What is a BOA work shoe?
A BOA work shoe is a work shoe with a BOA closure. Such a closure is an alternative to laces in work shoes. The BOA closure is a special closure system that allows work shoes to fit snugly around your foot. Instead of a lace, the shoe has a stainless steel wire. This wire can be pulled tighter by means of a turning knob. This way you can 'tie' your laces without tying a knot.
Loose laces are a thing of the past. They don't get in the way or get tangled in equipment. This also makes it safer than the traditional lace. Furthermore, the BOA system prevents contamination because ice, dirt and sand do not stick. No more dirty laces in your hands after a rainy day at work.

In addition to the well-known BOA closure, there are also work shoes with turn closures such as Turn or Speedlace, these are the same type of turn closures, only with a different brand name. BOA is the original, but it doesn't mean other brands are worse. They have been able to imitate the twist lock system or even improve it in their own vision.
Advantages of BOA closure compared to normal laces
A BOA work shoe with closure is easy to put on and take off, but that is not the only advantage compared to a classic shoe with laces. For example, if you want to put your shoes on very tightly, you don't have to use a lot of force. By simply turning the dial a little further, you ensure that your shoes fit extra securely around your foot and you cannot lose them in muddy areas.
In addition, a BOA closure lasts longer than authentic laces. Nothing is more annoying than putting on your shoes in the morning and the lace breaks off because it is worn out. With BOA closure you do not have this problem. Because the laces are made of stainless steel, they last much longer. So you no longer have to worry about purchasing laces. With the BOA closure this problem is a thing of the past.
Origin of work shoe BOA
As with many technologies, this BOA closure came from the sports world. The origin of the closure comes from cycling and winter sports. These athletes were looking for a way to securely fasten shoes without having to worry about laces that could come loose. This closure became very interesting for companies for the same reason. The BOA closure is therefore rapidly gaining popularity in work shoes.
Long-lasting comfort with BOA work shoes
The BOA system ensures a secure fit that is comfortable all day long. You can even make tiny adjustments as you work, without having to take off your gloves. When it's time to give your feet a rest, you can easily loosen the closure. If you want to be able to step into your shoes with ease, go for loafers, work clogs or work boots.
