Customer Reviews Burton Mint Boa® Snowboard Boot

I'm a total beginner and hated the pair of rental boots that I received on the slopes. The difference between this soft, light, "girlie" boot and the heavy, uncomfortable, rigid boot that I had to rent was night and day. My normal shoe size is 7.5 but the 8 fit better. I'm looking forward to getting back on the snowboard but this time in comfort and style!

Runs a half size smaller I got a 9 but I wear a size 8,5 on hiking boots & 8 for running shoes. They are beautiful and super confortable!

The boots are of excellent quality. I have really narrow feet, so they were a little wide, but I would call that normal. Extremely lightweight and comfortable!

Great boots at a great price but sizing was off and they did not have one size up sadly

These were super comfortable, fit roughly true to size. I wear 7.5-8 in regular shoes and 7.5 was great in these. I returned them to get the limelight’s instead as I prefer stiffer boots, but these would have been a great pick as well if you like softer boots. The style is nice but I prefer the white soles on the limelight’s for more design. Overall I thought these were nice though when I tried them on.

Typically I'm a size 6.5 in shoes. The size 7 fit me pretty well. I have very wide feet so after a couple hours of snowboarding, my feet hurt a little bit but not to the point where I had to stop. I just tried to rest my feet when I could. Besides that, the Boa system is amazing. I used the Speed Lace Burton boot before but I find Boa must easier and faster. I could tighten my boots more quickly and easily than with Speed Lace, since all I had to do was lift my pants just above the wheel to tighten (I didn't have to lift my entire pant leg up above the boot before re-tightening). I felt comfortable re-tightening my boots every time (or every other time) I got off the ski lift. Getting your feet out of the boots is also quick and easy: you just un-lock the wheel, push the tongue out, pull on the red lace, and that's it. It's super simple. The style of the boot is simple and clean. I wish it came in dark grey but black works. As far as performance goes, the boots work great for me--I do intermediate and advanced trails and am a beginner in jumps. I snowboard 4-6 days per season. The boots are stiff enough to give me good control.

Definitely size up. The thermal interior boot is snug and your feet will swell when you board. So I would size a full size up.

Even though these are thermal fit, they are quite snug especially since you would be wearing them with thick socks and your feet swell during activity. Size a full size up.

Runs half size smaller

These are comfortable boots. I agree with others that they run a bit small but not a full size small. I ordered size 9 - normally wear a size 8 running shoe and my feet measure between 7.5/8. But the 9 was a bit long. I think 8.5 would probably be perfect. I am returning these because they hit my calves at an uncomfortable spot. I have had this happen before with snowboard boots - they hit too high on the calf and cause my calves to charlie horse/cramp while riding. So - although they are really comfortable they are going back. I don't think this is a fault of the boots since I have had this issue with other pairs.

the boots were wider than i expected and there are no inserts for J bars to make it tighter at the ankle area. my ankles kept slipping out. but the style is very nice and it is definitely a comfortable boot.
