Understanding the BOA System in Motorcycle Riding Shoes

What is BOA?

BOA's proprietary closure system of steel lace, nylon guides, and a mechanical reel was designed to address the long list of deficiencies found in traditional closures. In the process, BOA improved upon the performance of every other closure system on the market-from laces to buckles and ratchets to hook and loop systems.

Glove-like Fit

The BOA Closure System provides custom comfort with smooth, even closure and no pressure points.

Powerful Closure

Once locked into place. BOA reels and laces stay that way

Micro-adjustability

BOA reels offer seemingly infinite degrees of fine-tuning.

On-the-Fly

Get Easy, one-handed adjustment with a quick turn of the BOA dial.

Light Weight and Durable

Made from aircraft-grade stainless steel. BOA laces are stronger per gram than tank armor.
