Let's start with the top-of-the-line MTE-3. The look is a fresh fusion of Vans' "Skate High" and mountain shoes.

And by covering the entire shoe with "GORE-TEX" and "Thinsulate", outstanding waterproofing and heat retention properties were realized. It is a heavy-duty pair that can be used from the city to the snowy mountains.

The MTE-2 features "HydoroGuard" and "PRIMALOFT" up to the ankle. In addition, the rubber outsole "All-Trac" provides a high grip, so you can wear it in a variety of situations, from city streets to wet trails, without worry.

Although less waterproof and less heat-retaining than the MTE-3, this model has excellent flexibility and is easier to use in town.
