Unusually Large Toe Box

By Gregory Schill Ranked #29 - Men's Lace Snowboard Boots April 2, 2009

When I put my order down on these Darko's I was stoked. A stiff, all-mountain boot, with quality features like intuition liners and Vibram soles for under 190?! After trying them on in a local shop I bought them on Dogfunk. Although they felt perfect in the shop, I found that, when riding, the toe box was much too large, even after heat molding. My heel would stay firmly in the heelcup, but the front of my foot would slop from side to side in the boot causing some pretty ugly foot pain. The other reviewer's were not lying when they said you should have chicken legs/feet to rock these. Although I am stoked on the materials/technology in this boot, I definitely wouldn't recommend them to anyone who can't accommodate this unusually large toe box.
