Nitro Venture Pro TLS Snowboard Boots Ice - Nicotine

The Venture Pro is Nitro´s medium flexing, sure fitting, Vibram equipped snowboard boot designed to provide the perfect mix of flex and last for an incredible all-mountain experience.

Team riders like our very own Bryan Fox inspired the introduction of the now famous medium flexing Venture Pro snowboard boot. They all wanted a boot that is sure fitting, friendly flexing, warm, and built to last - the result was this beefed up and indestructible version of our perfect fitting Venture boot. The Pro version is upgraded with a Vibram Outsole made of Icetrek Vibram Compound and EVA Midsole for long-lasting durability and grip. The 45° Lacegliders enhance the durability and the Re/Lace Liner Locker makes it easy to adjust your fit on the fly, while the Flex Link Design and Cloud 6 Liner with an Ortholite Dual Density Footbed create a seamless blend of flex and comfort. The Venture Pro´s durable shell and Vibram sole, combined with its time-proven versatile flex and fit, will keep you going longer with confidence all season long!

The Lo-Heel Frame in around the ankle allows for more flex and a snug fit, while the Molded Latex heel pads offer infinite heel fit and our flex toe construction for a highly customized feel. The Ortholite® footbeds will provide additional dampening and support for all-day riding. Heat moldable.
 
Lacing systems:
TLS Lacing System (Shell)
Nitro leading the pack with the TLS 5 lacing system: Easy lace engagement and release, combined with the low abrasion of our Dyneema® laces are the key factors of this highly reliable zonal lacing system. At the same time, the TLS 5 features compact size and low weight while maintaining the reliability proven by tens of thousands of days on the mountain. Even though rarely needed, servicing and replacement of all parts including the lace are easier than with any other system on the market. Even using a standard lace if you‘re in a pinch is an option only available on Nitro‘s TLS boots.
Easy-entry handle storage pockets as well as our Bail Out system for easier entry and exit round off the most developed dual lacing system on the market.
ILS Lacing System (Liner)
Our ILS system features a lacing harness firmly connected to the boot shell. This harness snugly wraps around the liner, securing it in the shell and providing precise lacing and fit. Our engineered ILS laces provide less friction and a Dyneema® core for added strength.
Re/Lace Liner Locker
Another innovation from our friendly R&D department at Nitro: The RE/LACE Liner Locker provides easy adjustability of your inner boot lacing when your boot shell is already tied, by just pulling up on the lace handle. This allows you to (re)tighten your liner and foothold throughout the day (wherever you may find yourself on the mountain) without having to untie your boot.

Bail Out System
Designed to make unlacing the TLS system even easier. This pull tab that is placed in the middle of the TLS lacing system on the outside of the boot allows for effortless unlacing and recording breaking speeds for taking your boots off.

Construction:
VIBRAM EcoStep Yttersula:
Vibram grip and traction and an Eco-friendly approach: here is the new sole of NITRO .... made of Vibram® ECOSTEPTM Compound, an eco-friendly recycled rubber compound developed by Vibram® and made up to 50% of recycled rubber. The rubber scrap generated by Vibram’s production process is recycled in order to produce Vibram® Ecostep compound. It’s a High-quality compound formulation, which offers a very good Vibram grip and traction on snow while preserving the environment through the waste reduction.

Flex Link
A flexible panel at the ankle between the upper and lower shell ensures an even flexing, responsive boot without the bulk.
45° Laceglider
This precision-molded low-friction plastic insert is positioned at the crucial 45° lacing position in the ankle area. It drastically reduces lace friction and makes tying up your TLS system even easier.
Ortholite Footbeds
Together with OrthoLite®, the World’s Leading Supplier of Open-Cell Foam Insole Technology, we have developed footbeds in dual and triple density versions for different levels of support and comfort: OrthoLite® compresses less than 5% with excellent levels of shock absorption and energy return. Fit and comfort inside the boot will remain consistent for the life of the OrthoLite® product.
The unique open cell structure of OrthoLite® also creates a moisture management system inside the boot by moving moisture away from the foot leaving your feet drier. When the foot is removed from the shoe any remaining moisture dries very quickly due to the airflow allowed by the open cell network in the foam. OrthoLite® contains a patented anti-microbial formulation to fight fungus, bacteria, and odor. The biocide is added during formulation so that it is linked to the foam and will not wear off or lose effectiveness over time. The Aegis anti-microbial treatment is EPA and FDA approved. OrthoLite® is extremely lightweight providing optimum performance and without adding excess weight to the boot. OrthoLite® is completely washable and will not hydrolyze. Just throw them in your washing machine and they come out like new.
