The Rome Memphis Boa women’s snowboard boot has been around for years, picking up plenty of admirers due to its all-rounder qualities and impressive tech. 2017/18 sees it evolve further, whilst still remaining a do-it-all workhorse.
The liner of the Rome Memphis Boa has been upgraded to the ‘Pro F.I.T.’ model, which boasts all the same comfort benefits of its predecessor but with a few extra tech features. It now uses four distinct types of lining, targeted to different areas of the foot where they can be most effective, as well as uber-grippy material right at the heel to further reduce the chance of unwanted lift while you ride.
“The foam insole has extra cushioning at the heel, which is a godsend if you ever come up short of the landing on a sizeable kicker”
The foam insole has extra cushioning at the heel, which is a godsend if you ever come up short of the landing on a sizeable kicker. It’s also been treated with Aegis, a world-renowned anti-microbial agent that will prevent your boots from registering too high on the pong scale. At the other end, a new asymmetrical cuff provides the best ever fit with your lower leg.
