Product Details
Flex
Flex Rating: 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – A medium-stiff flex for responsiveness and support.
Fit
1:1 Firm Flex PowerUP Tongue – For greater rebound, durability, fit, response and support.
Focus Cuff – Boosting heel hold by hugging that sweet spot around your ankle, the Focus Cuff rides slightly higher on your ankle for increased response.
GripLITE Backstay – Creates a snug interface between the boot and the highback. Made of rubber, the Backstay also shaves weight off the boot. The result is a more direct energy transfer from boot to binding to board for reduced rider fatigue.
Rad Pad – The pad is located on the top of your instep, right where the internal laces exert the most pressure, a Rad Pad has pre-curved panels for extra comfort, support and long-wear.
Total Comfort Construction – Get an instantly broken-in feel right out of the box. Total Comfort's industry-exclusive construction eliminates the break-in period for a fit that feels just as good from opening day to day 100.
Liner
Imprint™ 3 Liner – Focus Cuff Heel Hold System with Velcro® J-Bar Interface and Inner Lace Lock // Plush Cuff 1.0 // Sock Lock // Rad Pad for lace comfort // Velcro® Liner Closure // Level 2 Molded EVA footbed with ESS Support Shank and Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating // Heat-Moldable
Heat-Moldable – Burton's Imprint™ liners can be ridden right out of the box. For a custom fit head to your local snowboard shop to use Burton's EMU heat-molding system.
Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating – Antimicrobial coating on the lining of the boot fabric keeps your boots from creating their own mini-ecosystem of stink by preventing the growth of odor-causing bacteria.
Lacing System
Dual Zone Boa® Coiler™ Closure System – Quick, easy, and effective lace adjustment is only a dial away with the trusted dependability of the Boa® Coiler™ brand closure system. Available in single and dual zone setups, the system quickly loosens or tightens with simple twists of the Boa® dial.
New England Ropes – American-made, natural fiber ropes power Burton's Speed Zone™ systems. Virtually indestructible, New England Ropes' laces are the same stuff used by stunt men, firefighters, and rescue teams.
Boa® Lockdown Lacing – A Burton-exclusive that increases heel hold by integrating three distinct lacing zones with a single crank-able dial. Tightening all zones, (upper, lower and Achilles) simultaneously results in a secure fit with consistent comfort all day.
Footbed
ESS Support Shank – This is an added support feature to help soften hard landings.
Level 2 EVA Footbed – EVA Footbeds are lightweight, long-lasting and absorb shock.
Sleeping Bag Reflective Foil – This low-profile and lightweight underfoot technology reflects heat back to the feet, improving both warmth and comfort when faced with cold conditions.
Sole
B3 Gel – In the heel, B3 Gel dramatically dampens vibrations and absorbs impacts. Formulated to withstand repeated impacts without breaking down or hardening up in cold temperatures.
EST® Optimized – EST® goes beyond bindings by optimizing the soles on select boots for a more direct connection. Lower-profile, lighter weight, and with a reduced ramp angle, EST® lowers your center of gravity and improves feel. All without sacrificing an ounce of cushioning thanks to ultra-dampening B3 Gel inserts.
ReBounce Cushioning – Cushioning placed in the shell of the boot gives you an added layer of impact protection. The cushioning remains soft and warm in cold temperatures by the use of heat-reflective materials.
Shrinkage™ Footprint Reduction Technology – This reduces the boot's overall footprint one full size, meaning a men's size 10 fits like a size 10 but has the footprint of a typical size 9. Shorter, lighter, sleeker - never suffer from toe drag again.
Vibram® EcoStep™ – Made of 30% recycled materials. This outsole has excellent grip and traction from rubber ice spikes but remains lightweight. ReBounce Cushioning, EVA and B3 Gel in the heel and toe area for extra comfort.
Additional Features
Snow-Proof Internal Gusset – All Burton boot tongues feature an internal gusset construction to completely seal the lower zone of the boot, keeping your feet warm and dry.
