Lassie snowboards: model overview
Lassie is a Finnish brand that sews membrane outerwear, thermal underwear, fleece underwear, as well as hats and footwear for children. Not so long ago, in the slushy weather of the end of autumn - the beginning of winter, more and more mothers began to choose snowboots from this company instead of the usual rubber boots for their children.
Peculiarities
Snowboots are a hybrid of rubber boots and insulated membrane boots.
The lower part of the snowboots looks like an overshoe made of expanded thermoplastic rubber. The raised sole makes such boots very stable, prevents the feet from sliding on ice or loose snow, preventing falls.
The top of the boot is made of dense textile material coated with moisture and dirt-repellent impregnation.
The inside of the shoes is insulated with faux fur.
For ease of dressing, the Lassie snowboards are not clasped. Instead, there is an elastic band with a stopper in the upper part. It helps to adjust the volume of the boot to the child's leg and prevent water and dirt from entering the boot.
All snowboards from this manufacturer have reflective fabric inserts, which will help make your child visible in the dark.
As for the temperature regime, the manufacturer declares the possibility of using such boots at temperatures from +10 to - 15 C. Hence the conclusion that snowboots are both autumn and winter shoes.
In fact, it all depends on the individual characteristics of a particular child, as well as on the degree of additional insulation.
Model overview
Each season, the manufacturer prepares new models of snowboots for its little buyers by improving and updating the existing ones. The waterproof boots are available in colors for both girls and boys.
The size range is represented by shoes from 22 to 38 in accordance with European sizes.
In the new season 2018–2019. presents the Lassie Coldwell line of snowboards in two colors with a bright print for boys and girls.
There are 2 colors for boys:
- black;
- Navy blue.

A distinctive feature of the boots from the new collection is the finish made of natural suede. And also, instead of the usual insole in the boots, there is a convenient removable inner sock made of bright fleece.
The price of Lassie snowboards from the new collection varies from 2 to 2.5 thousand rubles.
You can buy boots both on the official website of the manufacturer or on Internet sites, and in chain children's stores.
How to choose?
Of course, when choosing a particular model of snowboots, the child's approval is a fundamental factor.
And if the child can figure out the model and colors of waterproof boots himself, then when choosing a suitable size, you cannot do without the help of an adult.
To determine the size of your snowboots, you need to measure your child's foot. To do this, you need to stand on a flat surface. The heel should rest against the wall.
Measurements should be started from the most protruding part of the heel to the longest toe.
The indicator, measured in centimeters, will be the length of the foot.
For the correct selection of snowboots, add 0.5 cm to the resulting figure so that you can fit a sock and 1.0 cm for growth.
The resulting figure must be compared with the size grid provided by the manufacturer and choose the appropriate shoe size.
| European shoe size | Insole length, cm. |
|---|---|
| 22 | 14,7 |
| 23 | 15,3 |
| 24 | 16,0 |
| 25 | 16,7 |
| 26 | 17,3 |
| 27 | 18,0 |
| 28 | 18,7 |
| 29 | 19,3 |
| 30 | 20,0 |
| 31 | 20,7 |
| 32 | 21,3 |
| 33 | 22,0 |
| 34 | 22,7 |
| 35 | 23,3 |
| 36 | 24,0 |
| 37 | 24,7 |
| 38 | 25,3 |
All Lassie shoes are full-size. Since the bottom of the snowboots is made in the shape of a galoshes, the heel is somewhat softer. Therefore, when buying, you should not choose a model with a large margin in length, otherwise the shoes will fall off the feet, as a result of which the child will be uncomfortable.
By giving preference to a Finnish manufacturer when buying, you can get high-quality, inexpensive, warm and beautiful shoes that will last more than one season.
