Vans Skate Half Cab &39;92 (Taupe) Completely redesigned with skaters in mind, the Skate Classics Half Cab ’92 delivers more of what skaters need to enable maximum progression. The new sidewall finish, checkerboard flag, and “Skateboarding” branding are some of subtle differences to enhance this iconic style. The fully revised upper with molded heel counter, locked-in tongue straps, and a recut of the DURACAP underlay offers an essential fit that is more breathable and durable where skaters need it most. The two-part foxing, featuring a tougher toe knurl, ensures heightened board contact, and the redesigned gum rubber sole that made Vans famous has been made even better with SickStick rubber compound and an internal heel shank to deliver more grip, more boardfeel, more support, and more durability. Uppers made from 100% pig leather round out the upgraded design. The Skate Half Cab ’92 gives the look you want, with the performance benefits real skaters demand. Because skate classics are made for skateboarding.
