The Vans Old Skool Shoe is an original icon established in '77 that marked the birth of the famous Vans SideStripe which was originally just a random doodle by founder Paul Van Doren. Since its debut, this low-top silhouette has cemented its status as an icon across the skate, music, and fashion scenes. From '90s street skaters and punks to current hip-hop and fashion legends, the Old Skool has consistently been the go-to shoe for creatives who do things their own way.

Features
Sole
Vulcanized - “Vulc” shoes are light, flexible and break in quickly. These don't provide as much foot protection as cupsoles, but they are preferred if you’re looking for good board feel in a shoe with less weight and bulk.
Details
Original Waffle Outsole - Made with soles twice as thick so they would wear longer, this original formula combines durability with flexy board-feel to keep all the Vans' fans happy.
