The Boa Lacing System used and abused on the L.L. Bean Technical Upland Boot

Eight More Miles hunting blog has issued its follow up observations to an already stellar Boa Lacing System review on the L.L. Bean Technical Upland Boot.

“My Upland Technicals are the only pair I’ve worn this season – they’re that comfortable. The Boa stainless steel lacing system cinches the boot around your foot as tight or as loose as you want it — perfect for different terrains and temperatures. I found myself lacing them up pretty tight during cool morning trips, and loosening them slightly during the warmer afternoons as my feet began to swell.”

It seems lacing systems have been all the rage the last few seasons. Ever since Vans & Boa introduced the first Vans Boa snowboard boots 10 years ago, Boa has changed the game. There are certainly plenty of lacing system options available to choose from but unfortunately many of them don’t offer much of a benefit. Don’t settle for less. When buying snowboard boots and deciding on which lacing system to choose ask yourself if it provides better performance and fit or is it just another marketing gimmick? No other lacing system delivers the versatility, custom fit and performance benefits that the Boa Lacing System provides. There truly is no substitute. For the 2010/11 season Vans has rolled out several new Vans Boa snowboard boot configurations to ensure there is a boot for every rider preference. 1 zone, 2 zone, 3 zone…you decide!

Continuing his winning ways, Lake athlete Jeremy Powers took top honors at the Colorado Cross Classic during the 5th stop of the NACT cyclocross series in Boulder, Colorado. Powers wearing Lake MX330 cycling shoes featuring the Boa Lacing System ignored the potential fire hazard in the background of the race and powered through the sandy shoreline of the Boulder Reservoir to take the victory. Specialized Factory team rider Todd Wells (Specialized BG S-Works with Boa S1) took third. Video below of the race. Check out those Reel Pink Boa reels Jeremy Powers is rocking! Get yours HERE!
