Burton Ion Snowboard Boot - Men's

Item #BUR3279 | 106 in Stock
5 Star Rating

comfortable and well thought out

By Backcountry.com Employee January 20, 2005

With the heat-moldable inserts, these are the most comfortable paid of boots I’ve ever owned. I was skeptical of the lacing system at first, but after a few day’s use, it proves itself. No more battling with frozen fingers trying to tie knots, just yank on the strings and you’re set. They could have made the pull tabs a bit bigger and a bit stiffer; they cut into your fingers a little when you’re really pulling. They also could have color coded the upper and lower laces to make it a real no-brainer. But overall, a great boot. I’d like to give it a 4.75, but you can’t, so I’ll round up.
