Introducing the 2026 Vans Snowboard Boots: High-Performance Innovation for Riding
We are excited to announce the arrival of two standout additions to the Vans Snow collection for the 2026 season: the Encore Pro Ltd Mia Brookes – Racing Red and the Invado Pro Ltd Rene Rinnekangas – Black/Gold. Built for riders who demand performance, versatility, and comfort in equal measure, both models push the boundaries of snowboard boot design with purpose-driven tech and rider-first details.
Encore Pro Ltd Mia Brookes – Built for All-Terrain Dominance
Inspired by the progressive style of UK rider Mia Brookes, the Encore Pro Ltd is a women’s-specific BOA® boot made to perform from steep alpine lines to side hits and slushy park laps. With a mid-flex profile (5-6) and Vans’ trusted Custom Focus BOA® Fit System, this boot delivers dialed-in micro-adjustability across three zones—perfect for focused heel hold and dynamic support.
Inside, the V2 UltraCush™ Smartwool Liner brings warmth and moisture control via Merino wool, while the V2 POPCUSH™ Footbed offers responsive cushioning for impact absorption and long-day comfort. A V2 Waffle Pro outsole with All-Trac™ cold weather rubber gives confident grip whether you're hiking the sidecountry or skating through the base village.
Backed by thoughtful design features like the Instep Flex Zone, PleasureCuff™, and Heat Retention 360°, the Encore Pro Ltd offers a precision fit and long-lasting warmth in a bold Racing Red colorway. Built for intermediate to advanced riders, this boot combines iconic Vans style with next-gen tech for women pushing boundaries.
Invado Pro Ltd Rene Rinnekangas – Versatility Meets Control
Co-signed by Finnish phenom Rene Rinnekangas, the Invado Pro Ltd returns as one of the most adaptable boots in the Vans line. With a flex rating of 5–7, it’s made to handle everything from park lines to powder days. The Hybrid BOA® Fit System merges classic lace-up control with rapid BOA® tuning, while the Custom Slide Guide enhances heel lock for those sketchy landings and late grabs.
The V2 UltraCush™ Smartwool Liner features Vans’ dual-density heat-moldable core for a perfect fit, plus a breathable, odor-resistant Merino blend to keep your feet dry. Underfoot, the V2 POPCUSH™ Footbed and TPU heel clip provide anatomical support with enough flex to tweak hard without sacrificing control.
Engineered for all-mountain, park, and street terrain, the Invado Pro Ltd rounds out its package with the V2 Waffle Pro outsole, Instep Flex Zone, Powercuff Strap, and Heat Retention 360°—offering total warmth, support, and boardfeel no matter where you ride.
Finished in a refined Black and Gold palette, this boot is ideal for intermediate to advanced riders seeking a perfect balance of customization, performance, and style.
Final Thoughts
The 2026 Encore Pro Ltd and Invado Pro Ltd boots from Vans embody a rider-forward philosophy, combining premium construction with practical innovations for unmatched versatility. Whether you’re chasing lines in the backcountry, lapping park features, or charging through groomers, these boots are built to elevate your experience from first chair to last lap.
