Vans Contra Snowboard Boot Details

How Backcountry describes the Contra Snowboard Boot

The ultimate in aggressive all-mountain freeride footwear, the Vans Men's Contra Snowboard Boot with its Boa Coiler Closure System sets the standard. Featuring an injection-molded backstay, the Contra is the stiffest boot in Vans' line. The new Boa Coiler reel assures no slack in the cables. It micro-adjusts as you move for a consistent, reliable fit. The updated Quadfit liner features dual-density EVA padding, heel-holding Achilles pads, and breathable wicking mesh. Antimocrobial footbeds provide protection against odor-causing bacteria. Vans' V-Tread Snowaffle Air Outsole increases sensitivity with better sole-edge traction. The compression-molded EVA midsoles feature forefoot gel pads for lightweight cushioning and zone-specific shock absorption. Dual heel gel-pads enhance stability and disperse impact, while a full-wrap heel cradle provides excellent support and response. The Contra comes equipped with a Recco reflector that could help rescuers locate you in event of an avalanche.

A Backcountry customer said

"The most comfortable stiff boot I have ridden. This is not as stiff as say the Driver X by Burton, but it is a near second. But I find the stiff flex and how well it fits to be more then comparable to any other stiff boot. Never had any problems with the BOA lacing and like using it a lot. BOA does not get as tight as I might prefer, but the stiffness of the boots makes up for it."

A Backcountry customer said

" Best boot I've ever owned I have the 06/07 Contra and it's a wonderful boot. I bought this boot for backcountry riding but it turned into my main boot. The only time I don't use it is in the park/pipe. I like my boots to be stiff and very tight. This is a very stiff boot. It is as stiff as any boot I've used but when it's on it doesn't feel like the typical stiff boot. It's actually comfortable!!! Even after hiking up a mountain!!! Also I said I like my boots tight. So tight that with laces I hurt my hands tightening them and I also with laces usually end up cutting the circulation off on my feet causing them to go numb. The boa saves me from both of these problems. Not only does it get as tight as I want with the ease of 2 fingers but by wiggling your foot around while tightening it creates very even tension and doesn't create pressure points. Also, if your feet do need a quick rest it takes .005 seconds to loosen them and about 20 seconds to tighten them back. "

" CONTRA These boots were a little stiff at first. I thought I was going to have problems with them, but once I worked out the kinks I fell in love. Easy to operate, and very comfortable. I would recommend wearing them a tad bit loose. If you like a lot of support around the ankles and a very stiff boot, these are for you."

A Backcountry customer said

" Not very supportive This may be the most rigid boot that Vans makes, but it's not as supportive as my packed-out Northwaves that have 40 days on them. The blingy metal hardware also dug into my ankles. Returned them."

A Backcountry customer said

" Nice boot Very nice and the BOA lacing tightens up nicely! A size 13 was about perfect for my size 12/5E feet... Something kept poking in one ankle but just uncomfortable and not painful..."
