Specifications
- Support level: high stiffness
- Purpose: All-mountain
- Step On® - jump in and go! This Burton binding and boot system offers you unprecedented comfort and performance on any terrain. Fellow skiers will never have to wait for you to tighten your binding again.
- Step On backstay - a flexible and reliable platform on the heel to connect the boots to the binding
- Step On sole - protrusions in the front part of the boot that fit securely into the binding
- Cuff Clips - so that your pants do not get in the way when you clip them into the binding, you will find a clip on the boot that you can easily attach them to.
- Speed Zone™ lacing - fast lacing with the possibility of perfectly adjusting the tightness of the upper and lower part. New England Ropes laces are virtually indestructible.
- Men's Life Liner - made of thermoformable and lightweight Ultralon Performance Foam®, which ensures maximum durability and performance in combination with comfort and softness.
- DRYRIDE Heat Cycle™ lining - maintains and supports warmth, reflects body heat inward and at the same time takes care of moisture removal.
- Comfortable construction - guarantees better contact with the board, responsiveness and comfort from the first time you put them on. A snow-resistant inner gusset protects the bottom of the boot and keeps your feet dry and warm.
- Tongue 1:1 Firm flex PowerUp - perfectly fitting connection between boot and tongue eliminates the need for adjustments during the ride.
- Vibram® Traction Lug EcoStep™ sole - offers the most reliable traction of any Burton boot, adds confidence on icy parking lots and includes traction lugs that extend beyond the sole
- AutoCANT cushioning - uses dual-density EVA material that allows the foot to assume a natural, relaxed position for greater comfort, less fatigue and more direct control of the board.
- Snugger Strap - the outer strap around the ankle is designed to increase comfort and adjust the balanced stiffness and front flex using the BOA H4 wheel. On the cable car, you simply loosen the strap and let your legs rest.
- Tuff Cuff Lite - the cuff placed on the ankle guarantees better stability and heel hold, and also allows free transfer of power from the toe to the heel.
- EST® sole - zero slope sole helps lower the center of gravity and improves contact with the board for a surf/skate feel. Thanks to the ReBounce layer and B3 Gel insoles, the boot provides comfort and shock absorption.
- Shrinkage Footprint Reduction Technology - reduces the footprint of the boot by one whole number. It means that a size 10 is really a size 10, but the footprint is a size 9. Shorter, lighter and sleeker for a perfect fit.
- Reflective foil - a low-profile and light foil underfoot reflects heat back for comfort even at low temperatures.
- Supportive and firm flex - high stiffness of the shoe for high responsiveness and speed
- External panel to reduce pressure points

How to choose snowboard boots
Choosing new snowboard boots? It doesn't have to be a big unknown. There are several parameters that are crucial to choosing the right boots. The main ones are size and overall flex.
Check out our video tutorial
In addition to the article, check out the video tutorial in which our advisor Dominik tells you what you should consider when choosing snowboard boots »
Boot size
The size chart, which you can find in the detailed description of all snowboard boots, will help you choose the right size. If you don't know the size of your foot according to the chart (UK, US, EUR), you can easily measure it at home. Take a ruler or a meter and measure your entire foot from the heel to the end of the longest finger. The MONDO sizing in the table is given in centimeters. The boot should then be half a centimeter larger than your foot.
Keep in mind that it is important that you try the snowboard boots in socks in which you will later ride. Tighten the inner shoe as much as possible and fasten the boot as firmly as if you were going straight down the slope. The shoe should hug the leg perfectly after the tightening. Even before you go on your first snowboarding trip, it's good to put the boots on at home and walk in them for a while. Once you spend about half an hour in them, you should immediately see if the boots fit well and don't squeeze your feet. Your foot must not move in the boot and neither should your heel lift. It is also good to know that it is necessary to spend more time choosing women's boots compared to men's boots. Women's feet have different shapes, so they need enough time and space to choose the appropriate snowboard boots. And the last, but a very important detail: watch out for the difference between the right and the left foot. Always therefore try both boots.
Even if you choose the right size, your boot may not fit perfectly. It may be too wide, low in the instep area, or it will squeeze your ankle - there are many reasons why not each pair in the world will fit you and it is hard to estimate them all in advance. Therefore, we try to do our best to make your purchase as trouble-free as possible. If you buy snowboard boots from our store that don't fit you, you have the opportunity to replace them, or we will provide you with the full refund. Just send the boots back with a proof of the purchase. If you happen to find yourself in this situation, you can find more information in the Returns section.
Flex (stiffness) of the boot
The stiffness of the snowboard boot is related to the specific riding style on the slope. Freestyle boots are softer, which allows for greater freedom at bends over the tongue of the boot. For freeride, that is, fast and aggressive riding, stiffer boots are better, giving you more support through the tongue and the ankle area.
Classic laces, Boa, or Fast Lace system?
Manufacturers of snowboard boots offer along with classic laces also various fast lacing systems. Thanks to them, it is possible to tighten the boot much faster and with less effort. That way you can spend more time riding. The first of them is fast lacing system (Fast Lace or ATOP). Some systems - such as the Boa system of Nidecker and Burton - even allow the tightening of the instep and shin area separately. Fast lacing systems are reliable and proven, but as it goes with the quality gear, the boots with such systems are also more costly.
Boot liners
For the ultimate in comfort on the hill, don't forget about the boot liners. They have cushioning properties, but are also anatomically shaped, breathable and support the foot arch. In short, it's all about the details. At the moment, you can get snowboard boot liners in all sizes, so whether you have small or big feet, you will definitely find the right ones!
