Burton outfitted the Men’s Ion Snowboard Boot with a low-profile EST midsole to bring you closer to your board for response and better board feel. Burton added its RX Adjustable Cushioning System to these boots, which enables you to choose your padding based on snow conditions or the kind of riding you’re doing. Using the system is simple: before you pull on your Ions, take out the liners, and put either the included gel or air cartridges into the heel chambers.
- Burton’s RX adjustable system lets you choose the dampening of B3 Gel or the responsiveness and cushioning of air
- Speed Zone zonal lacing lets you adjust how tight you want your boots around your insteps and ankles
- Power Spine backstays on the boot shells offer excellent lateral and medial response and support
- The heat-moldable Imprint 4 liners feature Focus Cuffs that hug your ankles to enhance heel hold
- The liners’ EZ Entry panels reduce friction so you don’t feel like you’re trying to shove your feet into women’s boots
- InfiniFIT EVA soles in the liners cushion feet and won’t pack out after half a season
- Power Panels in the liners ensure these boots retain the same flex, rebound, and support on day 101 as you experienced on day one
- Outlast Adaptive Comfort Technology means these boots’ liners are smart enough to absorb excess heat and then release that heat when your feet get cold.
Bottom Line: These boots have more high-tech features than the average rocket-ship.

The ion has always been one of my favorite boot models. I've owned 3 pairs and have always been very happy with them. The ion is the second most supportive and responsive boot burton makes. It the ideal boot for all terrain riding although i rocked em in the park alot. The reason I gave this boot 4 stars was because this years model has a very different fit than previous years. It did not fit my foot as well as it used to but everyone's foot is different so try these on and if they fit good buy em you'll be stoked!
Is it true that Burton boots pack out a whole lot? Should I
Is it true that Burton boots pack out a whole lot? Should I be downsizing when buying Ions?

This is a difficult question. Burton boots are supper comfortable, and they do pack out a bit. I wouldn't say a whole lot but there is some. When buying boots, it is difficult to decide on downsizing. The problem is, if you do downsize and they don't packout as much as you think they will, they you are done for. The best thing to do is to get the size you know your foot is. I wear 9.5 shoes, but i know they are loose on me. For boots, I run 9s. I like to wear my shoes loose. Decide what size your feet are then get the corresponding size.

I've been sporting the Burton ION's now for the last 3 season. They are an excellent fit and I've yet to find another pair of boots to rival them for fit and comfort.
My original pair were the regular lace-up's and I never had any problems with them. They just got worn out!
My 2nd pair sported the Speed Zone lacing system which is quicker, and much better at distributing pressure evenly across the boot. The only downside was that the early boots suffered from a lot of problems with the plastic guide for the lace being pulled out of the boot when you pull the lace system. Burton replaced the boots without any fuss and the 2nd pair have lasted out 12 weeks now!
The only other issue I have is that over the 12 weeks the boots have really softened up... this is not a problem as long as you keep hold of the bones that slide into the tongues of the boot
I would have give the Burton ION's only 3 stars, but the excellent warranty pushes to the boots to "pretty cool" - 4 stars
After reading a bunch reviews on Burton boots, I've found
After reading a bunch reviews on Burton boots, I've found that people seem to have a lot of problems with their "Speed-Zone Lacing" deals (breakage, looseness, etc.). I've ridden some Motos for 2 seasons (with 30+ days on snow for this one), and I have never had any problems at all with my laces. I step out of my shoes, get into my boots and - BAM! - I'm good to go. I mean, they do get loose after a couple hours, but I don't find it to be that much of a problem.
So anyway, I want to know if the laces on these boots are any different. Are they really weaker or something (I mean, weaker than my Motos. Obviously they're weaker than traditional laces), or if everyone's just yanking too hard on their lacey-pully jobs or riding in some way that's somehow super-abusive to them? Should I buy these since I haven't had any problems with the speed-lacing, even though everyone else seems to?

There is no way the Ion boots would have a weaker lace system than the Motos. The Ion is a way better boot. You will be stoked to get into these. Super comfortable with great response. The laces only break if they get cut by something i.e. your edges or tree branches. If this happens, your local shop can easily replace them for you. The process takes around 30 mins. Get these boots, they are awesome.

I've only spent two days in my Ions, but I like them a lot. Very comfortable boot, and I like the speed-lacing system, despite being initially skeptical. They are a pretty stiff boot, and I feel like I have very good control without have to tighten the laces to the point of being uncomfortable, as I have with other boots.
All the materials are comfortable, and seem to be of good quality.
Only downside was the price, but got them for 40% off at the end of the season.

These are pretty good boots. I have had 3 pairs of ions and I do prefer traditional lace-up boots. The eyelets pulled out after about 2 months. Burton will warranty, but it takes awhile. The boot is comfortable and very compact, which means you will probably have to adjust your straps before you take these out for the first time. Make sure you try them in your bindings and secure a good fit before you shred the ganr.
Great Boot!

Great boots. Warm, kept my foot dry. I have short, fat feet. I wear 10 1/2 shoe size, a 10 fits me perfectly. I gave it a 4 star because the laces felt a little flimsy for a $400 boot and it's a big pain for me to get my feet into the boot compared to some others Ive used. Super comfortable, looks great and cleans easily too!
Change me.
