Built for riders who want their boots to feel solid and dependable no matter how long the day gets, this is a mid-stiff, support-focused option aimed at confident all-mountain riding rather than soft, freestyle mobility. The DC Phantom comes in at an 8/10 flex and is best suited to intermediate and advanced riders who prioritise stability, consistency, and a boot that holds its shape as speed and terrain increase. The Phantom is built around a structured shell and liner package intended to maintain its flex and support over time rather than softening quickly. Its flex pattern is firm through both the lower and upper zones, favouring direct energy transfer and controlled response when riding at speed or putting sustained pressure through the board. The overall feel on snow is stable and predictable, with an emphasis on support and consistency across variable conditions rather than freedom of movement or quick lateral flex. Key Features Rider Ability Level: Intermediate to Advanced Flex Rating & Feel: Mid-stiff 8/10, support-focused Lacing System: Dual BOA Tech Features Dual BOA Fit System allows independent adjustment of upper and lower zones for controlled, consistent closure. Response Liner III is designed to provide structured support and maintain its shape over extended use. Internal ankle harness integrates with the liner to help stabilise the foot within the shell. PrimaLoft insulation is used to retain warmth while minimising added bulk. Aerotech Ventilation System is intended to assist with internal moisture and temperature management. Molded IMPACT-ALG insole provides underfoot support and impact absorption. Vibram outsole offers durable traction and a stable platform for walking and boot-packing. Articulated shell construction is designed to help maintain consistent flex throughout the life of the boot. /* Ballistyx Size Chart — DC Snowboard Boots (paste-safe) */ .bx-sizechart { max-width: 980px; margin: 0 auto 24px; font-family: inherit; overflow: hidden; clear: both; } .bx-sizechart__title { background: #111; color: #fff; padding: 14px 16px; border-radius: 12px 12px 0 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.2; } .bx-sizechart__wrap { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; border-top: 0; border-radius: 0 0 12px 12px; background: #fff; overflow-x: auto; } .bx-sizechart table { width: 100%; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0; font-size: 14px; } .bx-sizechart thead th { text-align: left; background: #111; color: #fff; padding: 12px 14px; font-weight: 700; white-space: nowrap; } .bx-sizechart tbody td { padding: 12px 14px; border-bottom: 1px solid #ededed; color: #111; white-space: nowrap; } .bx-sizechart tbody tr:nth-child(even) td { background: #fafafa; } .bx-sizechart tbody tr:last-child td { border-bottom: 0; } DC Snowboard Boots — Adult Footwear Size Chart US Mens US Women’s UK EU CM 3 4.5 2 35 21.5 3.5 5 2.5 35.5 21.75 4 5.5 3 36 22 4.5 6 3.5 36.5 22.5 5 6.5 4 37 23 5.5 7 4.5 37.5 23.5 6 7.5 5 38 24 6.5 8 5.5 38.5 24.5 7 8.5 6 39 25 7.5 9 6.5 40 25.5 8 9.5 7 40.5 26 8.5 10 7.5 41 26.5 9 10.5 8 42 27 9.5 11 8.5 42.5 27.5 10 11.5 9 43 28 10.5 12 9.5 44 28.5 11 12.5 10 44.5 29 11.5 13 10.5 45 29.5 12 13.5 11 46 30 12.5 14 11.5 46.5 30.5 13 14.5 12 47 31 14 15.5 13 48.5 32 15 16.5 14 50 33 16 17.5 15 52 34 17 18.5 16 53.5 35 18 19.5 17 55 36 About The Brand DC Shoes was founded in 1994 in California by Ken Block and Damon Way with a clear focus on technical footwear built for action sports. The brand quickly became one of the most influential names in skateboarding before expanding into snowboarding in the late 1990s, bringing the same emphasis on durability, performance, and rider-driven design into winter footwear and outerwear. In snowboarding, DC is known for building boots and apparel that prioritise function, longevity, and real-world riding over trend-driven design. With decades of experience across skate and snow, DC products are developed with a strong understanding of board feel, impact protection, and all-day wear, making them a trusted choice for riders looking for dependable gear built to handle full resort days and demanding conditions.
