"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I like this boot for riders who want that classic lace feel but still need modern support. The Instep Lace Lockout and V1 harness really improve heel hold, and the V1 Waffle Lug outsole gives solid traction hiking features. It’s comfortable right out of the box and forgiving enough for progression.""From park laps to side hits off the main run, we lace into the Hi-Standard Pro Snowboard Boot and ride with confidence.
