Vans Men's Hi-Standard Linerless DX Black Gum 2021

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.

• 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.

Lacing System:

Traditional Lace

Just like lace up shoes, but with a bit more added tech.

There is often a separate pully system to do up the inner part of the boot, and the outer is done up with laces. 

• You control how loose or how tight your boots are throughout different sections of the boot
• Because of that control they are less prone to creating pressure points

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.
