If you drop 4 or 500 hundy on boots you are a moron. Buy $100 snowboard boots and you are laughing.
Make sure you buy the right $100 snowboard boots as my buddy did and they are toast after one season. Sole worn down and leaking and he gets wet feet. Good old plastic bag trick to finish season out

Going on year 4 next year with my $400 sled boots.

I’ve now ridden a season in the TOBE Nimdus boot and so far they are the best boot I’ve had. They’ve already outlasted the FXR boots from the past. They have been the most comfortable boot so far and I’ve been warm and dry, they are also a very light weight boot as well.

Danner hunting boots are really good and can be resoled when the running boards get to them. Super warm and dry.

So I have had klim boots for the last 10 years and the first pair worked flawlessly and eventually wore out so I bought the new boa ones last winter and broke 2 cables and the wires wore through the boots. Klim did refund the full amount but in a gift card only to be used on there website. But they are sold out of every boot basically even the lace up ones that I wanted now instead of the boa. I am now wondering what other boots are actually good?

Insulated rubber boots with the steel toe, they work in the patch and on the hill.

Yep ...riding drainages likelihood of wet conditions is highly likely .. might not offer as much support as a dedicated boot but if you end up in a hole you don't have to worry about wet feet.

I am going to give the Klim Klutch GTX Boa boots a try this year as they seem to have better reviews then others. I have never had the boa system.

Hard to get wet feet riding the hard pack groom trail to the hill climb , then doing two pulls and riding back the cabin for beers. We all know that’s all the wedge could handle

The wedge could handle anything the manufactures are putting out today.

Having trouble trusting anything other than a Burton Snowboarding boot, but I'll trust your opinions once I'm ready to get some new boots! Burton boots are practically bulletproof and I also hike in them when I go boarding. I had my last pair for 15 years.

Never tried Burton boots, but i love the Burton snow board pants. 100$ pair lasted 3 years.
