Vans Skate Authentic Shoes
Completely redesigned with skaters in mind, the Skate Classics line delivers more of what skaters need to enable maximum progression. Vulcanized shoes made with a fully revised upper, molded heel counter, locked-in tongue straps, and a recut of the DURACAP™ underlay, the Skate Classics Authentic Shoes offer 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 Skate Authentic gives you the iconic look you want-with all the performance benefits that real skaters demand. They are made with sturdy canvas uppers.
