Product Info
Versatile enough to easily handle the duties of lift-served, heli or cat trips, and aggressive backcountry booting, the Vans Hi-Country & Hell-Bound Snowboard Boots are a medium stiff lace boot with the Vans Flex Control adjustable tongue and a full waterproof gaiter to keep out the wet. V3 Flashdry™ liner and V3 Popcush footbed add to the level of comfort, so long days in the mountains don't require a comfort sacrifice.
Product Details
Flex
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.
Fit
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.
Liner
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
Lacing System
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.
Footbed
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
Sole
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.
Additional Features
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.
Waterproof Zipper Shroud and D Ring

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Flex Rating
Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
