The 2027 Nitro Sentinel Step On® BOA® is Nitro's most approachable men's Step On® boot, combining the simplicity of Burton Step On® technology with Nitro's legendary out-of-the-box comfort. Designed for riders who want quick entry, dependable performance, and all-day comfort, the Sentinel delivers a balanced flex that works equally well for cruising groomers, progressing through the park, and exploring the entire resort. It's an excellent choice for riders entering the Step On® ecosystem without jumping straight into a high-end, aggressive boot.
Featuring a Single BOA® Fit System, the Sentinel provides fast, micro-adjustable closure with the turn of a dial, eliminating traditional laces. Burton Step On® toe hooks and heel cleat create a secure three-point connection with compatible Step On® bindings, allowing riders to simply step in and ride. Inside, Nitro's heat-moldable Cloud liner, EVA midsole, and Rubber Outsole provide lasting comfort, impact absorption, and dependable traction when hiking icy parking lots or bootpacking to fresh snow. The result is a boot that's comfortable enough for all-day riding while offering the response needed for confident progression.
Whether you're upgrading from traditional lace boots or purchasing your first Step On® setup, the Sentinel offers one of the best combinations of value, convenience, and comfort in Nitro's 2027 lineup.
