The Vans Skate Classics and Pro ranges feature so much more than your typical surf store pair. If you see the checkered flag you can be assured you're buying a pair of Vans loaded with the latest footwear advancements and technology. 

Completely redesigned with performance in mind, the all-new Skate Classics line delivers more of what you need to enable maximum progression. Made with a fully revised upper, molded heel counter, locked-in tongue straps, and a recut of the DURACAP™ underlay, the Vans Skate Classics Sk8-Hi Pro Shoes offer an essential fit that is more breathable and durable where you need it most. The two-part foxing, featuring a tougher toe knurl, ensures heightened 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 feel, 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 Vans Skate Classics Sk8-Hi Pro Shoes gives you the iconic look you want—with all the performance benefits.
