Don't know, but I can give you some info on the Boa. My wife has a pair of Omni's she does like them, but she has one complaint about the system - it tightens uniformly. Now, I realize this line is used in marketing materials as a good thing, but that's not always the case. With her foot shape, it's better and more comfortable to tighten the uppers more than the lowers. She can do this with her Salomons, but the Vans tighten evenly from top to bottom, causing her some discomfort over the top of her foot, just to get the upper tight enough.

I tried them all but found that the contra was the best.

contras are cool all day long. You'll be happy if you get them.
