud 3 Liner (W) Our most affordably versatile liner, just got better, with slim fitting and easy to operate Re/Lace Liner Locker system for undeniable closure support. The Cloud 3 combines pre-molded Thermacell materials, molded Latex heel pads, and Lo-Heel Frame into one lightweight, a comfortable package offering a solid foothold, no heel lift, and plenty of support and warmth to keep you out longer. Heat Moldable. Lacing systems: TLS Lacing System (Shell) Nitro leading the pack with the TLS 5 lacing system: Easy lace engagement and release, combined with the low abrasion of our Dyneema® laces are the key factors of this highly reliable zonal lacing system. At the same time, the TLS 5 features compact size and low weight while maintaining the reliability proven by tens of thousands of days on the mountain. Even though rarely needed, servicing and replacement of all parts including the lace are easier than with any other system on the market. Even using a standard lace if you‘re in a pinch is an option only available on Nitro‘s TLS boots. Easy-entry handle storage pockets as well as our Bail Out system for easier entry and exit round off the most developed dual lacing system on the market. BOA Ankle Strap An Ankle strap on the boots with BOA adjustment. Increases the support and foothold. ILSLacing System (Liner) Our ILS system features a lacing harness firmly connected to the boot shell. This harness snugly wraps around the liner, securing it in the shell and providing precise lacing and fit. Our engineered ILS laces provide less friction and a Dyneema® core for added strength. Re/LaceLiner Locker Another innovation from our friendly R&D department at Nitro: The RE/LACE Liner Locker provides easy adjustability of your inner boot lacing when your boot shell is already tied, by just pulling up on the lace handle. This allows you to (re)tighten your liner and foothold throughout the day (wherever you may find yourself on the mountain) without having to untie your boot. Bail Out System Designed to make unlacing the TLS system even easier. This pull tab that is placed in the middle of the TLS lacing system on the outside of the boot allows for effortless unlacing and recording breaking speeds for taking your boots off. Construction: Armored Spine We are using an anatomically shaped and 3D molded heel reinforcement to provide even boot flex and long-lasting heel fit. Flex Link A flexible panel at the ankle between the upper and lower shell ensures an even flexing, responsive boot without the bulk. 45° Laceglider This precision-molded low-friction plastic insert is positioned at the crucial 45° lacing position in the ankle area. It drastically reduces lace friction and makes tying up your TLS system even easier. Ortholite Footbeds Together with OrthoLite®, the World’s Leading Supplier of Open-Cell Foam Insole Technology, we have developed footbeds in dual and triple density versions for different levels of support and comfort: OrthoLite® compresses less than 5% with excellent levels of shock absorption and energy return. Fit and comfort inside the boot will remain consistent for the life of the OrthoLite® product. The unique open cell structure of OrthoLite® also creates a moisture management system inside the boot by moving moisture away from the foot leaving your feet drier. When the foot is removed from the shoe any remaining moisture dries very quickly due to the airflow allowed by the open cell network in the foam. OrthoLite® contains a patented anti-microbial formulation to fight fungus, bacteria, and odor. The biocide is added during formulation so that it is linked to the foam and will not wear off or lose effectiveness over time. The Aegis anti-microbial treatment is EPA and FDA approved. OrthoLite® is extremely lightweight providing optimum performance and without adding excess weight to the boot. OrthoLite® is completely washable and will not hydrolyze. Just throw them in your washing machine and they come out like new.
