They're lighter than my last pair. Never really thought about it. My friend has the zooms. He mentioned they're really comfortable

see, right now i have the vans danny kass III boots and they are really heavy, they take like 5 minutes to lace up good and they hold your foot in so tight i feel like my feet could clot up with blood or something whatever im sayin, lol. they are also like an 8 on the stiffness scale.

im looking for some looser/lighter boots, anyone have any advice? what kind of boots should i get for freestyle snowboarding.

I have the vapens. They are good boots for the most part. Put around 40 days on them last year. Got 5 on them so far this season. They are still in decent shape. Starting to pack out a little but are still comfy for the most part

.... picked them up for $30x20 slang them for $130ish

so i'm about to jump into the darkside too. I'm always about the little guys, but you just cant deny that nike or any big company that has the money for the r&d to put out good products. So my question is since nike is the most copied shoe out there, can i trust buying the boots from ebay? has anybody heard of people making fakes already?

Buy from a reputable seller and make sure to use some sort of payment that covers yours ass in case of misrepresentation. Like Paypal's Chargeback program.

Just use common sense.

How's the sizing for this boot? True to size?
