Comments about K2 Snowboarding Thraxis:
The fur stuff is awesome. They LOOK real nice. I really really wanted these boots to work out but they could not. Like the others said, way too pinchy/tight at top of boot. I think its a combination of boots may be too short, plus design issues. maybe not tapered enough for the calf. I tried on many boots all in size 9.5 in one 3 hour session. even though the thraxis were 40% on sale, i walked away with some driver x boots and some DC scouts. Driver x= stiffest plus comfy. DC status= awesome heelhold, very VERY comfy, and also stiff enough for freeride.

Comments about K2 Snowboarding Thraxis:
I have had these boots for a while, they pinch around the ankles. I deal with the ankle pinch because I can't return them due to use and can't afford to buy new boots. They're solid boots, but they hurt around the ankles. Also these boots are abnormally bulky. Skip these, look at Ride or Burton's boots. First pair of K2 boots, now I wouldn't trust them for any other boots. They felt fine in the store, but kill my ankles when I ride.

Comments about K2 Snowboarding Thraxis:
I tried the boot out. so uncomfortable and painful. there is way too much play in the ankle area. i had to crank down the inner boa so much to stop heel lift that i lost feeling everywhere. The boot was the right size but they were so sloppy. the are ultra stiff, which is ok, but when combined with how sloppy they are its not so great. NOT worth your money.
the 3 boas are cool... great idea, horrible design. Try again K2

Comments about K2 Snowboarding Thraxis:
Little bit pinchy near the boa cable's exit point into the inner boot. I'm returning them, partially for that, but mostly because these are way too boxy for my narrow feet. your mileage may vary but there's no doubt that the pinch is there, and the tongue liner is a bit beefy. Try before you buy, is all. Still giving it a good score, for the interesting tech and solid build, but these boots fit somewhat abnormally, I'd say, compared to the 6 or 7 salomon, burtons I've used.

Down side watch sizes!! Due to high demand this boot is really hard to find i got a pait and ordered my boots based on the same saizes as my old K2 boots but i found that the sizes are smaller! i fit a 9.5 UK and i now need a 10 UK for these boots!! Very upset as now selling them due to not fitting!! But im looking to buy some in UK10 soon i hope!

Merchant response: Boots can be tricky to fit depending on the persons feet shape and preference.
Most good snowboard dealers know how to address these issues as a custom fit. Our boots also have heat moldable liners and once molded will fit much better.
