The
Photon Boa boot is for those who wish to
dial-in comfort and fit to the precise click of
the Boa Coiler closure system. Hard
chargers who prefer response that feels
fused to the foot will appreciate the
cranked-up power of Lockdown Lacing,
which increases heel hold and
customization with three distinct
adjustment zones. Get the traction
required for hiking out of the park and into
the sidecountry with the Vibram EcoStep
rubber outsole backed by B3 Gel
cushioning. Sleeping Bag heat-reflective
foil brings it all together by harnessing
your body's warmth to keep you out on
the hill where you want to be.
Features
Stiff Flex: 7 (1
Soft - 10 Stiff) – Aggressive and
responsive for quick edge engagement and
control at speed.
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.
Lightweight Power
Panels – To ensure a consistent flex from
day 1 to 100, Burton Imprint and Life liners
feature strategically placed Power Panels
that, even after being deeply flexed,
return to their original
position.
DryRide Heat Cycle
Lining – Warmth and wicking are two key
traits for on-snow comfort. Burton's
breathable inner-lining technology utilizes
interwoven thermally activated carbon
thread to capture, radiate, and reflect
body heat inward to keep feet warmer
while also wicking heat-robbing moisture
outward. Look for varying amounts and
performance level of each
liner.
Focus Cuff – Boosting heel-
hold by hugging that sweet spot around
your ankle, the Focus Cuff rides slightly
higher on your ankle than the Lock-UP Cuff
for increased response.

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 day 1 to day
100.
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.
1:1 Firm Flex PowerUP
Tongue – Burton offers 1:1 lasting on
every boot. It means every half and full
size shell, tongue, and out sole offer a
precise fit that is not as common as one
would think. Drop your loot on a Burton
boot and you won't be stuck with the slop
of a mismatched shell and liner. PowerUP
tongues feature additional dual-density
material for rebound and
durability.
Boa System – A highly
dependable lacing system that can be
adjusted at a moment's notice anytime,
anywhere. The simple twist of the knob at
the top of the boot strategically tightens in
just the right places.
Dual Zone
Boa System with Coiler Technology – All
Burton men`s, women`s, and youth boots
with Boa feature the virtually
indestructible, Warrantied for Life
performance of Burton-exclusive New
England Rope laces. Built with a
redesigned inner Coiler spool to route the
laces, the dial-it-in system retains its quick,
easy, and effective lace adjustment.
Natural fiber ropes equal a more natural
flex and feel for greater all-day
comfort.
EST Optimized Midsole –
EST goes beyond bindings by drawing
inspiration from the surf/skate heritage of
snowboarding and giving you a more direct
connection to your board. By eliminating
the ramp angle of your outsole, EST lowers
your center of gravity, improves board
feel, and creates a more surf/skate-like
feel. All without sacrificing an ounce of
cushioning thanks to ultra-dampening
ReBounce and B3 Gel inserts.
B3
Gel – Ultimate dampening formulated to
withstand repeated impacts without
breaking down or hardening up in cold
temps.
ReBounce Cushioning –
This Burton-exclusive brings cushioning
closer to your foot than ever before by
placing it within the shell of the boot for an
added layer of impact protection that sits
directly below your foot. Added warmth
and consistent performance in cold
temperatures is achieved by wrapping it in
a heat-reflective material that keeps the
cushioning soft and
effective.
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.
Level 2 Molded EVA
Footbed – EVA Footbeds are lightweight,
long-lasting, and absorb
shock.
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.
