Vans Snowboarding, 2023 Dillon Ojo Hi Standard OG Men's Snowboard Boots. Brown/Pink
OVERVIEW
The Hi-Standard OG is the best-selling Vans boot of all time, and continues to be the standard-bearer for classic style and modern performance. The comfort and familiar feel of a traditional lace-up closure gains additional support from key features like our Instep Lace Lockout and Internal Web Harness. With its V1 Waffle Lug outsole and iconic sidestripe, this timeless Vans style speaks for itself.
Dillon Ojo had the natural and unique ability to inspire and uplift those around him. This was undeniably visible through his snowboarding, his positive and charismatic personality, and his refined personal style. Dillon was one-of-a-kind, and this year Vans is celebrating Dillon’s ongoing legacy with a special Hi-Standard OG, the profits from which will go to the Dillon Ojo Lifeline Foundation. The boots’ Neapolitan colorway was inspired by a pair of Vans Customs that Dillon designed himself, and those Vans Customs were inspired by Dillon’s favorite flavor of ice cream. This is more than just a project honoring our friend. It’s the manifestation and culmination of the friendships that are at the core of our snowboarding culture. Ojo Forever and Ever. - Written by Cole Navin
