Bought these on a whim thinking they're economy boots but I'm super impressed with how well the boa system works. Would buy again. #sweepstakes

Nice fit, comfortable liner. And my favourite is HYPERCUSHION insole, it gives the most cushion I ever had in snowboard boots. But sizing is too small. Vans recommended to buy "my regular size". I have US 13 in all regular shoes and snowboard boots (sometimes 12.5 fits me well), but this model is too small in size 13. My foot is 30.5 cm, size chart says that US 13 must be 31 cm, but in fact it is 30 cm.

These boots suffer from poor engineering. Something in the liners digs into the inner ankle bone. No amount of fitting fixes the issue. do not buy.

These boots are horrible. There is something wrong in the heel ankle construction. They create intense ankle pain. They are basically unwearable. I would advise VAN to discontinue these boots as it's borderline fraud selling these to people. I also was recommended these through curated and can't wear or return them. They are brand new and unwearable. Anyone review that claims these are great boots is a fake review, plain and simple.

Purchased September 2024 and I've spent 7 days using these boots. These have been difficult to work each day. The BOA system does not stay put! I find myself tightening the shin BOA at least 2 spins + ankle BOA at least .5 spins (because it doesn't tighten down much anyway) EVERY 3 RUNS. All this to say I spent more time tightening these boots than enjoying them. Not sure if my BOAs are faulty or if it's the structure of the boot. Wish I could return these and go with old school laces. The "convienence" of BOA is a sham.

I wore these for one season and the Boa broke. I love them but don't think I'd by another pair just because of that. I reached out to try warranty for didn't hear back.

2023 model boots are the worst! Just like everyone said the ankle pain is terrible. I rode these 5 times thinking they would break in but they never did, super painful. I also reached out to Vans and they were even worse. Since I bought them on offerup they said the warranty was not valid. I told them these are 2023 and it shouldn't matter where I bought them, Vans should stand by there products but they disagreed. The worst customer experience ever. BUY BURTON where they at least fix the issue regardless of where you buy it from.

Bought these to replace my 12 year old DC boots. Thought they felt comfortable at first and figured the heel lock would be nice but after riding for 2 days the outside of my ankles mostly under the bone are bruised and hurt like crazy. I typically like vans but would not recommend these.

I'm a lift operator and I've worn these boots nearly every single shift I've worked the past 3 seasons. I have >200 days and counting (91 days 20-21 season, 77 days 21-22, and 51 days currently this season) in my current pair and am about to purchase another. They are very comfortable and durable. They feel just like wearing a pair of regular sk8-hi skate shoes after being broken in. They perform well in every condition I ride; groomed corduroy, park, glades, or 8in+ of powder, never had an issue. I suspect the negative reviews come from individuals who didn't heat mold their boots nor wore them enough to break them in. Similar to them, I did experience the ankle irritation in the beginning. It hurt the first couple days. However, with heat molding and after about 8-10 full ride days of wear, it went away and the boots were broken in. Ever since they've been the most comfortable snowboard boots I've owned, and they're warm too.

Horrible pressure points causing pain even when I'm not riding. Just wearing them can cause a lot of pain. Broke within 2 seasons, not a good build quality.

Construction in right boot is flawed and causes extreme ankle pain. These boots are unwearable. I would recommend Nidecker or Rome
