Burton Introduces 'From Burton to the World' Collection
Limited Edition Drop Features Iconic Jake Burton Quotes on Snowboards, Apparel & Accessories
Burton has proudly unveiled the exclusive collection called 'From Burton to the World'. This unique range of snowboards, apparel, and accessories showcases unforgettable quotes from the late Jake Burton Carpenter, the visionary founder of Burton. Professional snowboarders sponsored by Burton will showcase the collection while competing in prestigious events in Aspen, Colorado, and Laax, Switzerland this month, with products becoming available to the public starting February 3 on Burton.com and in select flagship stores globally.
Celebrating Community Through Snowboarding
"Jake built Burton on a simple belief: snowboarding brings people together," expressed Donna Carpenter, Owner & Chair of the Board. "While we watch individual athletes compete, what Jake understood and what our riders embody is that snowboarding has always been about community. 'From Burton to the World' celebrates this spirit. Each board carries Jake's words, but more importantly, 'From Burton to the World' represents the passion snowboarders share on and off the mountain. This collection is a tribute to Jake's vision, which is now carried forward by riders around the world who continue to push the sport while staying true to its soul."
Jake's Words, Riders' Choice
Burton team riders collaborated closely with designers to select the Jake Burton quotes that resonated most with them, resulting in six striking snowboards in a vivid color palette, each adorned with groundbreaking quotes in bold fonts.
