Mine always get drenched. Not the inside of the boot, but the liner was. So I’m sure it was because of sweating
same here (mine are brand new nike kaiju), obviously some people sweat more than others but other people ride harder than others. lapping/hiking park (fast laps) really makes you sweat, or cranking groomers, just depends how much you put in.
Put boots in a dry room or near (not on) a heater and they get dry, all g

Your Nike’s have Outlast in the liner that regulates Body Temp and therefore is supposed to reduce sweating, yeah?????
hahah probably, im just such a downie, always stacking so snow gets caught in the laces and melts into the boot?
This is coming for you wet boot people
that’s pretty good incentive to fix the problem!
hahah geesuz!!!!
My boots are normally dry as a dead dingos donga at the end of the day, but they steam like a boss when i take them off!
My feet definately looked like that after some days in Whistler!
I find my boots become less waterproof the older they get. When they are newish, they never get wet. By the end of their life, they get soaked nearly every time. I’m sure each brand/boot is different and some are more water resistant than others, but with my boots it just comes down to a breakdown of the materials which allows the moisture in. I find it really important to thoroughly dry them at the end of each day, to give them the best chance to stay dry the next day. Can’t live without my boot dryers.
My boots only ever get wet in Australia. I’m thinking its because of the snow quality.
i havent read the comments but in answer to the topic:
have you ever been in a swimming pool?
Never get wet here, forum kicker boots. I had to walk through a pond of melted snow last trip and still nice and dry
I pull the gatter all the way down over the top od the outside of the boot as well as the bottom of my pants.
