Pick of the Week: Vans Old Skool Shoe

Grab your skateboard and show off your best tricks in a pair of the Vans Old Skool shoes. A skate culture staple, this classic shoe has elevated from a skateboarder’s must-have to a classic icon. Debuting in 1977 as the then “Style 36”, this shoe has greatly shaped skate culture, and over the years has seen numerous art collaborations and endorsements by musicians and extreme sports stars.

Designed to be the ultimate in comfort for skate enthusiasts, the unisex Vans Old Skool shoe is a result of serious evolution in design and functionality. Its fabric upper offers a comfortable fit that’s both durable and lightweight. Built with a simple lace-up closure for an adjustable fit, its low-top silhouette enables plenty of ankle movement, critical to a fluid ride on the board.

A padded tongue and lining keep you comfortable through every radical trick you pull off, while a vulcanized rubber outsole with the Vans signature waffle tread delivers a sure, sturdy grip on and off the board. With the loopy signature side stripe showing who you ride with, you’re all set to carve up the skate park.

By taking a sleek profile and keeping it simple, the Vans Old Skool has stuck to its roots of what makes a great skate shoe. Whether you’re a serious skater, an enthusiast or just a fan of the sport, the Old Skool celebrates your individuality and creative expression.

No matter at which corner of the spectrum you stand, you can never go wrong by lacing up a pair of the Vans Old Skool shoes. And while you’re at it, check out the latest range of Vans products online from Sun & Sand Sports for the ultimate in skate culture and gear.
