That shell toe design can only mean one thing; the adidas Superstar snowboard boot is back for another year. Inspired by the shoe that’s been around for almost 50 years, this boot is definitely a favourite with the fashion-conscious – but there’s plenty of function on show here too.

“You’ll know that your boot is secure thanks to the gripping qualities of the shell toe (it’s not just for looks…)”

The classic lace is complimented by a power strap, which lets you set the level of support to best match your riding style – or even just your mood that day. Run it tight for more agressive riding, or ditch it altogether for a more loosey-goosey feel.

However you ride it, you’ll know that your boot is secure thanks to the gripping qualities of the adidas Superstar’s shell toe (it’s not just for looks…). EVA cushioning protects you from nasty vibrations and impacts, and the heat-mouldable liner is comfy and supportive at all times.

It boasts a slightly wider fit than the adidas Samba, so if that sounds like it’ll work with your feet then give the adidas Superstar a try.
