Flex Rating: 5 - 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

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-lexing 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.

Custom Liner – For the rider who needs all the bells and whistles stacked onto Vans' out-of-the-box fit construction creed, which builds on their strong footwear experience. Mold it, customizer it to the T with a removable X-cage, or just slip into the instantly perfect foot pillow that is the Custom liner.

Vans Hybrid Plus Boa® – The Vans Hybrid Plus technology revolutionizes closure accuracy and flex variability in the same system. Built on Vans' original, industry first Hybrid Boa®, the idea of a closure system has expanded into a tool for flex control. These simultaneous functions unlock the door to a whole new world of customization.

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 heel hold.

V-Cork Footbed – It takes a great footwear company to know a foundation. The V-Cork footbed is a built-in integral part of the boot that uses cork as the secret weapon that makes all the difference in dampening abilities and arch support.

V-Hex Outsole – The V-Hex outsole takes a note from the WaffleFlex outsole and dips into the grab bag that is half a century of footwear construction experience. A little more heel dampening, a little more arch support, and all the response and weight reduction snowboarders dream of.

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