Vans Encore Pro Snowboard Boot - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"The Encore Pro is one of our favorite choices for riders who want a boot that balances precision and play. The dual-zone BOA® system makes dialing in fit effortless, and the medium flex is versatile enough to keep you carving groomers, dipping into pow, or hitting side hits all in the same day."The Vans Encore Pro Snowboard Boots are made for riders who expect more from their gear—comfort, control, and style in one lightweight package. Designed with an ideal medium flex, these boots give you just the right amount of responsiveness for groomer carves and powder lines, while staying forgiving enough for freestyle sessions and long days lapping the park. They’re a boot that doesn’t force you to choose between performance and fun.Under the hood, the Encore Pro shines with technical details that translate directly into better riding. The dual-zone BOA® Custom Focus system delivers a precision fit across the instep and heel, locking your foot in place for confidence on every turn. The Smartwool-lined V2 UltraCush™ heat-moldable liner keeps your feet warm and dry while reducing pressure points, and the POPCUSH™ footbed adds arch support and impact cushioning. A V2 Waffle Pro outsole grips icy lift lines and sidecountry bootpacks, while Heat Retention 360° locks warmth in for frigid storm days. These are boots built to perform wherever the mountain takes you.
