Vans Andreas Wiig 2 snowboard boot

New for the winter 09/10 season, following Vans success with Andeas Wiig’s first pro boot last year (see article)we see the Vans Andreas Wiig 2 tech snowboard boot. It follows a similar colour scheme to last year and looks really fresh, just updating the plaid detail but leaving the rest of the boot’s look along gives a subtle but well done update to one of Vans best selling snowboard boots of last year.

Andreas Wiig has continued his dominance in competition and looks to be setting up for another great winter snowboarding season. Look out for more Andreas Wiig updates on Xumbrella.
