Vans Encore Boa Snowboard Boots - Women's - 2010/2011

The top-selling Vans Encore Boa snowboard boots are forgiving for the newbie, yet so feature-rich the seasoned rider won't wish for more. Encore boots will deliver season after season. Boa(R) Coiler lacing system, with ankle and cable guides along entire edge of eyestays, distributes closure force evenly for a dialed-in fit that won't loosen up. Boa lacing offers on-the-fly adjustment and never comes untied; you get consistent closure without pressure points. Trifit X thermal-formable liners with asymmetrical heel-holding inserts feature closed-seam fleece upper cuffs, comfort flex toe boxes and low-volume soles. Open-cell foam interior cushioning layer adds plush comfort. Molded EVA rebound footbeds feature integrated arch support, anatomically placed dual-density metatarsal and heel impact-relief pads and antimicrobial linings. Center tongue construction and internal web harnesses pad and secure feet down for controlled riding. Vanslite Snowaffle soles feature a 1-piece, injected-molded EVA midsole/bottom unit with strategically placed rubber in high-wear areas for enhanced board feel and response. Inverted waffle tread pattern's stiffness gradually decreases from heels to toes, maximizing turning response without sacrificing flex and feel at the toes. 3/4-wrap heel clips stabilize feet and increase torsional rigidity to prevent twisting and enhance turning response.
