Vans Hell-Bound & Hi Country (8.5)

Flex Rating – 5 – 8 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)

Instep Flex Zone – The Instep Flex Zone functions to maintain natural ankle flexion in your boot, whether in or out of your bindings.

Vans Flex Control System – Removable high-rebound Hytrel® tongue stiffeners allow riders to custom-tune their flex. Slide them both in for maximum support, use just one to provide either increased lateral or medial response or leave them out for a softer-flexing boot. As boots soften up over the course of a season, you can add the tongue stiffeners back in to extend the life of your boots.

Powercuff Strap – Providing extra support at the top of the boot for increased stability and response. Its configuration gives riders customizable levels of engagement and the option of wrapping the strap around the internal liner or the exterior tongue.

V3 UltraCush Liner with FlashDry™ – UltraCush interior cushioning layer with The North Face FlashDry™ for superior wicking performance / Expanded Comfort Flex neoprene forefoot / Updated X-Cage for superior heel hold / Dual-density, heat-moldable core / Closed-seam microsuede cuff and tongue

Traditional with Powercuff Strap – Power is the operative word with the PowerCuff Strap. It provides extra support at the top of the boot for increased stability and response. Its configuration gives the Standard XF a customizable level of engagement.

V3 PopCush Footbed – Tri-density POPCUSH construction / OrthoLite® open-cell foam top layer / TPU arch support heel clip provides stability while allowing torsional flex / Advanced 3D-molded anatomical shape / Anti-fatigue coring design / Airflow perforations / Nylex moisture-wicking top sheet

V3 Superenduro Waffle Outsole with All-Trac™ Rubber – Inspired by the extended cross- country and off-road demands of moto enduro racing, the V3 SuperEnduro outsole is designed to offer maximum performance in and out of your bindings. Multi-directional tread design? Surface-level texturing? A TPU toe pick? Check, check, and check. There’s no keeping up with this all-terrain apex predator.

Heat Retention 360º – All Vans snowboard 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.

Waterproof Breathable Valves – Moisture management through waterproof valves ensures breathability–meaning dry socks, dry feet, and a more comfortable and longer ride.
