Nidecker Altai W Women's Snowboard boots
Introducing the premium all-round Nidecker Altai model. It's built on time-tested foundations, complemented by the latest tech, such as the BOA lacing system with two new H5 Coiler reels. They allow not only precise tightening but also gradual release, so you can fine-tune your boots even while riding.
The ergonomic and thermoformable inner liner is ready to provide you with the ultimate comfort. Inside, you'll find a new EVA and TPE foam footbed for perfect cushioning, while the improved Ascent 2.0 outsole ensures perfect grip on the outside. Altai are responsive medium-flex boots that deliver performance in any terrain and allow for precise, comfortable carving on the slopes and in the powder.
Basic Parameters
- Flex: 3/5
- Intended use: Resort 4/5, powder 3/5, park 3/5
Tightening System
- Dual BOA® – a boot tightening system using two highly durable Boa winding wheels, each tightening a different part of the boot independently. Thanks to this, you can indulge in maximum stiffness or a more relaxed riding feeling.
- H5 Coiler™ Technology – the new BOA dial allows not only gradual micro-tightening but also gradual release by turning counter-clockwise. The new low-profile design reduces the risk of hitting the dial and damaging it.
- External Heel-lock – pulling the upper BOA dial will tighten the sides of the boot diagonally, preventing unwanted heel lift in the boot.
Inner liner
- Silver Liner – inner thermoformable liner with maximum pressure point reduction, inner cuff closure for easier donning, flex zone at the toe for free toe movement, 8mm PE foam and external PU support for greater strength. Closure via separate cuff with Velcro.
- Thermoforming – the inner liner is made of memory foam, which adapts perfectly to the foot during wear, or this process can be accelerated by thermoforming. The result is maximum comfort without pressure points.
- Shell Harness Closure – internal lacing that you tighten with a simple pull on the loop. The tongue is secured in place with a Velcro strap.
Outsole and Cushioning
- Ascent 2.0 outsole – the original version enhanced with Transition Zone™ and a more durable, stiffer heel, ensuring better compatibility with fast-entry bindings. Improved traction under the tip and heel ensures better grip.
- 3D Pro Footbed – this high-performance insert combines EVA and TPE foam in a one-piece 3D shape. It delivers even more comfort and great cushioning. The breathable mesh surface ensures more warmth and grip.
Special Technology
- 3D Molded Toebox - 3D Toebox eliminates extra layers and seams around the forefoot, improving water resistance and durablility. It also makes slipping into and out of your bindings easier.
- 3D Molded Tongue – The 3D molded tongue provides an anatomical fit around the shin and reduces pressure points for increased comfort and tailored support.
- Asym 3F - Asymmetrical boot shape and closure for optimal support and flexibility. Anatomical shape provides great performance and riding feel. Designed in collaboration with the BOA system for ultimate comfort and performance.
- Articulating Flex Zone – a method of connecting the upper and lower parts of the boot that supports easier and more natural bending at the ankle.
- Rubber Backstay – a rubber heel panel protects the boot from wear and tear in the bindings. At the same time, it forms a perfect seamless connection with the outsole, making getting in and out of the bindings even smoother.

Choosing new snowboard boots? It doesn't have to be a big unknown. There are several parameters that are crucial to choosing the right boots. The main ones are size and overall flex.

In addition to the article, check out the video tutorial in which our advisor Dominik tells you what you should consider when choosing snowboard boots »
Boot size
The size chart, which you can find in the detailed description of all snowboard boots, will help you choose the right size. If you don't know the size of your foot according to the chart (UK, US, EUR), you can easily measure it at home. Take a ruler or a meter and measure your entire foot from the heel to the end of the longest finger. The MONDO sizing in the table is given in centimeters. The boot should then be half a centimeter larger than your foot.
Keep in mind that it is important that you try the snowboard boots in socks in which you will later ride. Tighten the inner shoe as much as possible and fasten the boot as firmly as if you were going straight down the slope. The shoe should hug the leg perfectly after the tightening. Even before you go on your first snowboarding trip, it's good to put the boots on at home and walk in them for a while. Once you spend about half an hour in them, you should immediately see if the boots fit well and don't squeeze your feet. Your foot must not move in the boot and neither should your heel lift. It is also good to know that it is necessary to spend more time choosing women's boots compared to men's boots. Women's feet have different shapes, so they need enough time and space to choose the appropriate snowboard boots. And the last, but a very important detail: watch out for the difference between the right and the left foot. Always therefore try both boots.
Even if you choose the right size, your boot may not fit perfectly. It may be too wide, low in the instep area, or it will squeeze your ankle - there are many reasons why not each pair in the world will fit you and it is hard to estimate them all in advance. Therefore, we try to do our best to make your purchase as trouble-free as possible. If you buy snowboard boots from our store that don't fit you, you have the opportunity to replace them, or we will provide you with the full refund. Just send the boots back with a proof of the purchase. If you happen to find yourself in this situation, you can find more information in the Returns section.
Flex (stiffness) of the boot
The stiffness of the snowboard boot is related to the specific riding style on the slope. Freestyle boots are softer, which allows for greater freedom at bends over the tongue of the boot. For freeride, that is, fast and aggressive riding, stiffer boots are better, giving you more support through the tongue and the ankle area.
Classic laces, Boa, or Fast Lace system?
Manufacturers of snowboard boots offer along with classic laces also various fast lacing systems. Thanks to them, it is possible to tighten the boot much faster and with less effort. That way you can spend more time riding. The first of them is fast lacing system (Fast Lace or ATOP). Some systems - such as the Boa system of Nidecker and Burton - even allow the tightening of the instep and shin area separately. Fast lacing systems are reliable and proven, but as it goes with the quality gear, the boots with such systems are also more costly.
Boot liners
For the ultimate in comfort on the hill, don't forget about the boot liners. They have cushioning properties, but are also anatomically shaped, breathable and support the foot arch. In short, it's all about the details. At the moment, you can get snowboard boot liners in all sizes, so whether you have small or big feet, you will definitely find the right ones!
