Vans MTE was born from an outdoor life, because Vans knows that pursuing your passions doesn't always come with good weather forecasts. Rain, hail, snow, mud and wind - nothing stands between you and your next adventure. In fact, we think these all add some flavor to the experience. That's why Vans created MTE.

The new Sk8-Hi GORE-TEX MTE-3 is built to withstand all weather conditions with our most advanced and purpose-built technology. The boot is packed with more than 25 years of Vans snowboard boot experience and technology in a timeless, familiar style. The functional characteristics of the MTE-3 include the outsole made with All-Trac™, an exclusive MTE rubber compound that offers significantly better traction in all weather conditions with improved toe protection and a dynamic profile. The waterproof MTE-3 GORE-TEX package keeps you dry, a powerful 3M Thinsulate™ insulation package for cold weather thermoregulation keeps you warm, and a dual-density molded UltraCush™ insole with an OrthoLite® upper keeps you comfortable, which also happens. Plus, this unrivaled cold-weather comfort takes on a sleek, traditional Vans look thanks to the rugged, water-resistant camouflage textile and synthetic uppers.

Whether you're climbing snowcapped peaks or braving a downpour, you can head out with confidence knowing that every stitch of your outfit is in just the right place for ultimate versatility. After all, we know that it was never about the destination. It's about the stories you create during your journey.
