This shoe was designed with comfort technology like an oversized ABZORB heel crash pad, an NB Comfort Insert, and Phantom Liner to keep feet feeling great. ABZORB midsole absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance.
The Old Skool was our first footwear design to showcase the famous Vans Sidestripe, although back then, it was just a random doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren. Since its debut in 1977, this low-top silhouette has established itself as an icon in the skate, music, and fashion scenes.
