Burton Ozone Snowboard Boot - Men's - 08/09 - 2008

Easily the most comfortable boots I've ever worn. They are not the last word on heel hold on my feet, but buttery soft inside.

WOW these are so comfortable, went to the local shop and threw in em in a heat molder and they fit absoultley perfect. ive been dealing with dead toes, crushed toes, and a bad pressure spot on all of my boots for the past few years and now all those problems are gone! (ordered true to size, didnt even pack out a half size, still snug n nice)...while riding they are very comfortable, i was weary about them because they are so soft, but once you get em laced up nice n tight, they are just as responisive as any other boots. but way more comfortable and perfect for buttering and just having a relaxed ride. took some tree runs to test response and they did great...Cushioning is awesome for hard landings. they arent too huge so they fit nicley into lots of bindings. Must be the most comfortable boots ever made, only problem is that the speed zone laces can undo themselves if you dont REALLY push em down into the cleats. BOTTOM LINE if you want happy feet, buy these boots

I'm reasonably happy with the Ozones. I bought mine a 1/2 size down from my shoe size and put custom orthotics in to take up some of the extra volume around my skinny foot. They have packed out to fit perfectly. The flex is a little on the soft side, but that should be expected from a freestyle boot. The overall ride and feel were what I was looking for. Somewhat responsive with decent board feel and a low profile sole. There is, however, a downside. The day always starts well, but after 2-3 hours of riding I can feel the lace routing channels pushing into my shins. It's a dull, annoying sensation that's tolerable, but should not happen in a high end boot. I think that Burton, in an effort to save on weight, sacrificed comfort by removing some integral padding from the tongue. If this issue is fixed you end up with a stellar boot.

These are a super light, mostly comfortable and super flexy boot. I spend 6 hours plus a day in these 5 or 6 days a week and I'm very happy with the performance. The down side to them comes from a lack of support in the boot so they have tended to crush in. It doesn't affect the feel from the inside but I am always having to adjust my binding straps to make them shorter as they crush in the boots from the outside. Also because the outside footprint of the boot is so small it may affect the size of the bindings you need. I'm in a 9 and I'm at the smallest size you can fit in a medium binding (Burton or Union). On the whole I love these boots but be warned if you ride 100 days a year you may need a couple of pairs a season!

Rode these all last year and love them. After having boas for a few years I was worried about the hassle of tying. Tucked in, the laces hold well. So lightweight, I caught a shuttle bus two blocks away running full speed. And thats not even what they're made for.

after riding these boots half the season so tight my big toe was black and blue they finely broke in..so much that my heal now has a blister on it from all the heal lift! and yes thats with the jbars in!! I WILL BE SENDING THESE BACK!

tizight booters, uber light, good flex, reduced foot bed size so if your a 9.5 like me its an easy fit in a medium binding, super comfy and fast to get on and off.. must buy for sure

Hey, i bought these boots and returned them after 4 days of riding.
they were super comfy at first, but then i stareted riding in them, and they offer no support at all. they are 4 in burton support level. my old moto's are 2.5 and the moto's offer way more support.
for the price of this boot you can find way better boots then these (Moto's for example).

This boot is spectacular. I just used them in Winter Park, CO and my foot didn't get cold or wet once. One thing I always hated about my other pair of boots is that they stunk from sweat. These have an antimicrobial layer of fabric in them to prevent the growth of microbes from sweat and thus preventing the nasty smell of feet. Also, the draw strings are a lot better than regular tie boots. They take all of 1 minute to put on and get tight. This works both ways bc when I'm done for the day, I want my boots off fast instead of having to hasse w/ untying them, and this product does just that. Overall, it's a great pair of boots. I def. recommend these to anybody!

Super comfy and flexible, but still responsive. Lightweight, but not sure that makes much of a difference when you're riding.

Some reviews about the liner giving out very fast, but they seem to be holding out well. I expect them to hold out the season just fine. I would like multiple seasons out of these, but for the price I can't complain.

Got an excellent deal on these....think it was $78 shipped back in November. I was really excited when I saw the pricing. Dogfunk comes up with some crazy deals now and then, but just have to be lucky enough to catch them as they sell out super fast. A couple weeks later, I scored some burton C02s for $88.

These are great boots, buy a half size bigger than what you normally wear

Finally got a pair of boots that I dont have to mess with on da hill. Super comfy and easy to get in and out of. I dont know what the other guy was talking about with da half size bigger, I ordered my same size and they fit great. I highly suggest buying these.

After riding Burton freestyles, DC Scouts, and another pair of Burton Freestyles, the Ozone boot is a welcomed upgrade. The boots are so light. I just bought my second pair simply so I have white and black ones. Very nice boots. They flex well and work on the hill or in the park.

This review only applies to the AFTERBANGE OZONE BOOT.
I ordered these about 2wks ago and instantly returned them after trying them on. 1) The boot material is made out of some cheap shiny vinyl material. Just by touching the boot you can instinctively tell that the boot will lose all boot form. 2) Strapping in my board, instantly turned these boots to mush. I tend to strap in with medium to tight tension in my straps. Once the straps went over the boot, my foot literally had at least an inch of space on either side due to the tension of the straps. 3) The form of the boots were way off. The left boot was more narrow than the right boot. It seemed odd but knew this wasn't something I wanted to deal with in the long run.
Like another reviewer stated, I too was close to being able to pull my foot out of the boot. NOT COOL.

However, the other Black or Red Ozone boots may return with different results. They seemed stiffer and made with better material.
I am a big fan or Burton Boots but the Afterbange's were a no go in my book.

Just some tips on Burton Boots, if you wear Nike brand sneakers, from the Jump-Offs to Air Max's they are the same exact size to Burton Boots. If you are 1/2 size, purchase the half size. After the boot packs out, you can either purchase or just grab insoles from other shoes to add as shims to the boots. Burton used to provide the shim but I guess with their new technology they thought it was no longer needed.

These boots are indeed very light, flexible, and thereby comfortable but those aren't the only things you want in a boot. They're so flexible that I either had to cinch my boot so tight before a run that my feet throbbed halfway down or risk my foot almost sliding out. My binding also crushed the boots, I had to readjust my toe caps twice in a week because the boots would just fold down into my feet. Essentially, if you want to make snowboarding more dangerous, these boots are the way to go.

these things lost all support after 2 weeks and they barely fit into a burton large binding, which they are suppose to considering I am a size 11. The lacing system also doesn't lock for me anymore and I can basically rip my feet out of them without trying at this point. These things were the best in the beginning but the material is too soft to last

this is a great boot i could definetly feel the difference between this and my old bulky zumas. The ozone gives you so much more flex and its so much lighter it makes carving and spins much much easier. =)

ok so... i bought these boots from my boss, first through second day best boot ever 12 days later (ya ive had em 12 days of solid ridin and im not amazing) there totally destroyed as tight as they get i can still pull my foot out(yes they are the right size).... WTF not awesome at all burton! dont get these boots if u want a long lasting boot! actually dont get this company if u want anything but clothes. BURTON SUCKS....
