The Vans Old Skool is a timeless canvas-constructed skate shoe. Universally accepted as one of the most versatile sneaker designs in history, the Old Skool, with its jazzy side stripe, waffle-patterned rubber outsole, and low-profile appearance, comes in an array of colorways. None, however, have the ubiquitous appeal as this black and white version. Simplistic yet sturdy black canvas and suede comprise the upper, while a vulcanized white rubber midsole and grippy gum bottom ensure the Vans Old Skool is a reliable wardrobe staple for years to come.
