I’d buy Snowfeet 44 cm Skiskates* from the official store and select Snowboard Boots bindings. Check that your boots fall within US 6–14.5 before you order. <u>The ski-boot version won’t fit snowboard boots.</u>
Here’s my short checklist:
- Check fit: Ask the store about bulky boots before buying.
- Check cost and shipping: Review the total in USD and the delivery estimate. Use a street address, not a PO box.
- Know the return terms: You have 30 days from delivery to return unused gear in its original packaging. You pay return shipping.
- Match your riding: These 17.3-inch skiskates suit packed snow and short, playful turns. Longer snowblades and skis offer more support at speed.
My take? Choose these for a compact setup - not a shortcut past learning to brake. Start on flat, groomed snow, check your binding fit, and practice stops before heading uphill. :)

Check Whether Your Snowboard Boots Fit
Once you’ve selected the snowboard-boot binding option, check that your boots match its size range and shape.
Check Boot Size and Choose Snowboard Bindings
- Read your boot labels: Check both the US and EU sizes.
- Confirm the size range: The snowboard binding fits boots sized US 6–14.5 / EU 38–49.
- Have wide or bulky boots? Email contact@snowfeetstore.com before buying. Ask about fit and replacement front toe straps. You can replace the front toe straps with extra straps.
After delivery, adjust the straps while using your riding boots. Some settings require a screwdriver.
Compare Snowboard-Boot and Ski-Boot Bindings
Check the table below so you don’t pick the ski-boot version by mistake.
| Model | Recommended boot-size range | Binding type | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Snowboard Boots Model | US 6–14.5 / EU 38–49 | Adjustable snowboard bindings | Snowboard-boot riders who want comfort and flexibility |
| Ski Boots Model | US 4.5–14.5 / EU 36–49 / MP 22.5–32.5 | Adjustable ski-boot bindings | Ski-boot riders who want maximum stability |
Snowboard boots need snowboard-specific bindings. Ski-boot bindings aren’t interchangeable.

Are 44 cm Skiskates Right for Your Riding?
44 cm Skiskates vs. Snowblades vs. Long Skis
Snowfeet* Skiskates suit casual riders who want to keep using their snowboard boots. At 44 cm (17.3 inches), they fit in a standard backpack. That short length also makes edge changes fast on groomed snow.
You’ll still need practice, even if you snowboard. Skiskates depend on front-to-back balance, and their short length gives you less support when your weight shifts forward or back. Skating experience helps, but balance and braking take work. Start on flat, groomed snow with your knees slightly bent and feet shoulder-width apart. Then practice controlled turns and stops. Use those basics to judge whether 44 cm or a longer setup suits your riding.
Compare Skiskates, Long Skis, and Longer Snowblades
Here’s how the main options compare for carrying, stability, and terrain.
| Feature | Snowfeet* Skiskates, 44 cm | Longer snowblades (about 90–120 cm / 35.4–47.2 inches) | Long skis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Portability | Fit in a standard backpack | More compact than long skis, but bulkier than Skiskates | Usually need a ski bag or external carrying setup |
| Boot compatibility | Snowboard boots with snowboard bindings; ski boots with the ski-binding version | Snowboard or ski boots, depending on bindings | Mainly ski boots with compatible ski bindings |
| Learning curve | Front-to-back balance and braking take practice | Added length gives more support; turns and stops still take practice | Beginners need to learn ski-specific balance, turns, and stops |
| High-speed stability | Less stable; better for controlled, playful riding | Generally more stable than 44 cm Skiskates | Generally the most stable at speed |
| Deep-snow performance | Best on packed snow and groomed trails | More flotation, depending on width and design | Better flotation with a suitable powder model |
| Best use case | Casual groomed runs, quick turns, skating-style riding | Carving and recreational riding with more stability | Speed, distance, specialist carving, and powder with suitable skis |
For casual groomed-slope riders who use snowboard boots, Snowfeet* 44 cm Skiskates with snowboard bindings are the better match. If that setup suits your riding style, check the fit before ordering.
Conclusion: Confirm Fit Before Ordering
Check the binding chart to confirm fit, then order the 44 cm Skiskates Snowboard Boots Model from the official Snowfeet* product page.
Before you pay, check the live checkout total and delivery estimate. Use a U.S. street address, not a P.O. box.
Review the 30-day return window for unused items before ordering. You’ll pay for return shipping. Before your first run, adjust the bindings with a screwdriver. For most casual riders, the 44 cm Snowboard Boots Model is the compact Snowfeet* setup to buy.
FAQs
What boot measurements should I send to confirm fit?
Before you order, contact Snowfeet* with your boot model, boot-sole length, and sole type to check the fit.
Snowfeet* Skiskates 44 cm bindings fit snowboard boots in US sizes 6–14.5, but size alone doesn’t guarantee a match. Boots in the same size can differ in construction and bulk. Sharing these details helps confirm that your boots will work with the bindings and that the bindings can be adjusted for a proper fit.
Can I test binding fit without affecting returns?
Yes. Test the binding fit at home with your own boots and a screwdriver before you head to the slopes. To stay eligible for a return, keep the skates in brand-new, unused condition and retain all original packaging.
Once you use the skates on snow, you can’t return them under the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Will my resort allow 44 cm Skiskates?
_Yes, 44 cm (about 17-inch) Snowfeet Skiskates are allowed at nearly all ski resorts._* Their metal ski edges and included safety leashes meet most resorts’ safety standards. Current models are widely accepted on groomed runs, though some resorts turned away older models that didn’t meet their rules.
Check your resort’s rules before you head out. Policies can vary by location.
