Vans Verse Range Edition X Blake Paul Snowboard Boot 2024
This is Vans Snow. A clash of heritage and progression.
This upgraded version of the Verse is intended to be a functional and reliable addition to your backcountry toolkit. Designed to support overland adventures and uphill travel, the Verse Range Edition’s Adaptive Range Mode features a Rear Drop-Cuff that can be unlocked to widen the top opening of the boot for a significantly expanded range of motion. Skinning a switchback, punching up for quick pow scores, ripping the snowmobile deep into the hills, or just going for a good old-fashioned hike—the Verse Range Edition gets you there with less effort and more protection.
- TERRAIN: BACKCOUNTRY AND ALL-MOUNTAIN – This boot has been optimized for versatility, from parks and rails to steep, deep, untouched terrain.
- V3 ULTRACUSH™ WITH THE NORTH FACE FLASHDRY™ LINER – This UltraCush™ liner incorporates The North Face’s FlashDry™ technology to keep you dry by eliminating moisture as fast as possible.
- V3 POPCUSH™ FOOTBED – From the tri-density POPCUSH™ construction to the OrthoLite® open-cell foam top layer, the V3 footbed provides the kind of comfort and performance that only Vans can offer.
- V3 WAFFLE SUPERENDURO OUTSOLE WITH ALL-TRAC COLD WEATHER RUBBER COMPOUND - Inspired by the extended cross-country and off-road demands of moto enduro racing, the V3 SuperEnduro outsole is designed to offer maximum performance in and out of your bindings. With a multi-directional tread design, surface-level texturing, a molded TPU toe pick, and an expanded impact absorption zone, there’s no keeping up with this all-terrain apex predator.
- VANS HYBRID PLUS BOA® WITH CUSTOM SLIDE GUIDE – The Hybrid Plus system expands the range of flex control from the original Hybrid BOA® configuration by adding an extra BOA® lace that passes around the back of the boot and across the instep to optimize the lines of pull and maximize the flex control capabilities.
- ADAPTIVE RANGE MODE – The functional objective of Adaptive Range Mode is to widen the opening of the snowboard boot to allow for a more natural gait and extended range of motion on overland adventures or commuting uphill travel. Disengaging the Ride Mode strap opens the Rear Drop-Cuff and two-way stretch gore, providing significantly more calf articulation. This allows for longer strides and less wasted energy.
- WATERPROOF ZIPPER SHROUD + D RING – This feature is a durable and weatherproof fabric shield that protects the lower part of your boot from snow, ice, and moisture. It also features a metal D-ring for securely fastening your pant gaiters to lock out snow.
- VANS FLEX CONTROL SYSTEM - Our removable, high-rebound Hytrel® tongue stiffeners enable riders to custom-tune their boot flex. Keep both in for maximum support, use just one for increased lateral or medial response, or take them both out for a softer-flexing boot. As your boots soften up over time, add the tongue stiffeners back in to extend the life of your boots.
- EXOCAP MOLDED TOE PROTECTION – A molded plastic toe cap provides maximum protection and extra space in the toe box to keep your toes wiggling and warm.
- WATERPROOF, BREATHABLE VALVES - These waterproof valves allow one-way moisture management by transporting moisture away from your foot, ensuring breathability and thermal regulation for dry, comfortable feet.
- INSTEP FLEX ZONE – The Instep Flex Zone functions to maintain natural ankle flexion in your boot, whether in or out of your bindings.
- POWERCUFF STRAP – Power is the operative word. It provides extra support at the top of the boot for increased stability and response, giving riders customizable levels of engagement.
- MATERIALS – Leather, textile, and synthetic uppers
- FLEX RATING – 6-9
