Burton Moto

I normally ride everywhere but the park, but I decided to get a park set up this year. I'm used to riding SL9's which are super light and ridiculously stiff. These boots were real easy to break in, light enough, comfy, and warm. The only problem I have with these boots is the speed zone lacing. They work great and hold tight all day long, but there's only 1 pull handle and the pocket to tuck the laces in is out of the way. You pull the handle of the speed zone laces tight on the right side of your boot and you tuck in everything in a pocket on the left side of the boot. So, there's a bunch of lacing that crosses your shin that you have to do something with. I tucked mine in between the liner and shell. Comparably, the SL9's have a have 2 handles on each side of your leg. 1 for each section of the boot. There's also 2 pockets where you can stash all the extra lacing and handle, so there's no way any of the laces can come loose, or rub up against you. Other than the lacing going across your leg, these boots are comfy, warm, hold your feet well, and are a steal on Dogfunk!

I'm an intermediate rider who has been renting for the past 3 years and finally sprung to buy my own gear. I've always rented burton boots and have always been a size 10. I wore these boots around the house for a day or so when I first got them. Naturally they were a bit tight at first but after a few hours they were actually pretty comfortable. When I took them to the slopes, I started getting some gnarly pain on the ball of my foot and the back of my calf. This might actually be the fault of the bindings. When I loosened up the boots, however, it helped. Of course then my boots were pretty damn loose. I know a lot of people hate that, but it works for me just fine. As long as they aren't in any danger of coming off :) The lacing system is really simple. I still haven't decided if I like it more or less than the traditional lacing. It's definitely faster... but I'm not sure if it requires constant attention yet.

Great pair for a beginner and you can't bet the price. First time I tried these one they were the worst fitting pair I have tried; user error. After adequately loosening the lace and fit with snowboard sock they were great. Dislike the fact that there is no lace hole on the ankle section, that would make them pretty snug. Having difficulties tightening the lower zone, again that angle lacing hole would really help. However, for a beginner those same deficiency will prevent you from getting sprain or broken ankle on a bad spill. All that said, they keep my feet warm every on the closets days. So far, we've had -12 to -24 degree and I didn't have to worry about feet getting cold once. Again for the price, these are great boots for beginners on a budget.

For the price, I found this to be a damn fine boot! The break in period was about a two day stretch. I am normally a 9.5/10 (regular shoes), but needed a 10.5 in these guys. The first day I had to keep stopping and re-tightening them. I have not had hem fitted, which may alleviate some of the issues I had. They were super easy to walk in and the straps were as easy as can be imagined. Seemed difficult to get them SUPER tight, if you wanted them that way! Worked good with the Custom bindings as well! Certainly were a great beg/int boot. They flexed a little, but to be expected on a lower end boot.

I picked up last years model - and have put about 30 full days in them. To start, the single lace cable system works well. There is an upper zone that goes from the ankle up the shin, and a lower zone covering the top of the foot. You are able to get a nice custom fit, and I never need to re-adjust after I first put them on. Nothing has broken/fallen off/malfunctioned all year and look forward to this season in them. Only drawback I'd say is that it is a stiffer boot, if you are looking for a new shoe for a freestyle setup - choose another.

the pair i got r too small but my brother go the same ones diffirent colours tho haha so im sending mine back to get a bigger size but they r prrety confturble they r fast to put on no lacing them up just pull back on th ecords thats pretty nice i wasntsure at first about the cords if they woudl handel it but they r doign pretty good i recomend this boots there nice and warm confffy and are fastr to put on you'll get one extra run in on th eslopes whiel your friends are still tieing their boots ahaha

Great entry-level boot, comfortable after pack-out and warm, stiff enough to control an entry/intermediate board on the slopes rather than just the park with good bindings. The speed lacing system is a little wonky: once you figure out the best way to tighten / lock them they work great and get you out of the lodge fast as possible, but if you're careless the cables can come loose on the lift / hill. On the plus side you can tighten them easily with gloves on, so it's an easy fix.

Got these somewhat cheaper somewhere else on closeout, but they are good boots for a first timer. They are true to size. Using these and only Under Armour socks, I have been down to 15 degrees and my feet have stayed warm. Can't drive with them on, and they are sort of a pain to release versus my wife who paid the same price but has boots with the dial. When I get better I will get a better pair of boots, but these fit the purpose for know.

I rode these on the east coast on some groomers and they were fine, but once i got out to Colorado and hit some powder, and more challenging terrain, i found that my foot was moving around too much inside of the boot (Yes they are the right size). As someone who all mountain rides, I need quick response from my boots, but if my feet are moving around that increases the effort and time neccessary to make my board respond. They did not stay tight for long and it is kind of a pain to find a spot to put the cable ends. These boots put a serious damper on my weekend, buy them if you are a beginner or only riding groomers.

I've owned these boots for the last few years so I purchased these thinking they would be pretty similar... wrong. The single pull lacing is a joke compared to the two zone system of the previous year, and although I sized the boot correctly I am getting tons of heel lift. Looks like the Rulers will be getting at my bank account this year. On a positive note it is nice to know Backcountry.com will take care of my return, thanks guys!

they were ok boots until about halfway through the season when the speed lace thing ripped out. i mean i do ride about 5 times a week but i've never had a problem with any other boots. i got the burton sabbath and there awesome. deff not buying another pair of speedlace boots anytime soon

did not care for the lace syaytem at all... also were a bit smaller than i thought. I wear a 8.5 skate shoe ordered 9 in motot and it was too small. Nice looking boot tho!

They come loose during the day. My completely pulled out and broke in less than a month of ridding. Stick with traditional laces

i wore these boots for the first time at a railjam. they hurt and deffinatly felt like i wasnt in complete ccontrol

problems with the lasing and too much lasing. keep looking for either a zip or regular tied boot.

The Burton Moto is an entry level boot designed for the beginning rider. The first thing I should say about these boots is that they pack out fairly quickly; after about 8 days on the slopes, they were about a half size larger. By 10 days on the slopes, I was getting a bit of heel lift. The speedzone lacing is fast, but since this boot uses the speedzone express where there's only one pull cord, I found it somewhat difficult to adequately tighten the lower zone independently from the upper zone. I also found I had to tighten these boots after every few runs because the cord catch would loosen. These boots are very flexible which is good for a beginner or the park-rat. Unlike other reviewers, I found these boots very comfortable. There's only a single speedzone lacing pull on this boot, so you get a little bit less ability to control the tightening on different parts of the book. If you're a beginner, but you're relatively sure you'll be riding quite a bit, I would actually recommend spending a few more dollars to get a slightly higher end boot. These will work for the budget conscious rider though.

So I got these boots after reading the reviews and they got pretty high marks! I am not really sure what the people who wrote those reviews were wearing previously but these are not the boots for someone who has riding more than 2 seasons. I have been riding for 14 years and I thought I could get away with ridding a cheap pair of boots after riding Ions for the last 3 seasons. I was wrong! If you are just starting out these are great boots, If your have been riding awhile I would not settle for anything less than the Ruler.

I just started snowboarding, so I don't have much experience with different boots. These feel great and are easy to slip on and off. However, the complaints about the lacing system not staying tight are true. it's not a major issue, you just have to tighten them every couple of runs. I would recommend these, you can't beat the price.

These boots are pretty good, not the best in my opinion. They fit a little tight cause of the liner but it does stretch out a bit. As for the lacing system, it stays tight while you ride but there is no good place to put the ends and they usually end up dragging.

My husband normally wears an 8.5 and ordered an 8.5, but they're too small. We're ordering a 9, and we'll see how they fit!

i think that they are very comfortable but when im riding the boots always come loose around my ankles.

how do i take them back if i do not like them

these boots come loose too easily
