Burton Tourist 2022 Snowboard Boots black

The name of the Burton Tourist could be a bit misleading for some, but rest assured that this is no boot for people that come to the mountains for a couple of turns and a lot of après ski.

The tourist is there for dedicated splitboarders and backcountry adventurers that are committed and not afraid to hike for their lines. Riders like these deserve a boot that is as dedicated and committed as they are themselves. Burton made sure that all the features are included in the development of this ultimate splitboarding boot, with innovations that improve both climbing and riding. More negative flex than any other boot in the line enhances glide in the skintrack, while a heel welt adds cramp-on compatibility. An array of insulating features are key on pre-dawn starts or snow camp missions. Developed with Spark R&D, the Tourist sticks to the same trusted Driver X sole that has developed a decade-long cult following with the backcountry crowd.

Outer boot
For greater rebound and durability, the Tourist features the Firm Flex Power Up Tongue. While an Increased Negative Flex improves glide and comfort in touring mode. The Vibram EcoStep Rubber Outsole provides the legendary grip and feel Vibram® is famous for in a lighter weight and 30% recycled construction. This outsole also includes the added rebound and cushioning of dual zone EVA and B3 Gel in the heel and toe as well as a Heel Welt for cramp-on attachment and Rubber Ice Spikes for increased grip while hiking slippery surfaces. The ESS added Support Shank reduces fatigue while preventing your arch from collapsing on itself when you bomb drop a 40-footer.

Liner
The Life Liner features a DRYRIDE Heat Cycle™ Lining. With this new breathable inner-lining technology that utilizes interwoven thermally activated carbon thread. Body heat is captured, radiated, and reflected inward to keep feet warmer while also wicking heat-robbing moisture outward for all day comfort. Ankle support and inner cuff stability is mandatory in a pro-level boot. Burton’s solution is the Tuff Cuff, which increases heel hold and wraps the ankle with medial and lateral support while still flexing freely from toe to heel. Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating inhibits foul odors. Your feet (and your friends) will thank you for buying a boot with this technology.
