Product Info

Don't be afraid to charge the heck out of your line in the powerful Burton Imperial Snowboard Boots. These monsters are made with strong, lightweight S4 shell panels that distribute strap pressure and give smooth, consistent flex season after season; good news for those who need a reliably stiff, responsive boot to go full aggro. Quick, easy lacing comes as standard with the Speed Zone™ lacing system so step in, strap up and get ready to rule the mountain.

Product Details

Flex

Stiff Flex: 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)Aggressive and responsive for quick edge engagement and control at speed.

Fit

Total Comfort ConstructionGet 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.

S4 Shell PanelsStart strong, stay strong. That's S4. Super light and resilient, these shell panels on the Imperial evenly distribute strap pressure to maximize rebound and resist breakdown for consistent flex, season after season.

1:1 Firm Flex PowerUP TongueBurton 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.

Liner

Imprint™ 3 LinerDryRIDE Heat Cycle™ Lining | Focus Cuff Heel Hold System with Velcro® J-Bar Interface and Inner Lace Lock | Plush Cuff 1.0 (women's only) | Lightweight Power Panels | Velcro® Liner Closure | Level 2 Molded EVA Footbed with ESS Support Shank and Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating | Heat-Moldable

DryRide Heat Cycle™ LiningWarmth 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 CuffBoosting 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.

Lightweight Power PanelsTo 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.

Aegis™ Antimicrobial CoatingAntimicrobial 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.

Lacing System

Speed Zone™ LacingStrong with a low-profile, Burton's Speed-Zone™ Lacing features lightning fast lacing control while allowing you to customize the fit of the upper and lower zone in seconds. More power means more rebound, wrap and response with less lacing effort.

Exclusive New England Rope LacesAmerican-made, natural fiber ropes power Burton's closure systems. Virtually indestructible, New England Ropes' laces are the same stuff used by stunt men, firefighters, and rescue teams.

Footbed

Level 2 Molded EVA FootbedEVA Footbeds are lightweight, long-lasting, and absorb shock.

Sole

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.

B3 GelUltimate dampening formulated to withstand repeated impacts without breaking down or hardening up in cold temps.

Sleeping Bag Reflective FoilThis low-profile and lightweight underfoot technology reflects heat back to the feet, improving both warmth and comfort when faced with cold conditions.

Shrinkage™ Footprint Reduction TechnologyThis reduces the boot's overall footprint one full size, meaning a men's size 10 fits like a size 10 but has the footprint of a typical size 9. Shorter, lighter, sleeker - never suffer from toe drag again.

EST® Optimized MidsoleEST® 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.

Additional Features

Snow-Proof Internal GussetAll Burton boot tongues feature an internal gusset construction to completely seal the lower zone of the boot, keeping your feet warm and dry.
