Vans Encore Snowboard Boots - Women's - 2012/2013
A proven performer, the Vans Encore women's snowboard boots just keep getting better. They provide a great fit, forgiving flex and a quick and easy closure system. Boa® 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. Flexible cuffs provide comfortable and secure closure around ankles and lower legs, and enhance body-to-board responsiveness. Trifit X thermal-formable liners with asymmetric 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, high-rebound footbeds feature integrated, molded arch supports and breathable airflow perforations; footbeds are treated to fight odors. Internal web harnesses hold liners closed for secure fit and prevent them from slipping inside shells; lace locks maintain desired tension. Full instep articulation allows the upper and lower zones of the boots to flex independently, creating a fluid forward motion and minimizing shell distortion. ClassicLite outsoles ensure a featherlight feel, a slim profile and high durability; oversize waffle tread pattern increases traction and improves snow release.
