Nike Snowboarding Zoom Ites Snowboard Boot - Men's - 2012
Let's get one thing on the table: Nike knows footwear. The Nike Zoom Ites Snowboard Boot is testament to that, a collaboration between knowledgeable footwear engineers and game-changing athletes . From the outside, this stylish stomper sports a throwback b-ball kick vibe but inside is where the magic happens. A fully heat moldable multi-density liner provides long-lasting comfort, the adjustable flex system lets you dial in the perfect fit (and change your mind later), and for heel-retention and overall fit, Flywire technology has you covered. And when it comes to board feel, Nike's Free outsole provides the natural motion akin to barefoot running shoes.
- Traditional lacing with webbing lace system and neoprene eyestay for quick and easy tightening
- Phylon midsole absorbs shock and underfoot chatter with half the bulk thanks to the reduced volume of the compressed EVA compound
- Zoom Air cushioning utilizes air to soften the blow to your heels from hard landings
- Neoprene articulation at instep allows for unrestricted natural forward movement and less bulk
- TPU overlays reinforce shell shape, add support, and increase durability
- Nike Free outsole features a minimalist design with deep-notches that provide insane board feel and barefoot-like movement
- Flywire technology uses an ultralight nylon bootie that holds heels and ankles in place as well as keeping the forefoot from sliding around in the toe box area
- Outlast footbed offers plush comfort with temperature-controlling Outlast to keep your feet just the right temperature while riding
- Space Blanket insulation stores heat with an internal, thin reflective layer
Bottom Line: From the footwear artists comes another masterpiece.
Leave your mark on The Wall.

...he'd have his own boot, and I'd own a pair. That said, they'd probably share many of the features of the Nike Zoom Ites.
Conventional lacing on the shell is helped a lot by these little guys that lock in the lacing. I have no issues getting the desired amount of snugness here.
Liner lacing and speed strap around the top of the liner are easy and fast and super secure. The heel lock works like a charm, and the liner is super comfy but still secure and responsive--read: not too squishy.
I'm only getting mid flex with no stiffeners, so I don't tie as snug for park feel (the heel lock keeps my feet securely in the cabin). The stiffeners do seem to change the flex and help on the point-it pow or speed days. I'm getting great response from the boot.
The boot is versatile, but it might not be soft enough for the park rat needing the squishiest flex nor stiff enough for the billy goat chute charger. Still, it suits my needs and I ride all over in all conditions. It is certainly one of the stiffer boots I've had with the blue guys in and plenty stiff for my riding style on the steeps.

Super comfy boot, probably a half size bigger than the kaiju and a bit stiffer. Awesome with the the additional stiffeners. They do break in quite a bit though and pack out a good amount so account for that.
