Cold feet? Throw a Little Hottie into the Hot Pockets and defrost your piggies to keep you riding all day with the warmest toes on the mountain.
Flex
Flex Rating: 4 (1 Softest - 10 Stiffest) - A medium flex that is forgiving yet still capable of handling some hard shredding
Fit
Women's Specific True Fit Design - Enjoy a more harmonious connection with Burton's True Fit™ women boards, boots, and bindings. True Fit means that every element - from boot liners to lace guides, baseplate to strap designs, boards shapes to flex profiles - has been designed and engineered for the way women ride. Because when it fits right, it rides better.
Crossbone Cuff - Balances the free-flexing mobility of an articulating cuff with lateral support of ultra-light Jumper Cables (the same stuff found in Burton's high-end boards). The benefits of ollie pop and pressing power associated with winged hi-backs are brought to the boot itself, resulting in the ability to power up with less effort, and still get tweak-friendly freedom.
Articulating Cuff - Allowing the upper and lower zones of the boot to flex independently creates fluid forward motion, minimizes shell distortion, and maximizes heel hold and response.
Flex Spine Backstay - Get effortless medial and lateral mobility with ample edge-to-edge support for when it's time to throw down the landing gear.
Stay Puft Tongue Construction - Tuck that knee and tweak it with the smoother forward motion and cush comfort of this progressive flexing upper tongue construction.
Soft Flex Thin Profile 3D® Molded Tongue - Adjusting the profile of the tongue's thickness controls its flex, enhances its ability to wrap, and reduces shell / liner stack-up for improved comfort.
Total Comfort Construction - Get 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 opening day to day 100.
Liner
Imprint 2 Liner - Lock-up Cuff and Inner Lace Lock // Plush Cuff 1.0 // Lightweight Power Panels // Hot Pockets // Velcro® Liner Closure // Level 1 Molded EVA Footbed // Heat-Moldable
Lock-Up Cuff - This super low-profile inner cuff carries the laces across the forefoot and ankle for ultimate heel hold with effortless entry and exit.
Inner Lace Lock - Quick-lock design keeps your heels locked down all day. Exit's a cinch with the one-handed release tab.
Plush Cuff 1.0 - The Plush Cuff 1.0 hugs your calf like no other thanks to a combination of medial and lateral neoprene stretch zones and super soft fur lining.
Power Panel Technology - To ensure a consistent flex from day 1 to 100, Burton Imprint™ liners feature strategically placed Power Panels that, even after being deeply flexed, return to their orgiinal position.
Hot Pockets - Built to accommodate a disposable toe warmer! Just slip a Little Hotties® toe warmer into the neoprene sleeve on the top of your foot and feel the heat.
Heat Moldable - Whether you have funky cankles or a grotesque sixth toe, your feet will be wrapped with comfort in this boot. Ride them right out of the box or shape them to your foot with Burton's EMU heat-molding system, found at your local shop.

While snowboard boots are arguably more comfortable than ski boots, in most cases they still do not fit exactly the same as a street shoe and will not be as comfortable. Remember that the conversion chart is approximate and this information is only meant to be a starting point. With slight variances from one boot model to another and every persons foot being unique we cannot guarantee that choosing a size solely based on this guide will result in a perfectly fit boot.
