VANS SKATE OLD SKOOL 36 NAVY / RED

First released in 1977, the Style 36, aka the Old Skool™, was just the second skate shoe Vans ever made, and the first to feature the iconic Sidestripe™. Designed for and by skateboarders, the Old Skool’s first-of-its-kind suede toe cap truly enabled the progression of skateboarding. And now, Vans is honoring this heritage of innovation with the Skate Old Skool 36 , a brand-new skate shoe that maintains much of the original Style 36 silhouette and panel proportions, but with a modern twist.

The Skate Old Skool 36 combines a padded tongue and shorter toe cap—ideal for today's skaters seeking style and substance. As with the original, the 36 is designed for skateboarding, with all the performance upgrades that you can find in the Skate Old Skool™—from Vans' DURACAP™ technology to reinforce high-wear areas, ensuring the shoe withstands the demands of skateboarding to superior grip and board control thanks to Vans' SICKSTICK™ gum rubber compound and waffle sole, while the POPCUSH™ insole technology provides optimal cushioning, ultimate impact protection, and energy return for a smooth experience during even the most intense skate sessions
