The original Vans sidestripe classic, built for everyday skating, gigs and getting around town.
The Vans Classic Old Skool Shoes are the definition of a go‑to skate sneaker: low‑top, sturdy and timeless. Using a mix of durable suede and canvas in the upper, they balance structure where you need it with flex where you want it, backed by a padded collar that keeps your ankles happier on longer days. The vulcanised construction and signature waffle outsole give you that classic board feel and grip that made Vans a staple at parks and spots everywhere. Whether you’re actually skating them or just want an easy everyday shoe that works with pretty much anything, Old Skools always make sense.
