Snowboard boots?

Question

Snowboard boots look cool as hell but ive never tried any on before and looking at them i can see theyre made with the leg part built leaning foward. i just wanted to knowif they can be worn for everyday style; like is that leg part pretty stiff or are those boots flexible enough to to stand erect in?

Answer 1

Well the real problem with snowboard boots isn't so much the lean but the fact that once they are laced up they don't let you move your ankle. This would make things like walking up and down stairs pretty difficult and driving a car is pretty much out of the question. Plus they tend to be heavier than even snow boot so you'll probably get pretty tired it you tried to walk too far in them

Answer 2

They are made so that you lean foward, putting you in the natural posisiton for snowboarding. They are much stiffer than a regular boot that you wear in the winter.

Wearing snowboard boots as fashion.... you will definatly be picked on by boarders! Go without!!!!!

Answer 3

Ya, depending on what kind you get, they are pretty stiff. You could use them for everyday use, because they get pretty comfortable once they are broken, the only problem is that you will walk a little funny because of the forward lean. I just use them for snow snoveling the driveway and when there is a ****-load of snow outside, i do use mine instead of snowboots tho.

Answer 4

They are pretty stiff for the most part although maybe some arent but not sure. Unless it snows alot where you live during the colder months I think it would be uncomfortable to wear everyday. They are pretty bulky for everyday use.

Answer 5

Don't wear them for everyday lifestyle. Believe me you would look gay and would walk like you had a hump. lol
