Nitro Team Pro MK TLS Snowboard Boot 2026 | Black

Nitro Team Pro MK TLS Men's Snowboard Boot | Black | 2026

Pro Model. No Compromises. 110% Freestyle.

Marcus Kleveland doesn't just endorse this boot — he designed it. The Norwegian X-Games champion and one of the most progressive freestyle riders on the planet worked with Nitro's engineers to build a boot that could handle the full range of what his riding demands: park laps and technical jib sessions at his local, then quad corks at the X-Games the following week. The result is the Team Pro MK TLS — a boot built for riders who want pro-calibre freestyle response without the punishment of a full competition stiff, delivered through a shell loaded with structural upgrades that the standard Team boot simply doesn't have. This is what Marcus rides. The Black colourway is clean, understated, and built for the conditions that don't care what your gear looks like.

The shell architecture of the Team Pro MK is the key separation point from the standard Team. An Armored Shell wraps the heel and lateral foot in an anatomically shaped, 3D-moulded internal plate — increasing heel fit precision, shell stiffness, and structural longevity without adding dead weight. The Shell Power Strap locks down the upper cuff for top-down response and power distribution. The Power Tongue Stiffener is the most rider-specific feature on the boot: a removable insert in the tongue that lets you dial between a stiffer, more precise freestyle setup when you need full lockdown, and a slightly more relaxed feel for cruising or all-mountain laps. Pull it out, ride differently. Put it back in, back to full response. The Speed Gaiter is a gusset construction with a one-handed diagonal zip that keeps moisture out while adding durability to the lace area. Internal Ankle Support gives an additional fit refinement option for narrower ankles or riders who want extra lateral control. Endure® Gravity Foam Toe Protection uses a TPU-based material that's up to 50% lighter than rubber at equal thickness, 100% recyclable, and maintains flexibility even in sub-zero conditions — protecting the highest-impact zone of the boot without compromising feel or weight.

The TLS Twin Lacing System runs two independent zones on Dyneema® low-abrasion laces, locking in precisely with a compact, lightweight mechanism proven across tens of thousands of days on the mountain. Bail Out system for rapid release. 45° Lacegliders at the ankle reduce lace friction for faster tightening and a smoother closure feel. The Cloud 9 liner is Nitro's most ergonomic liner design — Pre-Molded Thermacell for an out-of-the-box fit, fully heat-mouldable, with ILS Internal Lacing System connecting liner to shell via a Dyneema®-cored harness. Re/Lace Liner Locker lets you retighten the liner without loosening the outer shell. Air Dampening in the heel pocket absorbs the shock of hard landings with genuine effectiveness — the kind of cushioning that matters on flat-landed tricks and long days in the park. Therminator Shield between the sole and liner reflects body heat back to your foot. Ortholite® High Cup Dual Density footbed underneath provides zonal support and sustained cushioning throughout a full season. Vibram® ECOSTEP™ outsole with EVA midsole delivers proven grip underfoot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size should I order?
The Nitro Team Pro MK TLS runs true to size — order your standard US shoe size. Nitro sizes in Mondopoint: US 9 = Mondo 270, US 10 = Mondo 280, and so on. Snowboard boots should feel snug straight out of the box — toes lightly grazing the front of the liner when standing upright, heel locked down with minimal lift. That's not too small, that's correct. When you bend into a riding stance, your heel drops, toes pull back slightly, and the boot wraps your foot properly. If you're between sizes, use the half sizes. Our full boot fit guide is at twelveboardstore.com.au/pages/snowboard-boots-how-to-choose-and-fit-guide, or call us on 03 9421 2293 and we'll sort it in minutes.

Do you offer professional boot fitting and heat moulding?
Yes — and it's free when you buy your boots from us. Come into the store at 435A Bridge Rd Richmond and our staff will fit you properly: measuring your foot, checking shell fit before the liner goes in, and heat moulding your Cloud 9 liner to your exact foot shape on the spot. With a boot this technical — multiple shell components, optional ankle support insert, adjustable tongue stiffener — it's worth getting that setup right in person. A moulded liner eliminates pressure points, locks in heel hold, and means the boot is dialled from run one. Not in Melbourne? We can walk you through the at-home process by phone or message.

What if I get the wrong size or the fit isn't right?
Reach out before you do anything else — call us on 03 9421 2293, message through the contact page, or email info@twelveboardstore.com.au. The Team Pro MK has enough fit adjustability (Power Tongue Stiffener, Internal Ankle Support, dual-zone TLS) that many apparent fit issues can be dialled without a return. If the boot genuinely isn't right for your foot, we'll swap it. Boots must be unworn outside — lodge floors and carpet only — and in original condition.

Is the Team Pro MK too stiff for all-mountain riding — or is it just for park?
The Team Pro MK is rated 8/10 Response with a 9/10 Comfort — and that comfort rating is what sets it apart from most boots at this response level. Marcus Kleveland's riding style spans from mini-shred local days to X-Games big air, which means he needed a boot that could handle technical park performance without beating him up on anything other than perfect landings. The result is a boot that is genuinely versatile: stiff enough for progression-focused park riding, responsive enough for carving groomers and charging all-mountain terrain, and comfortable enough to wear all day. The Power Tongue Stiffener is the key to flexibility — leave it in for maximum response on a dedicated park day, pull it out for a slightly more relaxed character on a mixed all-mountain day. At Buller or Falls Creek on a firm morning, this boot drives turns with real authority. In the park or on natural features, the Air Dampening and Cloud 9 liner make it as comfortable as anything at this performance level.
