The Vans Invado Pro Snowboard Boots rely on a hybrid closure system - traditional laces for the outer, Boa® for the liner - for what many believe is the optimal combination of reliability, adjustment, and heel hold, not to mention easy replacement if something breaks in the middle of a pow day. Medium-flexing, with a range between 5 and 7, the Invado Pros are a favourite of team riders like Dan Liedahl.
