Vans Men's Hi-Standard LL DX Boot Black/Gold 2024

The Hi-Standard Linerless DX is an innovative, one-of-a-kind boot like nothing you’ve worn before. Its slimmed-down, linerless design was developed for street and park riders seeking the freedom of closer contact and better boardfeel. Reduced volume in the upper results in a smaller overall boot, while the V1 Waffle Lug outsole provides a standard footprint for fitting into bindings. The lightweight construction ensures a more connected and skate-like feel, with critical cushioning and support features built directly into the upper.

Lacing System: Lace
Response: Playful

Features:

• V1 Popcush footbed: - Single-density POPCUSH construction - Advanced 3D-molded anatomical shape - Anti-fatigue coring design - Airflow perforations - Nylex moisture-wicking top sheet
• 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 riders customizable levels of engagement and the option of wrapping the strap around the internal liner or the exterior tongue.
  
• Heat Retention 360: 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.
  
• Instep flex zone: The Instep Flex Zone functions to maintain natural ankle flexion in your boot, whether in or out of your bindings. 
• Pleasurecuff: The supple elasticity of the PleasureCuff delivers a cushioned, comfortable fit that keeps your calves supported.

Lacing System: Traditional Lace

Traditional lacing system provides a tried and true method for a snug and customized fit.

Liner: Linerless

The bottom line: Linerless technology redefines simplicity and modern comfort. Its lightweight construction and slimmed-down upper reduces a boot’s overall size and weight. An increased internal foam package provides a softer, more cushioned feel. Without internal harnessing, riders will experience unmatched ease in and out of the boot. A calculated combination of support and free-flex articulation makes linerless technology ideal for performance, street, or park riders choosing the Hi-Standard™ DX boot, or skill- and price-conscious riders looking for value and comfort in the new Aura™, Encore™, Hi-Standard™, or Juvie™ linerless models.

Outsole: V1 Waffle Outsole with All-Trac Cold Weather Rubber Compound

The original Vans waffle outsole is an iconic skate classic, and the V1 Waffle Lug outsole pays tribute to the timeless vulcanized look that put Vans on the map. Expect high levels of board-feel and traction from the Waffle Lug outsole.

- Aggressive reverse waffle lug pattern for all-mountain and street performance - Vans’ special recipe rubber compound for all-condition traction

Flex: 1-2 (1-10 Scale)

A fun, flexy park boot.
