Burton Highshot X Step On Snowboard Boots 2027
BOOTFITTER'S NOTES
The Burton Highshot X Step On hits a sweet spot that we think a lot of riders are looking for.
It offers the support and response you'd expect from a premium all-mountain boot without crossing into the ultra-stiff territory that can be more boot than many riders actually need.
The fit is one of the biggest reasons this is the go-to for so many interested in the Step On setup. Chances are Step On is on your radar at least in part for the convenience piece. But that's only a piece of the decision. The Highshot X comes with an impressive fit and performance package that doesn't force you to compromise anywhere compared to what you might get out of a traditional boot.
It does an excellent job locking the heel and ankle in place thanks to its Internal Ankle Hammock while allowing the forefoot enough room to stay comfortable throughout the day. That combination is surprisingly difficult to find. The boot feels secure where it matters most without creating unnecessary pressure across the front of your foot.
The Dual Zone BOA system makes dialing in that fit straightforward. Being able to independently adjust the upper and lower portions of the shell lets you fine-tune support without overtightening the entire boot, while the Imprint 3 liner continues to be one of Burton's best.
On snow, the Highshot X feels confident without feeling demanding. It has enough support to drive a responsive snowboard, carve hard, and ride aggressively, but remains comfortable enough for riders who spend full days on the mountain.
If you're deciding between the Highshot X and the Highshot X Pro, we'd focus less on performance and more on fit customization. The Pro gives you another level of fine-tuning with its Triple BOA PerformFit Wrap system, while the Highshot X keeps things simpler without sacrificing the secure, confidence-inspiring fit that makes both boots so impressive. If having as many fit adjustments possible is what you're after go for the Pro, otherwise this is likely the sweet spot.
For a lot of riders, this is the Step On boot we'd recommend first. It delivers the fit, support, and performance most people are looking for without asking them to pay for features they may never need.
*Please note* Step On boots are ONLY compatible with Step On bindings. Reference sizing chart to ensure accurate size match.
