Boa system

By Ranked #71 - Men's Hiking Shoes November 28, 2008

I owned two pairs of shoes with the Boa system and both of them broke within months of buying them. The first pair (a now discontinued trail model) broke the wire and fabric. I replaced them with a pair of Plasmas, but the wire snapped pretty quickly. Love the shoe and the fit, but the wiring needs to be more sturdy, along with the fabric that holds the wire.
