Burton Private Stock Snowboards 2010: Fritz the Cat
(21 August 2009) - Burton released another board in their exclusive Private Stock Collection today. Available in only 100 specialty shops worldwide, the 2010 edition features Fritz the Cat, cartoonist R. Crumb's infamous feline con artist. Fritz also starred in the first animated feature film to receive an X rating in the United States, the most successful independent animated feature of all time. The limited-edition board features the...
Burton AK Leather Tech Glove
(30 September 2008) - The end of September is not too early to start thinking about keeping warm on the cold winter city streets. It also isn't to early to think about getting back on the mountain for fun on the board. These two pursuits became one when I found these gloves from Burton. The AK Leather Tech Glove is meant to be a killer park glove, but...
Burton Private Stock
(09 September 2008) - A first look at a new initiative by Burton, Private Stock is an extremely limited collection of products available exclusively at a select group of 100 specialty retailers worldwide. For the launch of Private Stock, Burton collaborated with one of Cool Hunting's favorites, Ron English. Known for his politically charged illustrations and subverted billboards, English's works are used on the Burton Hero (pictured right)...
Idiom 2009
(02 May 2008) - Here's an early look at what's to come from one of our favorite snow wear brands Idiom. As we've come to expect from Burton's high end label, it seems as though designers Jeff Staple and Hiroshi Fujiwara have kept the 2009 line simple, attractive and technical, just the way we like it. Following suit with Burton's plans to become more environmentally responsible, going green...
Burton 2009
(31 March 2008) - In between watching 1080s galore at the U.S. Open a couple weeks backs, I had the chance to demo some of Burton's gear due out for the 2009 season. Most noteworthy is their Infinite Channel System (ICS) and Extra Sensory Technology (EST)—an integrated board and binding system. Reducing the binding mount to two screws, thus eliminating the plate from under your boot. Debuted for...
Still Life 2008
(19 March 2008) - This past winter star Japanese designer Hiroshi Fujiwara was always blogging about his epic snowboarding trips all over the world. The snow-covered old growth terrain was always so inviting but I also took note of the brightly colored minimalist jackets that he and his crew would wear and wondered what brand they were sporting. Through a Neil Harmon photo essay on Honeyee called Still...
Burton Archive Series
(10 January 2008) - Eighties revivalism continues and when done right we enjoy seeing the era reinvented in design, fashion, music, etc. Better yet, a reissue celebrates originals and maybe even better still, adding new details to classics modernizes them for a fresh look with all the functionality we expect out of today's gear. Specifically, we're talking about Burton's new Archive Series Collection, a line that pulls out...
Burton LTD Grail Denim Jacket And Pant
(19 November 2007) - I used to make fun of people who wore denim on the slopes, but Burton recently made it more functional with this first edition Gore-Tex LTD Grail Denim Jacket and Pant.Denim alone is probably the worst thing you could wear in cold and wet conditions, however an exclusive collaboration with Gore-Tex gives Burton the sole rights for two years to use their technology that...
Paul Smith x Burton Mark XIII
(22 October 2007) - Yes, this really is snowboard gear. I know it looks incredibly traditional, but it's the second limited-edition collaboration between Paul Smith (always one of my favorites) and Burton Snowboards, and has just hit the shops. Last time they got together, in 2005, they came up with navy pinstripe-suit inspired gear straight out of the city. This time, the countryside looks like the starting point...
Burton Chicago Flagship
(20 September 2007) - Burton staked its claim in the Midwest by opening their latest flagship store in Chicago last night with a big ol' Burton-style party. It may seem odd to open a snowboarding store in the flatlands, but Founder and Chairman Jake Burton first competed with a Burton board in Michigan, so the store brings 30 years of Burton full circle. At four stories high in...
Last Chance: Burton x iPod x Shiny Toy Guns Contest
(09 February 2007) - In time for the really really cold weather here in the Northeastern U.S, we're about ready to give away some prizes that will help keep you warm and entertained. The grand prize is an autographed copy of the new Shiny Toy Guns album, We Are Pilots, the Burton Audex Jacket (which includes Bluetooth technology for mobile phones and iPod controls hardwired into the jacket)...
Burton x iPod x Shiny Toy Guns Contest
(19 January 2007) - It's Cool Hunting's turn to team up with Shiny Toy Guns, Burton and Apple to help keep you warm and connected this winter. In celebration of our first snow yesterday, we are putting up a sweepstakes to win some loot. The grand prize includes the fully outfitted Burton Audex jacket (which includes Bluetooth technology for mobile phones and iPod controls hardwired into the jacket),...
Burton / R.E.D. Audio HiFi Helmet
(25 November 2004) - This isn't the first snowboarding helmet with built in speakers, but it may be the best so far. Burton claims audio excellence and I haven't gotten proof of that yet, but the overall features are just right. Removable speakers, adjustable volume, a quick release chord and an easy access mute button give this lid the functionality needed for happiness and safety. Have you tried...
Burton Headphone Beanie
(25 September 2004) - Burton has set the bar for integrating music with snowboarding gear. First was the Amp jacket with on-sleeve iPod controls, then the Amp backpack, also with iPod integration. Now for the Fall is the headphone beanie which keeps your head warm and full of tunes-- just plug it in to whatever music player you have. They actually did these last year too, but it...
New Burton iPod Gear
(03 November 2003) - update: January 4, 2004 I finally found a Burton Amp backpack at Paragon in NYC. So far, so good. Aside from the obvious benefits, it has the right number of pockets, high quality manufacturing, and a sleek design. Let's see how it does when put to task on the streets of NYC... --------------- Burton has released the rumored Amp Pack backpack and three new...
Burton Amp
(12 February 2003) - A little while back Burton and Apple announced the Amp, which is a snowboarding jacket with a special pocket for your iPod and controls on the sleeve. If they had only put some speakers in the hood, it would be perfect!...
