Advantages: The great fit of Intuition liners Disadvantages: They're a wee bit ugly
...Ask a snowboarder whether they’ve got comfy boots and he or she will probably groan and whip off a sock to reveal some stunning blister scars.
Yes, I’ve been to boot hell and back too but, finally, all that has changed. I’ve joined the smug minority who lace up their boots in the morning and never give them a second thought during a day on the mountain. And it’s all thanks to ThirtyTwo’s Griffons.
I spent nearly three months in Whistler early this year and the Griffon seemed to be the boot footwear of choice there. Lots of the instructors and pros (both male and female) had them - usually a pretty good sign of a quality product.
