This is an innovative fastening system which is r<strong>evolutionising the way people lace up their shoes<\/strong>. It was born in the Rocky Mountains in 2001, when entrepreneur and snowboarder Gary Hammerslag sought an innovative way to lace up his own snowboard boots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Once they saw the real benefits of this revolutionary fastener, the company decided to extend it to different types of footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">But how does the boa fit system work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>The BOA is based on a rotation system<\/strong> that allows the tension of the boot to be adjusted with just one hand,<strong> providing a precise and comfortable fit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-youtube su-u-responsive-media-yes\"><iframe width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yfNgr2U9o8U?autohide=0&amp;autoplay=1&amp;mute=1&amp;controls=1&amp;fs=0&amp;loop=1&amp;modestbranding=0&amp;playlist=yfNgr2U9o8U&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;theme=dark&amp;wmode=&amp;playsinline=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture\" title=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">BOA technology consists of three main components:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">&#8211; An adjustment dial<br>&#8211; A stainless steel lace<br>&#8211; A twist-lock mechanism<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Specifically, the <strong>adjustment dial <\/strong>is mounted on the top of the shoe and allows the tension to be adjusted with a simple twist. The <strong>stainless steel lace<\/strong> is wrapped around the shoe or footwear and adapts perfectly to the shape of the foot, ensuring a customised and secure fit.
