Salomon Snowboards Malamute Snowboard Boot - Men's

By Ranked #531 - Men's Lace Snowboard Boots January 9, 2008

I bought these boots. They have about 50 days on them now. I just got a blister on my back heel for the first time because of pack-out. I replaced the insoles twice. The laces are frayed, as another reviewer mentioned. Another annoying design flaw is that the outer tongue now slides-out to one side after a few runs regardless of how tight the boot is laced.

Here is what is great about them: They are easily the best boots on the market. They have an inner strap to hold your foot down and prevent heel lift. All boots should have this! They lace so quickly and stay tight, it's absurd... and yet, nothing else will do. They excel in steep terrain and are very stiff without being restrictive.

This design should be improved in small ways to make it perfect.
