Nitro boot fitment - Snowboarding Forum

Subarudunk · 01-24-2013, 09:20 AM

Hi, I am new to the forums and seeking some advice. I had DC boots for 2 years now and the heel lift is starting to get old so im thinking about upgrading to Nitro boots. Problem is that no store in my area carries nitro boots so i cannot try them on. I am leaning towards the Nitro Anthem. Can someone tell me if they fit true to size or if i should size up or down with them. I am a size 8 mens. Thanksss.

I have a size 13 foot, and got the 13 Anthems, fit perfect. I had a very stiff pair of Vans before so getting used to the softer boot took a few runs, but no biggie. Also it took a couple days for the heel cup to break in, after that they fit great with no heel lift. Since you are ordering online I would suggest you check the retailers return policy on returning boots just in case they don't work.

Thanks for the reply. would you say that these are good for a narrow foot? I am going to be ordering from backcountry so returning should not be an issue.

Not sure, I have average width feet, maybe a little on the wide side.
