Sequal Snowboard Boot - Men's

Built off the notion that a responsive boot shouldn't punish your feet into submission, the Vans Men's Sequal Snowboard Boot serves up a hefty dose of cushioning, as well as a customizable flex that ranges from mid-range to highly responsive. Vans' Flex Control System provides tongue inserts to fine-tune the boot's flex to your precise needs. Insert both for the stiffest possible flex, remove either the inner or outer stiffener for a bit more flex, or ditch both for maximum freedom. Traditional laces deliver the tried-and-true response you've come to love with regular lace-up boots. Helping to eliminate heel lift when you're riding at blistering speeds, the Tongue Lock Down cinches the tongue down as you tighten the boot's laces.

As the boot's most impressive feature, the Custom-X liner is made of dual-density, heat-moldable foam for the cloud-nine comfort demanded by 100-day riders. Dri-Lex moisture-wicking interior keeps your feet from feeling cold and clammy as you a sweat throughout the day. Another cool feature is the boot's Reach Around cuff, which wraps around the boot's inner shell for a highly supportive fit. This cuff closure can be secured around the liner for all-around support or cinched over the tongue for the utmost in hard-charging stiffness.

Absorbing excess shock and vibration, the UltraCush Lite midsole takes the sting out of flat landings and choppy snow conditions. The V-Cork UltraCush Lite footbed features a heat-moldable arch cradle that conforms to your foot over time. Its airflow perforations prevent perspiration buildup while the heel impact relief pad prevents bruising when you're stomping heavy landings. Throw in Vans' aggressively lugged V-Hex rubber outsole for a freeride-friendly boot that's ready for backcountry tours and bootpacks.
