Is the Shifty good for beginners?

Yes. The soft 4/10 flex and plush liner make it forgiving and comfortable while learning, and traditional lacing is easy to manage.

How does the Shifty compare with stiffer ThirtyTwo boots?

It is softer and more comfort-focused. Stiffer models give more response and support for aggressive riding; the Shifty favors cushioning and ease.

Does it have a heel-hold system?

Yes. It pairs traditional lacing with an internal lacing system and Grip & Rip heel hold to keep the heel seated.

What kind of lacing does it use?

Traditional laces, tightened by hand, rather than a quick-pull or boa system.

What is the flex rating?

Soft, rated 4 out of 10, so it bends easily and suits relaxed, playful riding.

Our take on the ThirtyTwo Shifty Lace Snowboard Boots

The ThirtyTwo Shifty is a soft-flex (4/10) all-mountain snowboard boot built around comfort. It uses traditional lacing plus an internal lacing system to lock the heel, a plush Comfort Fit liner, a cushy Comfy Tongue and an Evolution Foam outsole for cushioning. It suits riders who want an easy, forgiving boot for cruising and park laps rather than a stiff, aggressive freeride boot. Against stiffer rivals it trades response and support for all-day cushioning and simple lacing.
