Vans Snow - BOA Technology

As the leader in alternative closure for snowboard boots, Vans offers the most proven and versatile line of BOA options available. New for this season is the Hybrid BOA Closure System in the Infuse, Revere and Ferra styles. No other lacing system provides the level of versatility and performance benefits that the range of Vans BOA systems offer. Proven performance and superior fit, multiple zonal options, quick and easy on-the-fly one-handed micro-adjustability—all backed by a lifetime guarantee.

BOA Focus

Featured on the Men's Cirro, two reels operate 3 specific zones of closure for the ultimate in custom fit adjustment. Unlike other Focus options on the market, all instep components have been eliminated from the Vans system to allow for the addition of asymmetrical articulation, providing additional flex to the medial side while maintaining lateral support and response.

Double BOA

Featured on the Men's Aura and Women's Aura boots, two reels control 2 specific zones of closure. The tongue dial controls the upper portion of the boot while the side-mounted dial adjusts the lower portion, providing greater freedom of flex and articulation.

Hybrid BOA

Featured on the Infuse, Revere, and Women's Ferra, the Hybrid BOA configuration represents the best of both worlds, combining traditional laces and a BOA closure that is focused primarily on the critical instep area of the boot. This configuration allows riders to lace their boots tighter than with traditional laces only, as well as allowing them to make on-the-fly instep adjustments.

BOA Power Cuff

Featured on the Men's Matlock and Women's Kira, the Power Strap controls upper closure while the remote side-mounted BOA reel controls the instep and forefoot closure. Two easy and quick adjustments combine for the best of both worlds.

BOA Coiler

Featured on the Men's Encore and Women's Encore and Women's Extent, this tongue-mounted single reel system utilizes a spring-loaded lace spool to automatically retract the lace cable slack for quick and efficient closure. Different lace guide radiuses are used to optimize closure force in specific areas of the boot.

BOA Benefits

BOA provides custom-comfort with smooth, even closure and no pressure points. Lace your boot as tight as you want and with ease for unequalled fit and without a tangle of excess lace.

The lace adjusts through the guides when the boot is flexed, creating a suspension system for your lower leg while allowing the boot to flex naturally at the same time.

Once locked into place, BOA reels and laces stay that way.

Quick to get on, quick to get off. BOA saves time.
