The Vans Sk8-Hi Shoe is the original skate high-top, established in 1978 as the shoe that changed the sneaker game and remains a classic on any stage. This legendary high-top uses sturdy suede and canvas uppers to allow for maximum attitude and features a solid foundation with reinforced toe caps and supportive padded collars. The signature rubber waffle outsoles deliver crucial grip, ensuring this shoe remains as innovative and groundbreaking today as it was when it first blazed onto the scene.

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.
Footbed
UltraCush™ - Light, predictable cushioning and foothold, the UltraCush™ sockliner has odor-eliminating properties for superior comfort.
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.
