Secure, Comfortable Fit
Boa® Lockdown feature routes lacing toward the heel for a snug, comfortable fit around the ankle and secure heel hold down.
Warm, Dry Feet
Lightweight, heat-moldable liners offer a custom fit with the tech to reflect heat and wick sweat to keep your feet warm and dry all day, all season.
Features:
LACING:
Dual Zone Boa® Lockdown
Boa Coiler Closure System Powered by Burton Exclusive New England Ropes
A Burton-exclusive upgrade to BOA®, Lockdown Lacing increases heel hold by integrating three distinct lacing zones with a single crank-able dial.
Tightening all zones (upper, lower and heel/Achilles) both rapidly and simultaneously results in a secure and consistent fit throughout the boot with greater hold in the heel pocket for an overall more comfortable feel.
LINER:
Imprint™ 3 with Focus Cuff
heat-moldable liner provides moisture management and added wicking control and features a hook-and-loop closure system for a snug fit and lightweight power panels for elevated response and support.
Boosting heel-hold by hugging that sweet spot around your ankle, the Focus Cuff rides slightly higher on your ankle for increased response.
CUSHIONING
Vibram Traction Lug with Sleeping Bag Reflective Foil
Vibram® Traction Lug outsole features Vibram EcoStep rubber for full rubber coverage under your foot.
With an EST construction and added tread and surface changes to the sides of key lugs, this outsole offers the best traction in the Burton line
This low profile and lightweight underfoot shield reflect heats back to the feet, improving both warmth and comfort when faced with cold conditions.
EST 0mm Heel Rise
EST goes beyond bindings by drawing inspiration from the surf / skate heritage of snowboarding and giving you a more direct connection to your boards.

All without sacrificing an ounce of cushioning thanks to ultra dampening ReBounce and B3 Gel inserts.

Pros of BOA® Lacing
It is easy to fine-tune tightness with micro-adjustments
Pop out the coiler for quick and easy comfort on the lift or during après
All boot adjustments can be made while wearing gloves/mittens
A single-coiler system tightens and loosens evenly across the entire foot
Cons of BOA®
Lacing
The coiler interface may take a couple of uses before it feels intuitive
It can be easy to over-tighten with BOA® and cause foot fatigue
A single-coiler system does not allow for independent tightness of the upper and lower zones
The BOA® coiler sticks off the boot and can get caught on things
Replacing a broken coiler or cable requires additional parts and can be complicated
BOA® lacing snowboard boots are generally more expensive
