Great for beginner and intermediate riders, the Encore OG boots have what you need to progress in all terrain types. They feature a warm UltraCush liner, a footbed with arch support and a medium-soft flex that is responsive without being overwhelming like some of the stiffer boots. A clever harness works inside your boot to keep everything finely tuned and provides the best fit.
Boa Coiler Closure System - This tongue mounted single reel system utilizes a springloaded lace spool to automatically retract the lace cable slack for quick and efficient closure. Different lace guide radii are used to optimize closure force in specific areas of the boot.
V1 UltraCush™ Liner - Vans' most flexible liner featuring an UltraCush interior cushioning layer, dual-density heat-moldable core, fleece cuffs and a comfort-flex toe box.
V1 POPCUSH™ Footbed - Single-density POPCUSH construction with a 3-D molded anatomical shape, anti-fatigue coring design, airflow perforations, and a Nylex moisture-wicking topsheet.
PleasureCuff™ - Designed to allow for the cuff of the boot to adjust to all range of calf sizes providing a comfortable and forgiving fit.
V1 Harness - Attached to the inside shell of the boot, this is Vans' lightest and most simple harness designed to ensure effective support and heel hold by securing the liner to prevent movement.
Heat Retention 360° - All Vans 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.
Instep Flex Zone - Maintaining flex not only in your boot but also when your boot is strapped onto a binding describes the main problem that the Instep Flex technology solves.
V1 Waffle Lug Outsole - The V1 Waffle Lug outsole pays tribute to the Original Waffle skate outsole giving you that timeless vulcanized look that put Vans on the map. This sole is made from Vans' special recipe rubber compound for traction and features an aggressive reverse waffle lug pattern for all-mountain and street performance.
