This is Vans Snow. A clash of heritage and progression.

The Hi-Country & Hell-Bound is optimized to take your street or backcountry shred game to the next level. Boasting key performance features like a V3 POPCUSH footbed, custom flex tuning, and a V3 SuperEnduro Waffle outsole paired with unmatched moisture management, this all-terrain boot will not only take you where you want to go, but it’ll give you the tools to show up in style.

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 unmatched comfort and performance.

V3 WAFFLE SUPERENDURO OUTSOLE WITH ALL-TRAC COLD WEATHER RUBBER COMPOUND – 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.

V3 HARNESS – This advanced support harness delivers our highest level of support to the ankle and instep, keeping the V3 liner and boot shell locked in and connected.

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.

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.

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.

INSTEP FLEX ZONE – The Instep Flex Zone functions to maintain natural ankle flexion in your boot, whether in or out of your bindings.

HEAT RETENTION 360o – The thermal retention layer 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.

UPPER MATERIALS – Textile and synthetic

FLEX RATING – 5-8

SKILL LEVEL – Intermediate, advanced

It is normal for V-Series liners to fit snug right out of the box. After several hours of use, the dual-density, heat-moldable core of the liner will begin to shape to your foot, creating unparalleled comfort and a uniquely perfect fit. We recommend that you purchase your regular size.
