A nice addition to the SS11 Vans vault collection features a new “one Peice” construction for the Vans Authentic. it seems everything this season is slimmer and back to basics, we have already seen similar silhouettes from DVS, Circa and Supra and this update from Vans seems to fit in well. The uppers feature really nice leathers in two colours, coupled with all white foxing tape.

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.

Vans is proud to introduce Andreas Wiig’s first signature model. The boots includes the Vans new Quadfit Asym-X thermal liner that works with the structure of the leg for superior fit, the Vans Flight Core Air Snowaffle Sole with a dual gel/air dampening cassette and RECCO® Rescue Reflectors. The boots also come in Black/White and Red/White/Blue.  Wiig took inspiration from his Viking roots for this boot which matches up with a snow jacket and trouser using an eye-catching yellow lumberjack plaid. If that is just a little too loud for your taste there is a classic looking grey and white pinstripe version.
