Made with a fully revised upper, molded heel counter, locked-in tongue straps, and a recut of the DURACAP underlay, the Skate Classics Old Skool 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 further elevated with the SICKSTICK rubber compound plus an internal heel shank to deliver more grip, more boardfeel, more support, and more durability. Along with a new sidewall finish, POPCUSH sockliners for superior cushioning and impact protection, and a sleek checkerboard flag, the new Skate Classics Old Skool gives you the iconic look you want-with all the performance benefits that real skaters demand. It is made with sturdy suede and canvas uppers. ###shogun-image-section### Vans Skate Old Skool - Black/White UK 5.
