Vans Infuse Snowboard Boots Review

[@ODBracer]

Super easy to customize the flex and tension in the boot. If you struggle with toe box width or instep pressure these are great. The liner also has built in support thats awesome. I love that these can be stiff where they need to be but still allow lateral flex for getting outside the bindings. Also has the best stock footbed of any boot I have ever tried but aftermarket ones are still better. There is value in these boots that justifies the price.

[@Siikvision]

I have the Vans High Country x Hellbound and it seems like these boots are similar with the adjustable stiffness and combo lacing system. Ended up doing the same as you and removing the extra stiffener sticks for most of my riding. Great review!

What Colorway? I'v been looking for the black/white ones for a month now and cannot find any. I had to end up going with the Infuse Birch colored ones instead.

[@Siikvision]

@@nathanieliniguez750 i have the grey/black/red ones!

[@Mark-pz5xf]

Had a pair of these last season. They were great boots but way too much hassle getting them on and off. Laces, boa, lace cover zip and Velcro strap. Got on my nerves in the end so dropped them for a pair of Ride insano’s

I loved mind so much I bought a second pair (same color)and would buy a third if the timing was right.

[@nicholaskaye61]

No heel hold issues with these? Ive found nitro team/chase to be the best for my narrow ankles.. can't even find these to try for a new pair tho..

[@SnowboardRobot]

Nah no heel hold issues for me with these at all, I also have some Nitro Teams Pro MK which have a pretty solid/locked in feel for the heel - for me at least.

Hi, thanks for sharing, I ride salomon hifi 27,5 (9,5 US) but Im thinking about the Vans Infuse in 10 US since I heard they ran a little bit smaller. May I ask which size did you ride on the Salomon Launch? Thanks

[@ANETOKILLE]

Thanks for answering in the written reviews. I agree with you, my feet are 27,3 and 27,8, and the Infuse 2024 10US was too big, I have purchased the 9,5US and fits as good as I have with the Salomon HiFI 9,5US although the Salomon fit tighter and needed a lot boot fitting.

150+ days and mine are now too soft, apart from the flex, the boot is still perfect. do not advise the 2024 Infuse, vans tweaked the model and now the boa jams after a couple of days riding and they now don't fit me very well and give ankle pinch, same for the Verse.

[@SnowboardRobot]

Did the boa change in the new version? I haven't seen the new ones in person

[@karljeffrey8960]

@@SnowboardRobot looks very similar but they seem to be having lots of problems with their boa systems. The cable jams in the runner and then damages the cable and jams up the boa. I have found some older 2023 Verse boots on sale which seem ok and don’t give any ankle pinch. The new Verse pinched my ankles in the shop straight away, I believe it’s the front tongue of the boot causing the problem. Hopefully the 2025 infuse have been rectified

Hey I get a warning message (connection not private) when I click on the URL in your desc. FYI. Safari/YT won't let me go to your website. Update: I cannot even go to your site directly as safari warns me about an invalid certificate. Update: Chrome the same. Now it comes to mind that this has been the case since quite a while as I tried some days ago already. Check-in with your hoster asap and install a monitoring / regularily check your analytics

[@SnowboardRobot]

Oh ok, thanks for letting me know, I'll ask them and find out what is going on.

[@JohnnyEase]

@@SnowboardRobotIt's gotta be an issue with the SSL. Also, check your google analytics metric. That issue for sure has cost you significant traffic. Luckily, it's summer. Make sure you got a alarming systematic of some sort for such issues and for pages on your site with unusual so-called bounce / exit rates. Keep it up, I'm a fan

[@SnowboardRobot]

Hmm I can't recreate it at all - certificate is valid for all the combinations I can try. The host tested it with the main three browsers, no issue. SSL checks show it is valid, and I got some friends to test it on their phones, and with different browsers and it was running fine for them. Not really sure @@JohnnyEase

@@SnowboardRobotI am on holidays in Spain and logged in via their WiFi. It seems that their security service ("fortigate") deemed your website not trustworthy. When I connected via 5G, it worked. What irritates me is that I reproduced this issue back in Switzerland some days ago... maybe I am tripping. Anyhow, if you don't see a dip in your analytics, I must be an edge case. Kind regards

How's the width in the toe box?

[@SnowboardRobot]

Seems pretty decent, no pressure for me on the sides and I don't have a narrow forefoot.

[@ivantsipis4437]

I don't recommend getting these, they are kind of perfect but serious issues with quality. on the first day broken lace loop hole and on the second day the boot started flexing mad near the toes and overall i think there is a flaw in the boot because there is no places for flex to escape (1:1 lasting).

[@B-Rad-Gee]

Anybody know how to remove/adjust x-cage?

[@SnowboardRobot]

Do you mean cut it out of the liner?

[@pratchsiri7153]

I do not see this color on the web are these from this season ?

[@SnowboardRobot]

They are a couple of seasons old, the Arthur Longo versions. The current ones are a bit more plain bit.ly/3MFRyUJ
