The Old Skool was the first sneaker from Vans to feature the now-iconic wavy side stripe, or the “Jazz Stripe,” as it’s officially called by the brand. The Old Skool debuted in 1977, and was originally named the “Style 36.” It was also the first Vans model to incorporate leather/suede paneling, which increased durability in comparison to the all-canvas styles from the brand. Utilized only as a skate shoe for core skateboarders at first, the Old Skool eventually found its way onto the feet on non-skaters strictly for casual use, and today the timeless design is more popular than ever. The Old Skool now ranks as one of Vans’ top-selling and most recognizable models of all time. • Features classic Vans style thanks to the iconic sidestripe. • Leather toe-box and double stitching enhance durability at key skate abrasion points. • Padded collars for support and extra comfort at the ankles. • Cushioned sockliner for all-day comfort. • Vulcanized waffle grip rubber outsole for traction on or off the board. • “Off the Wall” rubber logo patches on each heel • Available in unisex sizing Great preowned condition with minimal signs of wear.
