Burton Snowboards
The company was one of the first to start producing snowboards. It was its founder, Jake Burton, who was the first to develop a prototype of the modern board. He tested his device and realized that it allows you to snowboard much more comfortably and helps to keep balance better. In 1977, at just 23 years old, he independently set up production and gradually made snowboards popular in the States.
Burton became the world's first snowboard factory, and now it is the largest and most famous snowboard brand in the world. Not only beginners but also many professional snowboarders want to buy Burton. Prices for them start from $400 and go up to $1500. There are also special models Throwback Snowboard, items with history, snowboards the way they were made in the 60s. They are much simpler, they don't even have bindings, and they are controlled using a handle attached to the nose on a strong rope. This is exactly what the first Burton snowboard (BB1) looked like at one time. Now such Burton models cost only $150 in the USA (in Russia — from 12500 rubles). They are popular among those who have already tried everything and want to learn something new, as well as, especially, among those who are just beginning their journey of getting acquainted with snowboarding.
But mostly the brand's products are snowboards with the famous Burton bindings, made not of wood, but of special impact-resistant plastic designed for decades of service. Ultra-modern, with interesting prints. Burton snowboards set the trend that everyone else follows. Even by the style of the board on the slope, you can usually see who has a stylish Burton and who has something boring or overly bright and full of kitsch.
Today Burton products are sold in 4600 stores worldwide. Of these, 1580 are located in the USA. The Burton snowboard lineup is divided into four categories. These are:
Freeride — for big mountains;
Freestyle — for all-around riding;
Carving — for carving (riding on the edge of the snowboard) down the mountain slope;
Park — for various freestyle disciplines, such as half-pipe and park.
Even easier — buy products in the official Burton online store. When choosing snowboards, all the necessary filters will be on the left. You will be able to specify exactly what you need: boards for beginners, for intermediate level or for professionals, strongly curved or flat options, sizes (from 100 to 170W). And then all that remains is to choose the most attractive design.
While other, more well-known brands at the time, including Nike and Adidas, followed old trends and for many years wondered whether to invest in a new direction, Burton simply made history, providing people with everything they needed for riding. Now snowboarding is recognized worldwide, it has become an Olympic sport, and Burton is the leader of an entire huge movement, valued at several billion dollars.
Burton Clothing and Footwear for Snowboardiga
The brand specializes in products for snowboarders, lovers of mountains and speed. It produces winter clothing and warm boots. The company's main store is located in the town of Burlington, Vermont, right at the foot of the mountain. Snowboards and some of the clothing, including Burton jackets, are also made there.
Burton clothing in America costs much less than in stores in Russia. In the US, Burton jackets average $150-$230, while in Russia they sell for at least 19 thousand rubles. Pullovers in America cost $130-$150 (in Russia — 12 thousand rubles). Insulated pants — $55. Sweaters — $65-$109. Overall in the Russian Federation prices are 20-30% higher than in America, which is not that much, but it consistently comes out to 3-7 thousand rubles.
Special Burton boots cost even more; after all, these are some of the most famous snowboarding boots in the world. Their price in the US starts at $199 and goes up to $379. At the same time in Russia the same boots are sold for 36,000 rubles. That's $484. Buying one pair in America saves more than a hundred dollars!
Burton also owns several other popular footwear, clothing and accessories brands. These include:
Anon Optics — goggles for snowboarders;
R.E.D. — helmets and body protection;
Gravis — footwear;
Analog — outerwear.
Recently Burton also acquired the Special Blend, Foursquare, Forum brands, the Jeenyus jeans manufacturer and the Channel Islands surf goods company. Some products from these brands can be found on the official Burton website in America.
Burton Backpacks
The company produces many accessories. Including — bags, warm socks, hats for snowy weather, gloves, scarves. A few years ago Burton watches gained popularity, with durable straps, water-resistant and not afraid of drops. And backpacks stand as a separate category — tourist, “snow” (that’s exactly what they’re called!) and kids’. Durable, ergonomic, not afraid of the worst weather. With these you can head to the mountains for six months, climb peaks, slide down slopes and raft on kayaks, and nothing will happen to them.
The brand’s catalog features several dozen backpacks priced from $40 to $120. It’s convenient that the water displacement is specified in the name of every adult model. And the appearance of the item immediately shows what it’s designed for: multi-month hikes, a half-day forest walk, or simply carrying things to school so that nothing tears.
