Vans Hi-Standard Snowboard Boot -
The Vans Men's Hi-Standard Snowboard Boot illustrates that excellent comfort and customized fit don't necessarily require paying steep prices. This boot features a medium-soft flex, ideal for beginners and seasoned shredders who enjoy sampling everything the mountain has to offer.
A traditional lacing system keeps this boot supportive, and an instep lace lock out allows both the lower and upper zones to be independently tightened. A heat-moldable TriFit-X liner gives nailed-in heel hold and the cushy feel of soft interior cushioning foam. A V2 dual-density EVA footbed supports and cushions your riding experience with high-rebound impact relief pads at both the forefoot and heel. The ClassicLite outsole has an oversized inverted waffle tread for superior traction, and it features a special rubber compound in high wear areas for more durability and better wear.
