Model Year: 2007-08 The DC Women's Phase Snowboard Boot looks and feels like your favorite skate shoe, but designed for the snow. This freestyle boot is great for all skill levels. A synthetic leather upper with water-resistant mesh panels makes this boot lightweight and breathable, and the supportive basic liner increases board feel and flex for freestyle riding. The calf and tongue are lined with foam neoprene to prevent soreness after a day of serious riding. DC's "pill" pattern sole transitions from the skate shoe to the snow boot to give you traction in those high-altitude environments.
