I’ve currently got the Vans dk one off’s with Adidas gold liners and foot print insoles and they feel great, but that big rubber/plastic toe box is quite cold. My DIY solution is to wrap the interior toe box of the shell with reflective heat tape (the stuff they use on HVAC and car engines to ...

Biggest problems with vans boot is that you cannot really fit custom insoles in them as the original ones are really thick on the heel.
