Energy redirecting midsoles convert impact into responsive rebound

Completely redesigned with skaters in mind, the all-new Skate Classics line delivers more of what skaters need to enable maximum progression.

The Vans Skate Sport are made with a fully revised upper, molded heel counter, locked-in tongue straps, and a recut of the Duracap underlay, offering 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, boardfeel, support, and more durability.

Along with a new sidewall finish, Popcush sockliners for superior cushioning and impact protection, and old school V sidestripes, the Skate Sport Shoes give you the iconic look you want-with all the performance benefits that real skaters demand.

Reinforced toe caps withstand abrasive impacts, prolonging durability.
