2027 Vans Hi-Standard Linerless DX Snowboard Boots
The 2027 Vans Hi-Standard Linerless DX Snowboard Boots strip away the traditional liner to create a slimmed-down, lightweight boot built specifically for street and park riding. The reduced-volume upper brings your foot closer to the boot for a more connected, skate-like feel, while critical cushioning and support are built directly into the upper. An ultra-soft 1–2/10 flex and traditional laces keep movement unrestricted, while the V1 POPCUSH™ Footbed provides cushioning underfoot. Despite the smaller overall boot, the V1 Waffle Lug outsole maintains a standard footprint for proper binding fit, giving riders the freedom and boardfeel of the linerless construction without changing how the boot interfaces with the binding.

Intermediate to advanced street and park riders who prioritize maximum flexibility, boardfeel, and a lightweight, skate-like feel over traditional boot support.
