Getting the right binding size is crucial toward safe, proper snowboarding. Large Burton snowboard bindings are the choice for those with larger feet. All Burton men's and women's bindings come in size large and you may require the larger construction to properly fit your boots. Take a look to find out if large Burton snowboard bindings will work for you. Identification All Burton men's bindings come in sizes small, medium and large. According to Burton's sizing chart, a size large men's binding corresponds to men's boot sizes 10 and larger and women's boot sizes 11 and larger.Types Burton women's bindings also come in size small, medium and large; however, women's bindings are smaller to meet the smaller profile of women's boots and feet. Women's large bindings are defined as women's boot sizes 8 and larger, or men's boot sizes 7 to 9.Significance The most important factor in purchasing snowboard bindings is getting the right fit between boot and binding. Sizes serve as a guideline, but the only way to ensure that you purchase a binding that will properly secure your boot is to size them out. Although Burton boots sized as listed will work with a large Burton binding, other boots may feature more narrow, compact design and may require the use of a smaller binding. To be sure, bring your boots with you when purchasing a set of Burton bindings.Function To try the binding on, slip the boot in and tighten the ankle and toe straps. Try both left and right bindings and make sure that the boot fits snugly without any movement. If you cannot get the strap snug and have wiggle room between boot and strap, determine if you can shorten the strap. Burton bindings contain adjustable straps that allow you to adjust length easily. You may also be able to adjust the gas pedal inward and outward to better support your your toes. If you cannot properly secure your boot after shortening the strap and adjusting the pedal, try a medium binding.Misconceptions Although women's bindings are designed to better fit the narrow, short profile of a woman's foot, they may not work for all women. Women with larger or wider feet may fit better in a men's binding. If a women's large is too snug, consider opting for a men's binding. |
