Encore Pro Snowboard Boots | 2023

A V2 UltraCush liner will keep your feet warm. The shell uses a dual Boa® closure system for on-the-fly micro-adjustability. Stave off foot fatigue and ride longer thanks to the vibration absorbing V2 POPCUSH footbed.

Boa Coiler Closure System - This tongue mounted single reel system utilizes a springloaded lace spool to automatically retract the lace cable slack for quick and efficient closure. Different lace guide radii are used to optimize closure force in specific areas of the boot.
Custom Slide Guide - Customizing the fit of your boots has never been easier or more convenient. The Custom Slide Guide’s anatomical shape provides adjustable fit anywhere along the instep area for added comfort and unmatched heel hold.
V2 UltraCush™ Liner - Features Van's adjustable and/or removable asymmetrical X-cage for a micro-adjustable fit and excellent heel hold, UltraCush interior cushioning layer, dual-density, heat-moldable core, an exterior support cage, a soft microsuede cuff/tongue, and a comfort-flex toe box.
V2 POPCUSH™ Footbed - Dual-density POPCUSH construction with TPU arch support heel clip for stability, a 3-D molded anatomical shape, anti-fatigue coring design, airflow perforations, and a Nylex moisture-wicking topsheet.
PleasureCuff™ - Designed to allow for the cuff of the boot to adjust to all range of calf sizes providing a comfortable and forgiving fit.
V2 Harness - Customize your heel hold with the V2 Harness as it works in tandem with the comfortable V2 liner to provide enhanced support and a personalized fit.
Heat Retention 360° - All Vans boots feature a newly improved thermal retention layer that provides a 360° wrap of the toe box and between the outsole and the liner. This essential layer keeps heat in and cold out, ensuring all-day warmth and comfort.
Smartwool® - Soft, odor-resistant, moisture-managing Merino wool to keep you feeling dry and comfortable even in the deepest days. Merino wool is warm and breathable and can absorb and retain moisture without feeling wet.
Instep Flex Zone - Maintaining flex not only in your boot but also when your boot is strapped onto a binding describes the main problem that the Instep Flex technology solves.
V2 WaffleFlex™ Outsole - The WaffleFlex is a lightweight and flexible outsole that combines Vans' weight-reducing UltraCush midsole material with metatarsal flex grooves designed to improve boardfeel and natural flex.
