Whether you're new to snowboarding or an accomplished rider searching for the best bang for your buck, the DC Phase Snowboard Boots are a great choice. Not too soft so they last well beyond beginner-hood, the Phase boots feature traditional lacing for maximum fit customization, UniLite rubber in the outsole for impact absorption and grip, along with a comfortable multi-layer memory foam liner that can be heat-molded for a dialed-in fit.
